In this episode I catch up with new Hands Like Houses vocalist, Josh Raven, post-recovery and pre-tour for his first live shows with the band. This might just be my favourite episode yet, as another bucket-list item checked off! We talk all things HLH, including joining the band and transitioning between projects, vocal techniques, moving into new themes and musical styles, collaborating with old and new friends, Josh’s current bookworm reads, and of course preparing for the upcoming tour (starting this week!) and his top 3 current Aussie artists.

Here, in Part 2 I caught Some Heard Trouble right before they went on stage, chatting about their recent and upcoming releases, mental health and burn out, personal and professional development within the band, their top 3 Aussie acts right now, and more!

I caught up with The Last Martyr and Some Heard Trouble at Freeza and Yo Bendigo’s ‘BendiGLOW’ Youth Fest in September for my first FACE TO FACE interviews in over a year and a half (!!!). Look out for Part 2 with Some Heard Trouble coming up next!

James from a couple episodes ago - I HEARD A RUMOUR(S) - makes a noble return and gives the run down on Australian Owned, Melbourne based Drumstick and Apparel company, Big Sound Percussion.

In this one, I’m chatting to Ben and James from Melbourne alt-rock band Rumours, who have the launch for their latest single ‘Blood Eagle’ next Friday (July 15) at Cherry Bar. 

A slightly more lighthearted one, where we go over the new release, the upcoming single launch, mental health and supporting each other, dream collaborations, their songwriting process based on their influences and inspirations, and what to expect from them going forward.

Check out this weekend’s sister episode with Yours Truly as well!

In this short episode, I chat with Josh Walker from local rock band Stuck Out about their new EP, the process and meaning behind it, the niche of the Australian music scene, collaboration and inspiration, and of course his current Aussie faves.
