Ahead of their mammoth 22-date national album tour for October - December, I chatted to Maz from WAAX on their latest album ‘Atleast I’m Free’, with the tour kicking off this coming week on October 6.

“You might consider At Least I’m Free something like a second debut album for WAAX — a creative and emotional rebirth that’s resulted in some of the band’s finest, punchiest songs ever” and that’s exactly what this ep is all about. Songwriting, hardships, mental health, industry struggles, and coming out the other side. Enjoy.

Madi is a long-time friend and live events and boudoir photographer and model, who started out down here in VIC and has moved up to Brisbane to follow her passions. Having covered locals like Tonight Alive, Trophy Eyes, Northlane, The Amity Afflication and internationals such as All Time Low, Paramore, Fall Out Boy, Good Charlotte, and Mayday Parade, moving up in the world with her business, Madi is one to watch!

We catch up with Nick & Tristan from Brisbane band, Waxflower, about songwriting, search engine optimisation, mental health, developmental changes, and of course their latest single 'Soak'.

In this minisode I chat to Aussie indie-rocker Jack Bratt. We go over his change to a solo career, his creative process, the story behind his latest single ‘The Outsider’, staying humble, his love of basketball and Rolling Stone, some doggo chats, and more!
