Aussie Awareness Day, Part 2.

Welcome to the next installment of Aussie-music Awareness Day. These bands have sentimental value to me and all hold a special place in my heart. I was introduced to them by my amazing friends in Newcastle while staying there for a couple months. Much love to all the Novocastrians!!

So anyhoo, fasten your seatbelts. Ready, set, GO!

I'd heard so much about these guys from their fellow proud Novocastrians who hail from the (very amazing, beautiful and laidback) Newcastle and upon listening to them, got hooked. The guys moved London and since have laid Paperadio to rest. Drummer Joel currently plays for Hillsong London and Badkatt and the Wolf.

These indie rockers from Perth make some good music. Loved their older material, but their new stuff is good too. I really like their vocals.

I loooooooooove these guys, not just because they're from Sydney but because their band members are really amazing guys and they sound goooood! Formerly known as The View although when I first met them at Blackstump, they were still known as Anonymous Gift. In all honesty, I went to check out their band solely because of their name. Had the chance to hang out with them a few times and they're really fun guys. They have since changed their name a couple of times and added an additional guitarist (Marcus Beaumont) and developed into an even more amazing band. They also have the cutest artwork always. Go listen now!! If you don't click on any of the other bands, at least click on this one :)

Another band from the Central Coast, NSW. Lots of guitars, lots of drums, great vocals all make it a good listen. In some way they remind me of Kings of Leon. 

That's all for today. Until next time.... xoxo




Aussie Awareness Day, Part 1.

Disclaimer: Before you think I'd break out into random Aussie jargon, I'm here to tell you that no, I will be writing in the basic Malaysian English that I've been taught... please continue reading.

I heart Australia. Most people who know me know that. But they might not know that one thing I really love about Australia is the fact that there's an entire community of bands and musicians who write, sing and play really amazing tunes! These same people tirelessly and relentlessly tour their beloved country, forming really unique friendships with one another, and some have even become recognized in the US and UK. Most of all I love their unique flavour and sound, not to mention the Aussie accent showing up every now and again in their vocals.

So starting today, my friends, is Part 1 of Aussie-music Awareness Day! ENJOY! xoxo

First up:
One of my favourite Aussie bands ever. Hailing from Melbourne, they have since said their farewells but their music lives on. Former lead singer (Andrew Kitchen) is currently flying solo. Check out his music too.

Second:
Another favourite. Hailing from the Central Coast, NSW (love that place!) this band has been quiet for a while. However, if you're in Sydney this October, you can catch them at this years Black Stump Music Festival.


Thirdly,
I've never seen them play but I have heard a lot about them. Hailing from the best part of Australia, Sydney!! (okay, actually they're from Blue Mountains) with a really refreshing acoustic feel. Soon to say their farewells, will be playing their final shows on their current tour and will also feature at this years Black Stump Music Festival.

Three for today and more to come in the days that follow.... till next time, Aussie! Aussie! Aussie!, Oi! Oi! Oi!
