Los Angeles quartet Death Valley Girls don’t fuck around. They’ve already released a fantastic full-length album this year (probably the best of their career), but apparently that’s not enough. The group have also just announced their debut tour of Australia—the greatest country on earth goddammit!—and dropped another spectacularly hypnotic single, ‘I Am A Wave’.  If […]

You likely already recognised Russell Fitzgibbon as the bassist for Babitha or as the taller half of legendary Sydney dance duo Fishing. Since the 2020 lockdowns, however, you’ve probably recognised him as Skeleten. Now, after a lengthy run of singles, we’ve finally been treated to Skeleten’s debut full-length, ‘Under Utopia’. Upon announcing the record, Fitzgibbon […]

So much music was written and recorded during the pandemic, it seems like a moot point to bring it up. In the case of Flyying Colours’ third full-length record, however, it seems important. This is an album marked by a sense of isolation and introspection; the capturing of a specific moment in time. ‘You Never […]

Group Therapy is officially in session. We’re beyond excited to announce a brand-spankin-new gig series that’ll be rounding up all the best acts from around the country to descend upon the Mary’s Underground stage. Bring your friends, bring your neighbour, your mum and dad, your bus driver, the bloke who ruffles through your bins looking […]

Liberty Hall House Party is back, baby. In May, we hosted the first one of these things and it was completely out of control (if you were there, you know). We’ve been champing at the bit ever since to go again.  On Friday, August 11th, you can catch live sets from Mildlife, Lazywax, First Beige, […]

When I was younger, songs played in my dreams every night for almost a whole year. Research told me that the lyrics to these songs may be trying to uncover some buried feeling or subconscious message. I was told that only I would understand the meaning of these lyrics.  All these years later, I still […]

HERE NOW is coming up this Sunday, June 11th, and to whet your appetite for all the amazing food that will be on offer, we caught up with the festival’s food curator, Palisa Anderson, to get the low-down on each member of the lineup. Annita Potter (Viand) “Reverse migrant cooking at it’s best in Sydney. […]

The wait is almost over. HERE NOW is taking place at Macquarie Place Park this Sunday afternoon, and because we’re excited as all hell, we spoke to the festival’s booze curator, Mike Bennie, to hear about all the drink providers that’ll be quenching your thirst this weekend. Black Snake “From Narrabri in North West NSW, […]

We have a lot of great artists come through our venues, but we’ve decided it’s time to shine a light on some of the phenomenal support acts we’ve got coming up.

Nearly fifteen years ago, Melbourne’s Children Collide released one of the great Aussie rock albums of the 2000’s. Take a trip back in time with us and give this fantastic album its due.

We get some really great bands come through our venues; both headliners and support bands. The purpose of this article, however, is to focus solely on a couple of upcoming support acts we’re particularly excited to see. If you’re also feeling excited about these artists by the conclusion of this article, get down early to […]

To help combat the holiday season’s evil Westfield-style Christmas music, we’ve enlisted noted Christmas enthusiasts Joseph Liddy & The Skeleton Horse to create a new type of x-mas playlist.

This Thursday evening, the boys from LoFi Wines will be coming to Mary’s Newtown for Natty Smash, conducting a full wine list takeover, showcasing a range of a range of local and international producers. But first, to give us a better idea of some of the wines they’ll be pouring, we asked Tom and James […]

Each of Noah Dillon’s albums and EPs seem to capture a specific moment in his life. It’s understandable, then, that his debut album ‘Kill The Dove’ is a snapshot of life in lockdown, but perhaps more importantly, life in love. The discourse between these two themes—love and isolation—I’d say is the guiding force of ‘Kill […]

I imagine COVID lockdowns really fucked with Crocodylus. For years, the band have toured non-stop around the country, putting on notoriously high-energy live shows, simultaneously releasing great EP after great EP. What does a band like that do after being told they’re not allowed to play shows or travel interstate? What comes of all that […]
