Episode 91: Wilsen Conn, George Inglis & Brooke Kymberley – Fairtrade Narcotics
I’m going to make a bold claim that if you’re listening to this podcast, you’ve got a very good taste in music. That’s why I think you’d do very well to check out Melbourne’s own Fairtrade Narcotics. A genre-defying six-piece...
Episode 90: Alex Cameron & Ben Marwe – Bad//Dreems
For close to 15 years now, I’ve been a massive fan of Adelaide’s Bad//Dreems. Regarded as one of Adelaide’s finest purveyors of pub-rock (a term they initially shied away from), Bad//Dreems first formed back in 2011, and wasted no time...
