The Jezabels Announce New Album ‘Synthia’ + 2016 Australian National Tour
“It takes a ballsy band to play the Sydney Opera House after just two albums… their ambition was given a pretty fair chance by a band which plays well enough to impress, a batch of songs which in their best moments have a soaring reach…and a singer who grew in confidence through the night until she was performing a lap dance on a woman from the front row and making it seem ridiculous and perfect.” The Sydney Morning Herald

Live Review : The Beach Boys at The Royal Theatre, Canberra – November 13, 2015
Review by Natasha Wyborn – Photos by David Jackson
It’s hard to believe it’s been over 52 years since The Beach Boys were introduced to the world with their first major hit. Founding member Mike Love and life member Bruce Johnston entertained a capacity crowd in the nations capital for over two hours last night. Delivering to the audience exactly what they wanted by saturating them with nearly 40 hits from over 5 decades of recording with their onstage extravaganza. Love cemented his stage presence from the outset with an opening 7 song medley including ‘Surfer Girl’ and ‘Surfin’, to name just two.

Live Review : Mini Mansions at GoodGod Small Club, Sydney – November 12, 2015
Review by Scott Singh
While supporting Tame Impala on their national tour, Mini Mansions took a moment to play a laid back, grassroots show at Sydney’s GoodGod Small Club. Exchanging the open stage and flair of a larger venue for a stripped back, tight venue. The experience at GoodGod was a pure representation of the band’s skill and appeal to music lovers.
