Intelligent and thoughtful in their singular way, the pair talk candidly with 2SER Music Director Andrew Khedoori about their approach to songwriting – their inspirations, motivations and how to build that tower […]

Go/No-Go Album Launch + The Conversations – Friday 24th May

May 21, 2013 by tandarra

Ever wondered what it would sound like if Icehouse made love with The Cure using synthesisers as gentle marital aids on a beach holiday? Go/No-Go will make you feel like you are in an early eighties BMX night time montage of teenage sleuth reporter chasing rebel graffiti artist through rainkissed alleyways and pinball parlours. It’s a good feeling.

TERRY SERIO’S MINISTRY OF TRUTH + ROSIE McDONALD + RACHEL ZELLA – Sunday 5th May

May 4, 2013 by tandarra

Terry Serio’s Ministry Of Truth play gorgeous and gritty Australian urban roots music: songs of love, loss, disillusion, addiction, brushes with the law, divine providence and redemption… tall tales and true that draw their musical and lyrical inspiration from the deep well of authentic roots country styles and themes with discernible influences from the likes of Hank Williams, Lou Reed and Gillian Welch. The band began in a Surry Hills lounge room when Terry played a series of recently written […]

TIM GUY RECORD LAUNCH + CHARLIE GRADON – Friday 12th April

April 3, 2013 by tandarra

Dreaming of a Night Mango is the mysteriously titled fourth album from Tim Guy. A review of one of the lead tracks reads ‘ Tim Guy’s latest single buzzes with static; the acoustic guitar hums thick as honey. Tim sings in a soft, worn voice about being lost in his home town and being a stranger to the people he knows – the sad, nostalgic sounds of a guy who has been away and realises he can never come back again.
