WOLFMOTHER ANNOUNCED AS SPECIAL GUESTS ON AC/DC BLACK ICE AUSTRALIAN TOUR - FEBRUARY/MARCH 09

AC/DC the greatest rock and roll band on the planet, who have sold over 200 million records worldwide, return home to Australia in February 2010 as part of the Black Ice World Tour.And we here at IMC are beyond ecstatic to announce that our very own WOLFMOTHER will be joining AC/DC taking the role of special guests for this mamoth tour.

Having recently completing the major task of performing to 120,000 people at both the Sydney & Melbourne massive Sound Relief benefit  concerts, Wolfmother are currently holed up in a studio in Los Angeles recording the follow up to their monumental Grammy & ARIA  winning album - with the working title being, 'Cosmic Egg'. With famed UK producer, Alan Moulder at the helm, Wolfmother's sophomore album will be a magnificent return to the epic sounds that have been so universally acclaimed.'

Wolfmother stepped out of the studio last Friday to play a show amongst he masses (& an odd consortium of stuffed wildlife) at the Los Angeles Natural History Museum. There they ripped through a repetoir of songs old and new to an LA crowd that’s been starved of Wolfmother in recent times - & in a show that saw the new lineup perform for the first time in the states.

Now whilst we all wait for the impending release of Wolfmother's new album, they will be jining the lenendary and iconic AC/DC for their first Australian tour since January 2001 which will - without any question - be one of the most spectacular rock shows ever staged in this country.

Dates and details announced are:

PAUL DEMPSEY - SOLO SHOWS IN MELBOURNE AND SYDNEY

NEW SINGLE "OUT THE AIRLOCK" OUT MAY 15TH THROUGH EMI

 

After 12 years, 5 albums, hundreds of shows, festival appearances, gold and platinum awards and comments about how tall he is, Something For Kate front man Paul Dempsey is spending 2009 stepping out on his own to release his first solo album in the middle of the year.

Recorded at a friend’s house on the NSW central coast with producer Wayne Connolly (Youth Group, Josh Pyke, You Am I) and mixed in LA with Doug Boehm (Elliot Smith, French Kicks), the album is a marked departure from the heavier, more intense SFK sound. Paul plays every instrument on the record, and uses space, atmosphere and economy in every song.

This change in approach is perfectly illustrated on the first single from the album, "Out The Airlock" which features just Paul, an acoustic guitar and the barest of accompanying instrumentation to incredible effect . The single was available for a short time as a free mp3 download from Paul’s sitewww.pauldempseymusic.com, and is available exclusively from itunes on 15th May.

Paul will play two very special, intimate solo shows in Melbourne and Sydney to preview the entire album as well as drawing from the extensive Something For Kate catalogue at the Northcote Social Club on Wednesday 3rd of June and Annandale Hotel on Thursday 4th of June. .

ESKIMO JOE NATIONAL TOUR DATES


The wait is finally over for Eskimo Joe’s Australian fans to see their favourite live act on the just announced ‘INSHALLAAUSTRALIAN TOUR’ throughout July and August 2009. This will be Eskimo Joe’s only tour for 2009 and demand for tickets will be huge due to the fact that every Eskimo Joe show sold out on their last album tour. Tickets are on sale from Monday May 4 from www.eskimojoe.net and the usual outlets.

Eskimo Joe have just returned from a European tour and have come home to the news that their latest single, ‘Foreign Land’ came in as the #1 Most Added Song at radio and after two weeks on air is already riding high in the Top 20 of the Australian airplay chart.

‘Foreign Land’ is first single from Eskimo Joe’s much-anticipated fourth album ‘Inshalla’ which will be released on Friday May 29. ‘Inshalla’ is an invigorating, exciting fresh sound for a trio intent on embracing the world around them and the band can’t wait to perform songs from the new album, as well as their vast collection of previous hits, on the Inshalla Australian Tour. Joel Quartermain said the following about the upcoming tour:

"Having played shows abroad we are really excited to be getting in front of our home audiences with a new record and new songs to play. We've put a lot of thought into this show hoping everyone will have a unique experience."

For a band whose sound has taken giant leaps forward, from 2001’s ‘Girl’ to 2004’s ‘A Song Is A City’ and on to the fourtimes-platinum mega hit ‘Black Fingernails, Red Wine’, Eskimo Joe have stepped up to again prove why they’re one of the most heralded and enduring rock bands around today.

SOUND RELIEF CONCERT ANNOUNCED

IMC IS EXTREMELY HONOURED TO CO-PROMOTE TOGETHER WITH CHUGG ENTERTAINMENT, MARK POPE MUSIC AND MICHAEL GUDINSKI (ON BEHALF OF THE AUSTRALIAN MUSIC COMMUNITY)
TWO VERY SPECIAL BENEFIT CONCERTS FOR VICTIMS OF THE VICTORIAN FIRES AND QUEENSLAND FLOODS - SOUND RELIEF
SATURDAY MARCH 14, 2009 – MCG & SCG

NEWS UPDATE - BEE GEES' BARRY GIBB JOINS SYDNEY TO PERFORM GREATEST HITS

Hot on the heels of the news that Melbourne’s SOUND RELIEF concert is now sold out and Kylie Minogue’s confirmed guest appearance in Melbourne, the producers of this Saturday’s benefit concerts are thrilled to confirm that the legendary singer/songwriter Barry Gibb of The Bee Gees is returning to Australia specifically to perform at the Sydney event.

Barry Gibb, backed by some of Australia’s hottest contemporary musicians including Jon Farriss from INXS on drums, will take to the stage on Saturday night to perform some of the biggest songs of all time.

One of the most celebrated and successful artists and songwriters in the history of popular music, this will be Barry’s first major concert performance in Australia since his last appearance with The Bee Gees at Sydney’s Olympic Stadium in 1999.

Many Australians will always consider Barry Gibb and his famous siblings to be bona fide Aussies. The trio honed their distinctive style and launched their music careers while still schoolboys in Queensland, before taking off to conquer the world and going on to become one of the biggest-selling recording groups of all time.

Barry Gibb has always retained a close spiritual connection with Australia and said “I am truly proud and honoured to be a small part of such an incredible event. I shall be there with wings on my heels to help in any way I can the victims of this terrible disaster, let’s make it count for all of them. I’m coming home.”

This weekend’s SOUND RELIEF shows are guaranteed to become one of the defining concert events of our generation, all for such an important cause. Do not miss out on being involved!

While the SOUND RELIEF show in Melbourne is now a sell-out, new oval tickets have been released for the Sydney event but are selling fast.

BOB EVANS TICKETS ON SALE NOW!

Goodnight, Bull Creek;   Hello, Australian Tour

 


It’s been awhile since Bob Evans packed up his gear and took the band on a full national tour -
and with good reason because Bob has been busy writing and recording his new album
‘Goodnight, Bull Creek!’. Bob’s April/May tour is a great chance to hear the new music live so
don’t miss out when tickets go on sale Thursday February 19.

As a special offer exclusive to www.bobevans.com.au, when you purchase your tickets to the
“Goodnight, Bull Creek!" tour you have the option to also pre-order an album that will be
delivered to your home for the April 3 album release date. When you buy either a ticket or a
ticket + album, you will automatically be entered into the draw to win a signed Maton guitar
(the same model Bob plays); the prize will be drawn on completion of the tour.

‘Goodnight, Bull Creek!’ is Bob’s third album and includes the beautiful first single ‘Someone So
Much’. The single is out digitally now and a multi track single will also be available digitally on
February 27 with the inclusion of the additional album track ‘Power of Speech’.

Kangaroo Valley, Kiama and Sydney all played a role on the partially animated clip for
‘Someone So Much’ as did many mythical creatures – all of whom can be viewed here:
www.youtube.com/bobevansmusic. From March 27 you can also purchase the clip on iTunes.

Bob will be joined on the national "Goodnight, Bull Creek!" tour (WA date to be announced
very soon, keep an eye on the website for details) by his fantastic new band - Malcolm Clark
(Sleepy Jackson), Hugh Jennings (End of Fashion, Bob Evans), Ben Witt (The Chemist) and Louis

BRITISH INDIA - BACK FROM THE UK

“...one of Aussie rock’s best releases this year, if not the best.”
– Vivienne Hill, Tsunami Magazine

“Thieves will see the band rise to all the right places.” – Ben Preece, Time Off


Melbourne band BRITISH INDIA continue to live up to
their reputation as one of Australia’s hardest working bands.

As soon as they finished the massive launch tour for their hit second album Thieves, British India
quietly slipped away to the UK for a not so quiet overseas adventure. British India flew to England, got
deported, returned in time to sell out their London showcase, impressed label execs with their pop
prowess and ravaging live show – all this before daredevil guitarist Nic Wilson found time to impale
his feet on an ancient castle gate pike, forcing the band to cancel their Glasgow show.

Now that British India have sowed those royal oats, these Oz indie mavericks
return home to play headlining shows, and a heap of festival dates in Australia!

Beginning next week, British India will play Sugarland Tavern in Bundaberg
on Thursday 9 October, then O Dowd’s Rockhampton in Rockhampton on Friday 10 October,
before they take on the Sounds Of Spring Festival in Brisbane on Saturday 11 October.

The band have also announced shows at Waves Nightclub in Wollongong on Friday 24 October,
the Peninsula Lounge in Moorooduc on Saturday 1 November, and two shows at the Corner Hotel
in Melbourne on November 3 & 4 (Melbourne Cup Eve & Day) as well as these festivals: Sounds In The Ground
in Sydney on Saturday 18 October, The Village Fair Festival in Bathurst, NSW on Saturday 25 October,
Homebake (sold out) in Sydney on Saturday 6 December, and Falls Festival (sold out)
in Lorne, VIC on Monday 29 December, with more shows to be announced soon.
Phew! Australia’s hardest working band indeed.

It’s an exciting time in British India’s growing empire.

ANGUS & JULIA STONE'S DEBUT ALBUM "A BOOK LIKE THIS"

IS OFFICIALLY PLATNUM!

 

Angus and Julia Stone’s debut album ‘A Book Like This’ has officially reached platinum sales in Australia! The album has so far featured three beautifully crafted singles“The Beast”, “Wasted” and “Just A Boy.” Released just under a year ago, the Stones have quietly been achieving major success.

With a recent national sell out theatre tour of Australia under their belt, the brother and sister duo are busy taking their music to the world. This month they are playing at summer festivals throughout UK/Europe including Holland, Germany and Scotland. They have received rave reviews from their performance at the Big Chill Festival in England last weekend, with The Independent describing them as “Going down like a brief spell of sunshine here, you should watch this space: they have a subtle ethereal touch – especially the exquisite ballad “Just A Boy” …that may sail them into the mainstream.”

Next stop for Angus and Julia will be the US, where they will launch ‘A Book Like This” in September and then follow up with shows in November.

PNAU RETURN TO EMBRACE AUSTRALIA

 

Ladies and Gentleman; boys and girls; and of course, all lovers of the ARIA award winning

PNAU…get ready to put your dancing shoes on as we are extremely proud to announce
that the visual & aural spectacle that is this most amazing act will be returning to Australia for
limited shows coinciding with their forthcoming Splendour In The Grass festival appearance.

Having virtually stolen the ‘live limelight’ at the Big Day Festivals and thereafter selling out
all Australian concert dates on their headline album tour (& with fast and furious demand),
PNAU have been spending their time conquering international markets performing many shows plus
an array of European festival dates whilst being lauded by the worlds press. It's no secret that
one Sir Elton John has been espousing his admiration of Pnau across the Universe whilst introducing
our dancefloor heroes to an array of international pop star luminaries.

Celebrating the release of a brand new single, ‘Embrace’ (featuring the stunning vocals of Pip Brown
from Ladyhawke) from their hugely acclaimed third self titled album, PNAU return to perform only
three massive sideshows with a twist of styles featuring their special guests, the very awesome
Operator Please and DJ extraordinaire, Sam La More.


Proudly Presented by the Nova Radio Network, details are:

As has been proclaimed within their bio, very rarely has any sort of emerging band received the acclaim and
privilege awarded to PNAU over the past years. It’s like they passed straight through the pages of the book on
‘how things were meant to be done’, and their ascent has been astounding and continues to climb

78 SAAB RELEASE NEW ALBUM & ANNOUNCE SHOWS

 

78 Saab reside in good company. Over the past ten years, they have produced timeless music that sits comfortably alongside the likes of Died Pretty, The Church and The Triffids. They present a world that is uniquely their own, but also a part of the legacy of those great bands who came before them. Now, 78 Saab are set to play their first shows in quite some time.

'The Bells Line' is the culmination of two years writing, thinking and rehearsing. It's the self-imposed “luxury” of artists disinclined to rush things lest they create anything less than what they're aiming for. On their first two albums, ( “Picture A Hum, Can't Hear A Sound” and “Crossed Lines” both on Ivy League), 78 Saab established their reputation by creating their own world of wide open skies, city living, country remembrances and constant dreaming, all set to a soundtrack provided by Ben Nash's unique sweet voice, Jake Andrew's distinctive melodic guitar lines, and the loose metronomic swing of Nicholai Danko on drums and Garth Tregillgas on bass.   Songs such as “Sunshine”, “No Illusions” and “Beat Of Your Drum” set a standard of timeless song writing ability for which this Sydney four piece have become much loved.

'The Bells Line' is an album full of atmosphere. This new collection of Ben Nash portraits celebrates how small our lives are, set against the backdrop of the wider world and enormous landscapes we live in. The sky, satellites, stars, sleep, dreams, nostalgia and sleeplessness are the recurring themes in Nash's lyrics. The widescreen ambition in the playing of the band and sounds curated by producer Wayne Connolly are the perfect accompaniment to the lyrical sentiments. The magic of 78 Saab lies in their ability to take subjects that are every day and within our immediate experience, and lay a gauze over them, making the every day seem dream-like, magical, and beyond the mundane.

CUT /// COPY 

‘IN GHOST COLOURS NATIONAL TOUR’

JUNE 2008

With the stardust having barely settled following the release of Cut Copy’s chart topping sophomore album In Ghost Colours and having dazzled audiences with their appearance at the recent V Festival, come June the masters, purveyors and destroyers of indie-dance Cut Copy (Dan Whitford, Tim Hoey & Mitchell Scott) are set to embark on a full-fledged run of national headline dates supported by 2 DFA special guests, happy house hero The Juan McLean (USA) & The Shocking Pinks (NZ).

The Cutters comet, otherwise known as 'In Ghost Colours', rocked the world when it came hurtling to Earth on March 22, tearing up both the Aria Album Chart and the iTunes Album Chart smashing the #1 spot on debut. Having been four years in the making, Cutters were in shock and utterly over the moon upon hearing the news of taking home the top slot.

Coinciding with the forthcoming tour will be the ‘official release’ of the epic sax-house anthem Hearts On Fire. Blazed out in its new album-version glory, Hearts On Fire will be accompanied by the additional remixing work of the Midnight Juggernauts, Holy Ghost! & Knightlife.

Cut Copy’s live show has been likened to that of a lunar eclipse, a perfect harmony of celestial events which results in thousands putting down what they were doing to shed glittery tears of joy at the phenomena. With tickets set to sell out in record time, fans should get in early to avoid missing out. Tickets on sale Thursday 24th April at 9am – details below.

PNAU ‘WE ARE BACK’ TOUR 2008

As the world now knows, Australia’s electronic crossover pioneers, PNAU, are absolutely smashing it right now.

The new album started with a huge amount of "album of the year" type reviews; it picked up a J Awards nomination for the best record of the year;
Sir Elton John had the boys over for high tea and declared the record to be the best Australian album released in ten years (& has since been spreading
the 'Pnau word' worldwide). Pnau then dominated the Boiler Room at the Big Day Out festival this year - mind you, in a berth between Dizzie Rascal
and LCD Soundsystem. They scored their first plays on the UK’s Radio 1 with Pete Tong and are now releasing ‘Wild Strawberries’ EP in the UK in
April - and finally, have secured sizzling new Moshi Moshi artist Breakbot (France) to remix current cross over smash hit single ‘Baby’.

And now for the crowning glory! At last we are excited to announce Pnau’s much anticipated “WE ARE BACK” national tour. Played in the key
of “Hell Yeah’, if this tour had hands, it would slap you on the backside! Adding to the line up are disco pop wonderkids, Van She, & the continental
sounds of the Paris underground via the fabulous Beakbot.

This massive tour is proudly presented by triple j, Video Hits, Myspace, InTheMix.com.au & IMC

Die!Die!Die! Promises Promises - Australian Tour April 2008

NME "Promises Promises…a rumbling fistfight bedecked with all the bite, bile and urgency of Pixies wrestling Big Black on the precipice of Hell."

Music Australia Guide **** "Hot melodies, droning guitars, brilliant vocals…a classic blast of punk energy"

Monster Children Magazine "Promises Promises is a boon."

Groupie ***** "Insanely amazing second album from New Zealandish post hardcore punk band Die Die Die - Kings of the post millennial punk scene."

Oyster Magazine "This is post punk for a new generation."

MX Newspaper "Listen, listen, listen."


Hailing from New Zealand's deep, dark south, the rawkish post-hardcore punk band DieDieDie have long made it their mission to not only deliver enigmatic, blistering tracks on searing releases - but to bring their brutal live show to as many towns as they can, as often as possible.

Due to bring their brand new record Promises Promises to an eager east-coast of Australia this April - off the back of a recent jaunt to SXSW and a breakneck tour of the USA and UK - the group are set to keep this reputation intact.

Having previously worked with the legendary Steve Albini (Nirvana, Pixies, Shellac) in Chicago, and Dale Cotton (HDU, Dimmer) on their brilliant Locust Weeks and eponymous EPs, Promises Promises found them in the studio with New Zealand's Shayne Carter.

Revisiting their brawling, abrasive sound, Promises Promises and its pummelling, primal rhythms and shard-like guitar work looks set to enhance the act's well earned mis€t-savant reputation.

Promises Promises is out now on Etch n Sketch Records

ANGUS & JULIA STONE

TOURING NATIONALLY IN JUNE

With their debut album “A Book Like This” officially now released in the UK and a 30 date overseas tour scheduled for April/May incorporating the UK,
Ireland and Europe, the Northern Beaches duo Angus and Julia Stone will definitely be looking forward to heading home for their national tour in June.

Angus and Julia are no strangers in the UK as they spent most of March supporting Newton Faulkner on his sold out UK tour performing to over 20,000
people and also opening for David Gray in Manchester. “A Book Like This” (out now thru Capital / EMI) has already received amazing reviews from the often cynical UK press with
MOJO giving it 3 stars, and UNCUT magazine 4 stars and exclaiming “their understated magnetic live shows here surely mean this Australian brother-sister
duo's sizeable homeland following will soon be matched in the UK”. The superlatives keep coming including Nottingham Evening Post stating that “there’s
certainly enough evidence here to justify the hype with it's whimsical and dreamy folk album packed with beautiful melodies” and The Clash magazine highlighting
the special packaging “The Australian brother-sister duo’s debut reminds you of the pleasure of the physical album”.

In Australia, Angus & Julia have just played to thousands of people at The Blues Festivals around the country and the album “A Book Like This” has already
sold 50,000+ albums. While the pleasingly unassuming Angus & Julia are refreshingly modest about their talent and remain nonplussed regarding their success,
their star undeniably continues to ascend at pace.

The third single from the album, “Just A Boy” an Angus lead track is at Radio/TV now.

Tickets for Angus and Julia's June tour will go on sale Thursday, April 10.

A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FROM CUT COPY HQ

It's time to get seriously excited as Australia's masters, purveyors & shining stars of disco mashed pop....none other than Cut Copy, are on the verge of releasing the next installment from their massively anticipated new album, the guitar driven single ‘So Haunted’.Being the follow up to the hit single 'Hearts On Fire', this appropriately titled new track, is the second taste of what's to come from their forthcoming long player - 'In Ghost Colours' - due for release in the first quarter of 2008 thru Modular Records. Being an epic in itself and written in three parts, this new song is best described by the band as a three part odyssey whereby the verses are all de-tuned beds of noise originally recorded within Cut Copy's bedrooms; and with choruses reminisce of sprawling ELO harmonies and lush guitars (don't pretend you don't know ELO!); and an outro being the result of a prog out session at legendary DFA studios earlier this year.

By the way, 'So Haunted' features the co-production talents of Tim Goldsworthy (DFA, The Loving Hand) and demonstrates Cut Copy's ambition to want to experiment with popular music song structure, with the resulting find harmony amongst the noise. Need we say more.

Coinciding with the new release of this hit single, Cut Copy will step out from the rehearsal (& recording) studio and onto the stage performing a limited selection of live dates across the east coast of Australia with special guests, Melbourne's DAMN ARMS (also with a new album, 'The Live Artex' released Nov 3rd) and Cutters Records dance floor sensation discovery, Knightlife (who has just released his debut vinyl piece 'I').

                                       

                                           "So Haunted" available on 12" and Itunes on Nov 5

JET TO PERFORM AT CENTRE SQUARE AND AFL GRAND FINAL

THE AFL has announced that the internationally-acclaimed Melbourne rock band Jet will perform at the MCG on the last Saturday in September as part of the 2007 Toyota Grand Final celebrations.

Jet will perform pre-match on the MCG, as well as providing post-match entertainment at Centre Square, the corporate hospitality village which will be established for the first time in 2007.

The AFL's Chief Commercial and Broadcasting Officer, Mr Gillon McLachlan, said the introduction of Centre Square had allowed the AFL to contract a world-class act for football's biggest day.

“We are thrilled to have Jet perform on the MCG as part of the revamped Grand Final pre-match entertainment and also at Centre Square after the match,” Mr McLachlan said.

“The Toyota AFL Grand Final is the biggest day on the sporting calendar and in recent years the AFL has taken significant steps to build the entertainment in the lead-up to the match, as well as the post-game celebrations.

“This year's establishment of Centre Square has also provided us with the resources to secure an international act in Jet.”

Formed in suburban Melbourne, Jet burst onto the world music scene in

2003 with their debut album Get Born. The album sold over 3.5 million copies and won many awards, including the 2003 MTV Music Award for Best Rock Video and six ARIA Awards in 2004. Jet's second album, Shine On, was released last October and the band is currently touring in Europe. Jet's members have split football allegiances - brothers Nic and Chris Cester are vehement Collingwood supporters while Mark Wilson and Cameron Muncey are passionate Geelong fans.

Jet's lead singer Nic Cester said: "We're thrilled to be playing at one of the greatest sporting events in the world. Growing up in Melbourne and following the footy all of our lives and getting to play at the Grand Final is every kid's dream. Of course we imagined that we'd be kicking the winning goal on the final siren, but playing a couple of our tunes to 100,000 people before the game itself is the musical equivalent.

"Somehow Jet have earned a reputation for enjoying a night out, so we're happy to add to that reputation and be part of the inaugural Centre Square post-match entertainment the AFL is putting on. We'll be asking for Dim Sims and footy franks on our rider for sure," Nic said.

Mr McLachlan said Centre Square, the village for 4300 corporate guests, would now be held at Punt Road Oval in 2007 and the public live site would move from Punt Road Oval to Federation Square, where the Live Site will run for six days.

“The premiership team – as in previous years – will be presented at the Live Site now at Federation Square and will be the conclusion of six days of free entertainment,” Mr McLachlan

“The Centre Square is a collaborative project with the AFL and clubs working together to deliver an enhanced Grand Final experience. This project is the next step in the development of Toyota AFL Grand Final Week.”

AFL Chief Commercial and Broadcasting Officer Gillon McLachlan is available for further comment. Please contact Michelle Clyne: 03 9643 1926.

78 SAAB NEW ALBUM AND SHOWS ANNOUNCED

 

78 Saab reside in good company. Over the past ten years, they have produced timeless music that sits comfortably alongside the likes of Died Pretty, The Church and The Triffids. They present a world that is uniquely their own, but also a part of the legacy of those great bands who came before them. Now, 78 Saab are set to play their first shows for the year. They have announced two intimate shows in Melbourne and Sydney in September, ahead of the release of their third album on Ivy League Records, 'The Bells Line'.

'The Bells Line' is the culmination of two years writing, thinking and rehearsing. It's the self-imposed “luxury” of artists disinclined to rush things lest they create anything less than what they're aiming for. On their first two albums, ( “Picture A Hum, Can't Hear A Sound” and “Crossed Lines” both on Ivy League), 78 Saab established their reputation by creating their own world of wide open skies, city living, country remembrances and constant dreaming, all set to a soundtrack provided by Ben Nash's unique sweet voice, Jake Andrew's distinctive melodic guitar lines, and the loose metronomic swing of Nicholai Danko on drums and Garth Tregillgas on bass.   Songs such as “Sunshine”, “No Illusions” and “Beat Of Your Drum” set a standard of timeless song writing ability for which this Sydney four piece have become much loved.

'The Bells Line' is an album full of atmosphere. This new collection of Ben Nash portraits celebrates how small our lives are, set against the backdrop of the wider world and enormous landscapes we live in. The sky, satellites, stars, sleep, dreams, nostalgia and sleeplessness are the recurring themes in Nash's lyrics. The widescreen ambition in the playing of the band and sounds curated by producer Wayne Connolly are the perfect accompaniment to the lyrical sentiments. The magic of 78 Saab lies in their ability to take subjects that are every day and within our immediate experience, and lay a gauze over them, making the every day seem dream-like, magical, and beyond the mundane.

If you want to be among the first to hear the stunning new songs from 'The Bells Line', get yourself along to 78 Saab's shows in Melbourne and Sydney this September.

Thursday, Sept 13 - East Brunswick Club, Melbourne

Saturday, Sept 15 - The Hopetoun Hotel, Sydney

SOMETHING FOR KATE ANNOUNCE 'THE MURMUR YEARS' TOUR

    

One of the most important careers in contemporary Australian music will be drawn together into one package when acclaimed Melbourne trio Something For Kate release The Murmur Years, a detailed two-disc collection (track listing below) that hits stores on August 18. To celebrate the release of this milestone record, Something For Kate will be embarking on a national tour titled ‘The Murmur Tour' (dates below) with tickets going on sale July 5.

“We've made five albums now so I guess it's   worth looking back at what we've done so far,” notes the band's singer, guitarist and songwriter, Paul Dempsey. “It's surprising, kind of surreal, to hear over ten years of work put together.”

The 33 track double album, which combines material selected by the band from their early EPs as well their five studio albums – out of which two albums have reached #1 and two albums have reached Top 10 on the Australian charts – also features a brand new track, “The Futurist”, written and released to mark the release of The Murmur Years (named for the then Sony Music imprint the band signed to in 1996).

“This could have been called ‘Being John Howard'. It's about fear and money and security and living a cloistered little existence in a meek, conservative utopia where the future doesn't exist. I think it's quite funny but I'll probably be on my own there”   explains Dempsey of the urgent, soaring “The Futurist”, which will be debuting to expectant fans via radio on July 16.

 

Something For Kate also recently recorded a special ‘Originals Session' for Itunes featuring a plethora of live tracks from their back catalogue intertwined with interview segments in between songs that give the listener deeper insight into the band's music and career. The SFK Itunes Original's session is currently sitting at #3 on the Itunes album chart. A true testament to the band's loyal fan base and their ability to generate strong sales in the digital world.

That sense of stasis has never been a problem for Something For Kate – Dempsey, bassist Stephanie Ashworth and drummer Clint Hyndman – who have out-stepped expectations since their earliest gigs. The group has enjoyed a stellar career to date, with album sales in excess of 500,000 copies and a host of accolades: 11 ARIA Award nominations, JJJ's Album of the Year and repeatedly making the top ten of the Hottest 100, twice being bestowed with Album of the Year by the readers of Rolling Stone, as well as nods for Single of the Year and Best Band, and also picking up Best Live Band at the Live Music Awards.

From the tiny stages of Melbourne's indie venues to playing before 50,000 people on the main stage at the Big Day Out, Something For Kate have set a benchmark for powerful, invigorating rock music. Paul Dempsey's lyrics have proved personally compelling while capturing the tenor of the times, while the band's live performances have repeatedly sold out venues across the country and created a legion of dedicated fans.

The Murmur Years in no way marks an ending for Something For Kate, but it does make clear what an outstanding career they've had to date: 33 tracks can barely contain the vision and verve they've already encompassed.

A SPECIAL EVENING WITH TONI COLLETTE & THE FINISH

    

Ladies & gentlemen, after much fast yet careful planning, it is with great pleasure that we once again are able to present the exquisite sounds and superb writing talents of the iconic Australian actress Toni Collette together with her most talented and amazing band, The Finish, who will be performing a special one off ‘warm up’ Sydney show coinciding with the their appearance on the massive Live Earth Australia concert at Aussie Stadium. With the recent release of the brilliant new single ‘Look Up’ from the stunning debut album, ‘Beautiful Awkward Pictures’ , Tonii has taken time off from the live stages returning to her ‘day job’ promoting the forthcoming release of the movie ‘Evening’. If there's one track on the 'Beautiful Awkward Pictures' album that shines more brightly than others, it is 'Look Up'. Fans, reviewers and radio programmers that have heard the album have all highlighted this track as a glorious and uplifting piece of song writing by Toni Collette, coupled with an arrangement that allows her vocals to really shine and the band to rise with her to heart pounding heights.

The album 'Beautiful Awkward Pictures' is a modest collection of musical gems, at times raw, at times rich, and unapologetically eclectic in style. The lush string arrangements support Toni's powerful but vulnerable vocal skills while piano strains permeate the entire recording.

This is Toni's debut album & it contains eleven self-penned tracks written over the last ten years and charts her growth as a person and an artist. Laying herself open in her usual honest and unaffected way, these lyrics are often poetic, intimate observations of life and the world around her and this makes for a heady, soul-stirring mix.

'Look Up’ is accompanied by a stunning video directed by the very talented Paul Goldman & Alice Bell (the genius partnership behind the award winning movie, Suburban Mayhem) which can currently be seen on rotation on all music orientated programs and channels.

Please make sure to get in early as tickets will sell fast for this show!

Speaking on behalf of Live Earth international Lily Sobhani, Live Earth’s Global Head of Events stated

“Live Earth Australia will kick off 24 hours of music spanning all 7 continents to focus the world against global warming,” Sobhani said. “Over 100 headlining artists ranging from Madonna to The Police to Wolfmother, all of whom are donating their time to perform at the concerts, will inspire an audience of over 2 billion people. Live Earth is designed to trigger a mass movement to combat our climate crisis. The climate crisis touches everyone, everywhere. Live Earth is about motivating people in every corner of the planet to ‘Answer the Call’ and make meaningful and lasting changes in their lives to combat global warming.”

Live Earth is a monumental music event that will bring together more than 2 billion people to combat the climate crisis. Live Earth’s 24 hours of music across 7 continents will deliver a call to action and the solutions needed to answer the call. Live Earth marks the beginning of a multi-year campaign led by The Alliance for Climate Protection to move individuals, corporations and governments to take action. Whilst this event is about raising awareness, not money, all nett proceeds will go to The Alliance for Climate Protection, other international non-Government organisations (NGOs), Australian NGOs and projects on the ground in Australia yet to be announced.

Staging Live Earth Australia is the same team of event producers that came together to mount the celebrated WaveAid tsunami benefit concert in Sydney in 2005. They are the Australian concert promoter Michael Chugg of Chugg Entertainment,, Mark Pope Music [event producer of the ARIA Awards] and us very proud folk here at IMC Agency.

“We’ve all been involved in putting on some big gigs over the years, but nothing rivals the scale of this one,” said Michael Chugg. “We’re thrilled to be opening the show for the world and rapt about showcasing some of Australia’s finest talent to the rest of the planet. We’d also like to thank those artists who are so generously giving their time to help spearhead one of the world’s greatest challenges of the 21st century”.

Climate change expert Dr Michael Molitor explained how all the Live Earth concerts around the world will be as green as possible, implementing a new Green Event Guidelines that organisers hope will become the model for carbon neutral concerts and other live events in the future.

“The key message of Live Earth is that everyone can – and must – be a part of the solution,” said Molitor. “Everyone can take simple measures that will greatly assist the global effort to reduce carbon emissions. Live Earth is driving global awareness about the solutions and engaging people around the world to undertake personal actions both at home and at work.”

Live Earth promoters have worked closely with the NSW Ministry of Transport and, in what is a first for any major event staged in the Moore Park precinct, the ticket price for Live Earth will include free use of public transport [all buses, trains and ferries] to and from Aussie Stadium. This will minimise the carbon footprint created by getting the crowd to and from the show. Organisers will encourage all concert attendees to use the public transport supplied.

AT LAST.....CUT COPY 'Hearts On Fire' National Tour 07

      NEW SHOWS JUST ADDED!!!


Get excited - Australia's shining light of disco romance Cut Copy make their long awaited return with a brand new single 'Hearts On Fire', being the first taste of what's to come from their forthcoming long-player due in July this year, (& being the much awaited follow on from the debut album 'Bright Like Neon Love'). 'Hearts On Fire' takes their former sound of discovering electrified lost memories into a new galaxy of cosmic dance pop that is bound to take the world by storm.

Coinciding with the new release of this hit single, Cut Copy will step out from the rehearsal (& recording) studio and onto the stage performing live on their first headline tour (after last conquering the masses touring with the Good Vibrations Festival). Showcasing a set with a stack of new songs plus a few old favourites for good measure, this will be the first opportunity to hear these brand spanking new tunes from the original darlings of the indie dance scene.
And for good measure, Cut Copy have invited their friends, MERCY ARMS & electro kid wonders, RIOT IN BELGIUM to join them (although not that Riot In Belgium will not be appearing in Perth)

Whilst the nation waits for this highly anticipated new album, make sure to note these limited dates in your respective calendars as, undoubtedly, all shows will sell out fast.

SOMETHING FOR KATE and ANGUS & JULIA STONE Live at The Shed

'The Shed was born into humble beginnings at the 2006 Sydney Royal Easter Show. Far be it from us to imply this was a miracle similar to a tale featuring a sole guiding star and a humble manger…but let’s just keep that in mind. Nestled amongst the madness that is the Show, in 2006 The Shed was a respite from the Showbags, rides and as cute or smelly as they are, the animals. It was a place to dance, a place to rock out. Last year’s stars included the Whitlam’s, Alex Lloyd, Richard Clapton and a cast of who’s who in Australian music. But let’s not brag – or maybe we will. As the Show is one of the biggest events in Australia, and due to the awesome demand, The Shed will now be rebuilt and feature acts on all 14 days.

Each day will kick off with smooth jazz grooves from some of Australia’s leading exponents of their art. Follow this up with some of our country’s best Improv stand-up comics doing their own brand of 'Thank God you’re here' Shed style. By 4pm its getting thirsty so we will amp up proceedings with The Crème of Crop with stars like Aria award winners You Am I, Something For Kate, Ash Grundwald, The Fumes, Josh Pyke, Killing Heidi and party favourites Mental As Anything. So tune in… turn on and drop by Sydney’s newest 'it' venue. But don’t wait too long as it only lasts two weeks and then like that star (or manger) its gone'

Monday April 9th at The Shed

  - Angus & Julia Stone - 2:30 - 3:15pm

  - Something For Kate  - 5:00 - 6:00pm

ART OF FIGHTING - NEW ALBUM, NEW DATES


On the eve of an international jaunt that sees the band perform in the UK and Japan, Art of Fighting announce local tour dates in support of their beautifully intuitive third album Runaways. Supporting them throughout the tour will be the wonderful SubAudible Hum.

Described by the band’s front man, Ollie Browne, as “open and relaxed”, the songs captured on Runaways are a mix of the introspective, insightful, and brutally honest. Included among them are the two radio favourites ‘Free You’ and ‘Eastbound’.

Unlike previous Art of Fighting recordings, which were carefully prepared before entering the studio and putting songs to tape, Runaways continually evolved throughout the recording process. With the band happily living ordinary lives in their home town, the genesis of Art of Fighting’s third album involved a long and collaborative process which saw the four band mates relax as they took the time to let their new songs unfold.

With the help of engineer Steven Schram [Ground Components] at the Guruland and Martin Street studios [both in Melbourne], Art of Fighting set about capturing their live sound on record. Long time collaborator Tim Whitten joined the band for mixing in the closing stages of 2006.

“When we play live the sound is very stripped back, very spacious,” says Ollie. “We wanted to capture that as much as possible.”

“We wanted this album to be very direct, warm and honest: the sound of us in a room.”

ALEX LLOYD Last shows in Australia before moving to London with Special Guests, Joel Plaskett (Canada)


During the course of his illustrious career, the very talented and multi award winning singer/songwriter, Alex Lloyd, has achieved a phenomenal degree of success across Australia. Now having released his much anticipated fourth (& self titled) studio album, Alex is once again pursuing greater heights with a temporary move to London for 2007 to write and collaborate for his next album as well as including touring commitments in the UK & Europe.

Having had an exceptional year with the radio hits, ‘Never Meant To Fail’ and ‘The Wonder' from the platinum selling self titled album, it's now time for Alex to concentrate on new material
Despite now becoming a household name, Alex Lloyd is, quite simply, one of the finest and most popular singer-songwriters Australia has produced. His three solo albums – 1999’s ‘Black The Sun’, 2001’s ‘Watching Angels Mend’ and 2003’s ‘Distant Light’ - have collectively sold more than half a million copies and following the release of each album Alex has been awarded an ARIA for Best Male Artist (2000, 2001, 2003).

As a special treat, Alex Lloyd will be performing two intimate (full band) shows at Sydney's iconic venue, The Basement, & with a very limited capacity. With special guest support, Joel Plaskett (with band touring Australia and being a major star in his home territory, Canada) these shows are destined to sell out fast. Details as follows:

NEWSFLASH - TONI COLLETTE & THE FINISH ANNOUNCE NATIONAL TOUR

Up There Management & IMC Agency Proudly Present

An Evening With The Rather Brilliant
TONI COLLETTE & THE FINISH
NATIONAL TOUR 07

In conjunction with the release of the stunning new single ‘Look Up’


Ladies & gentlemen, after much fast yet careful planning, it is with great pleasure that we once again are able to present the exquisite sounds and superb writing talents of the iconic Australian actress Toni Collette together with her most talented and amazing band, The Finish, who will once again be performing a select few (& rare) set of dates coinciding with the release of the brilliant new single ‘Look Up’ from the stunning debut album, ‘Beautiful Awkward Pictures’. If there's one track on the 'Beautiful Awkward Pictures' album that shines more brightly than others, it is 'Look Up'. Fans, reviewers and radio programmers that have heard the album have all highlighted this track as a glorious and uplifting piece of song writing by Toni Collette, coupled with an arrangement that allows her vocals to really shine and the band to rise with her to heart pounding heights.

The agreed recording ethos was that performance would hold sway over studio trickery, feeling over formula, and with this release that becomes very obvious. Producer and friend, musician Willy Zygier and award-winning engineer and producer Paul McKercher have taken a back seat and allowed Toni & the Finish to stretch their musical wings and soar, delivering four minutes of wonderous inspiration.

The album 'Beautiful Awkward Pictures' is a modest collection of musical gems, at times raw, at times rich, and unapologetically eclectic in style. The lush string arrangements support Toni's powerful but vulnerable vocal skills while piano strains permeate the entire recording.

This is Toni's debut album & it contains eleven self-penned tracks written over the last ten years and charts her growth as a person and an artist. Laying herself open in her usual honest and unaffected way, these lyrics are often poetic, intimate observations of life and the world around her and this makes for a heady, soul-stirring mix.

Having now found limited time within an unbelievably hectic work schedule, Toni Collette and the Finish will (for the first time since the release of ‘Beautiful Awkward Pictures’) travel the entire nation playing extremely limited dates in each capital city. Selling out all shows on her last limited run of dates, this is a tour not to be missed.

'Look Up’ is accompanied by a stunning new video directed by the very talented Paul Goldman & Alice Bell (the genius partnership behind the award winning movie, Suburban Mayhem) which can currently be seen on rotation on all music orientated programs and channels.

Currently in the midst of universal acclaim and many a prestigious award nomination for her brilliant performance in the hit movie 'Little Miss Sunshine', our very own Toni will be taking some time out from the 'limelight' (so to speak) so as to pursue this, the first National tour for Toni Collette And The Finish. Make sure to get in early as tickets will sell fast!

WOLFMOTHER COME HOME FOR A WHIRLWIND TOUR IN MARCH

After packing major venues right around the world during 2006 WOLFMOTHER have announced that they will return home in March / April for a handful of very special concerts.

It’s been a triumphant year for the Sydney trio with over a million global sales for their acclaimed debut album and the accolades are still rolling in.

Internationally, their CD made the Best Albums lists in Spin, NME and U.S. Rolling Stone for 2006, while the band was nominated for a Pollstar Concert Industry Award in the category of Best New Touring Artist.

The trio has also been nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Release and they are hot tips to also receive a nomination at the Brit Awards.

Here at home WOLFMOTHER swept the ARIA Awards late last year (including the Best Group Award) and they were also handed the gong for the publicly voted Channel V Oz Artist of the Year. They recently blitzed the Falls and Southbound festivals propelling their album back into the Aussie top 10 an extraordinary 60 weeks after its initial release!


Now 2007 will start in the same way that 2006 finished … with lots more WOLFMOTHER touring.

The band will hit the ground running in Japan for a whirlwind run of dates at the end of this month, before heading back to the UK, Europe and Canada in February/March to play their largest headline tour of those markets to date including sold out shows at London’s famous Hammersmith Apollo.


They will then head home for this very special tour in March/April. Special guests on the band’s own shows will be post punk sonic rockers Wolf & Cub who are also touring with Wolfmother on most of their overseas dates.

ANGUS & JULIA STONE ANNOUNCE OZ & UK TOUR

The beginning of last year saw the formation of Angus & Julia Stone when they decided it made much more sense to work together than playing music alone.   They pulled their demo songs together and created their debut EP “Chocolates & Cigarettes” which has gone on to do pretty exciting things.

Whilst in the UK in the latter part of the year, they were invited into Chris Potter's studio (The Verve/Richard Ashcroft) to record…..   In the meantime Fran Healy from UK band Travis who is a label mate, heard their debut EP and also invited them to his house to record.   These recordings will be released as a companion piece with the first EP, initially as a single disc entitled “Heart Full of Wine” on 3rd February then as a double EP on 10 th March.

                              

Angus & Julia Stone will be heading out on their ‘Heart Full of Wine' tour in February in both Australia and the UK along with picking up some Festivals along their travels.   They will also be releasing some lovely self-directed videos from these EP's which you can view onwww.youtube.com/angusandjuliastone in the coming months.   … as Music Week UK rightly stated…. “Catch them before they go electric”.

THE MORNING AFTER GIRLS RETURN HOME

"Imagine what Primal Scream would sound like if Bobby Gillespie layered his years of experience on top of one another...Imagine if The Kills sounded like they wanted to have sex with you rather than each other......8/10" -Simon Hayes Budgen, NME

After ten months of extensive touring back and forth across the Atlantic, The Morning After Girls have finally announced their return to Australia. 2006 saw them playing packed out rooms in the UK at Reading and Leeds, T in the Park, Latitude, Oxegen and in the US at the CMJ and SXSW music festivals. On top of that they played some coveted gigs on the NME Brat Tour, Zane Lowe's Gonzo Tour (BBC1 & MTV2), Kerrang Most Wanted and Headlined Club NME... plus radio session highlights with Xfm, BBC6, Kerrang, KCRW and KEXP. During this globe-trotting experience, TMAG have shared the stage with the likes of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Duke Spirit, The Dandy Warhols, The Warlocks, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Charlatans, The Editors, Shout Out Louds, and The Bravery to name a few. Before returning to Australia in early December, The Morning After Girls have just completed a sold out three-week London residency and completed a tour with The Brian Jonestown Massacre across the UK. On the way home they did stop off to headline their own show in Japan as well as a coveted instore at Apple s flagship store in downtown Tokyo.

So what's next? Their long awaited and much anticipated debut album of course! With demos done at the Dandy Warhols home studio in Portland, Philadelphia, LA and in hotels and band rooms all over the world, there's a wealth of new material, much of it work-shopped live.

DIE! DIE! DIE!

Australian Tour & New EP 'Locust Weeks' in stores November 24th

Connecting the musical dots between Dunedin, Auckland, Chicago, New York
City, and London, Die! Die! Die! are a three-piece band originally from
Dunedin that in just over a year have solidified their reputation as one
of the best bands to emerge from that part of the world in over a
decade. With an emphasis on pummeling, primal rhythms shot through with
shard-like guitar work, Die! Die! Die! create a driving sound that is
immediate and visceral, while retaining enough melody to keep their
songs in your head long after their set has come to a close.

Formed in November 2003, Die! Die! Die! quickly bought a van and started
playing as many shows in as many towns as they could in both New Zealand
and Australia, including both Homebake and Meredith festivals, support
slots for Wire and Franz Ferdinand, two large-scale national tour
supports already this year for the reformed Straightjacket Fits and then
the renamed Shihad, and numerous shows in the USA and UK.

Die! Die! Die! left New Zealand in March 2005 for an extensive tour of
the USA - where they recorded their debut album with Steve Albini
(Nirvana, Pixies, Shellac) at his studio Electrical Audio in Chicago -
before heading to the UK and Sweden. Although the recording went well,
the tour was cut short by bereavement. It was around this time that
their debut eponymous six-track EP recorded with Dale Cotton (HDU,
Dimmer) was released in New Zealand.

Things began to move quickly from there, with the Straightjacket Fits
tour, the return to the UK to master the album at the famed EMI Abbey
Road studios with engineer Steve Rooke, and the Shihad national tour all
completed in a matter of months. Now having toured the US as sole
support to Aussie compatriots Wolfmother, a stunning debut at March
2006's SXSW Festival, a high profile residency in New York City and a
massive amount of industry buzz, the band is embarking on two UK tours
to support their first UK single, Ashtray! Ashtray! in August-October
2006. Come early November, the band will return to New York City for
CMJ, and then will be touring New Zealand in November and December to
support their upcoming EP, out on Etch N Sketch in Australia.

IMC Presents 'AN EVENING WITH GOTYE'

Gotye is Wally De Backer. He plays drums, percussion and piano, and he writes, sings and produces tracks at his home, in Mentone, Victoria, Australia. Gotye’s sound is a melting pot of samples from sources far and wide, mixed with Wally's home recorded sounds to form original songs that are as much influenced by the ’80’s British electro of Depeche Mode and mock-lounge pop of Roxy Music, as the scratchy sounds of old noir soundtracks and majestic orchestras of John Barry and Henry Mancini.

The cut’n'paste approach of hip-hop djs also figures prominently in the arrangements, inspired especially by the musicality of San Francisco's finest sample- composers, DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist. The results are songs that both reference and incorporate styles and sounds of the past, while showcasing Wally's unique songwriting in a broad web of sonic environments. Wally songs display the diversity of his listening interests, incorporating sounds from a wide spectrum of sources. They encompass a variety of styles, tempos and textures in their mix of organic and electronic sources, experimenting with form and tone while nevertheless clearly exhibiting Wally's love of pop music (in any of its manifestations and mutations over the last half a century).

And with such an eclectic yet brilliant synopsis of the world that is Gotye, we here at IMC are excited to announce that the extremely talented Wally De Backer will be presenting his Gotye extravaganza live on stage
with a cast of thousands (well....sort of) - and including a string section to cover those complex bits & pieces so richly portrayed on the album. It's ONE SHOW ONLY with tickets on sale now - see below for further details

TONI COLLETTE & THE FINISH Proudly Present The Debut Album            'Beautiful Awkward Pictures' and RARE Tour Dates

Ladies & gentlemen, after much fanfare and many a cryptic hint, it is with great pleasure that we are finally (and officially) able to present the exquisite velvet voice and superb writing talents of the iconic Australian actress Toni Collette, who on October 7, will independently release her debut album ‘Beautiful Awkward Pictures’ with her band The Finish. Whilst the wait has seemingly been a virtual eternity, it is both important and of interest to note that Toni has always sung - in fact as a teenager she sang jingles for Triple J and of course we all remember her beautiful vocal performances in highly acclaimed films ‘Cosi’ and ‘Connie and Carla’.

As the story unfolds, it is obvious that Toni has been writing music for a very long time – even one of the tracks on this album was penned when she was 22 years old. Of course with her busy schedule as a well respected global screen star it has been difficult for Toni to find the right time to record, release and tour her music. Now in 2006, Toni Collette & The Finish will perform a select number of very special album launch shows this coming November culminating in a unique performance at the sold out HOMEBAKE Festival in December at Sydney’s Domain, along side the crème of Australia’s contemporary artists.

'Beautiful Awkward Pictures' charts Toni’s fluctuating emotions as she’s worked her way round the globe and reflects her growth as a person and an artist. Laying herself open in her usual honest and unaffected way, Toni’s lyrics are often poetic, intimate observations of life and the world around her and this makes for an eclectic, soul-stirring mix. All eleven tracks on this stunning album were penned by Toni who enlisted the talents of Willy Zygier to co-produce and Paul Mc Kercher (Augie March/ You Am I/ The Cruel Sea/ Eskimo Joe) to mix the album. Toni Collette & The Finish features accomplished musicians in their own right, including Toni Collette’s husband Dave Galafassi on drums and percussion, singer/songwriter Glenn Richards (Augie March) guitar, Pete Farley on bass and David Lane on piano.

Of this ‘beautifully awkward’ album so long in the making, Toni Collette said,
“I never wanted this record to be a big loud statement. I just wanted it to be quiet, organic and very old school, cruisey in a lo-fi kind of way. It’s like in life there are the people who talk a lot and need a lot of attention and then there is someone who is really quiet - I want my record to be like that quiet person. The more you get to know it, the more you like it”

The title track from the album is a rich musical gem, fragile and unapologetically eclectic in style. The lush string arrangements support Toni's powerful but vulnerable vocal skills while piano strains permeate the entire recording. There are no tracks on the 'Beautiful Awkward Pictures' album that showcase better the gorgeous, haunting voice with which Toni has been blessed. It was one of the last written before recording the collection and as such is a reflection of where Toni currently sits as an artist. She is, like us all, susceptible to the normal human frailties that we associate with the loss of love and yet determined to strive to maintain bliss. The stunning video for ‘Beautiful Awkward Pictures’ was shot at dawn on a beach south of Los Angeles by the 'Aussie Mafia', a loose collection of Australian film makers living in America. Produced and directed by Nash Edgerton this piece of art also sees his brother Joel make a brief cameo and was filmed as a one shot take, it captures the mood of the track magnificently.

Of the forthcoming live performances, Toni Collette said,
“This music has been living within for so many years. It's really exciting and quite a relief to share the songs and make it a reality. This is definitely the record I wanted to make. I am so lucky to play music with the band that I have and we're all looking forward to the live shows in November.”

THE CHURCH - MAGNETIC STRIP TOUR

Fresh from a pivotal five week US tour culminating in a sold-out show at the American Music Hall in San Francisco, the church arrive in Australia for a theatre tour that brings an end to the last two years of “intimate and acoustic” concerts.
Electric and dynamically explosive – the new album “ Uninvited, Like The Clouds” finally gets its full launch at home, four months after its critically acclaimed release through Liberation.

"the church are, at heart and their best, psychedelic electricians, and their full-volume shows in recent years have been ringing endorsements for their stubborn longevity."
- David Fricke, Rolling Stone USA (Live at Irving Plaza, 10 August 2006)

Having fully explored the “acoustic re-invention” of songs old and new, with their 2004 CD “ El Momento Descuidado”, the church return to full electric mode in support of their latest offering “Uninvited, Like The Clouds”.
“Uninvited, Like The Clouds” has received adoring praise all around the world and the band’s acoustic album launches here in June were completely sold out.

"This album, arriving in the 26th year of their career, is a triumph from the beginning ... It distils every facet of their distinctive sound without necessarily borrowing from their classic songs, whether it is their dreamy, hypnotic art rock or psychedelic pop rock.
- Kathy McCabe DAILY TELEGRAPH SYDNEY - 4/5 STARS

The church – magnetic strip tour coincides with the release a new four track single “Easy” which features three exclusive live acoustic tracks: Day 5 (‘the new album’s most timeless moment’) and two classics from the band’s 26 year catalogue – “Constant in Opal” and “Its No Reason” – the latter a seldom performed favourite.

Another “sometimes not included”, but greater favourite “ Under The Milky Way”, saw its performance of a lifetime when the band combined with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra to open the Commonwealth Games earlier this year.

Joining the church – magnetic strip tour as special guests will be Sydney’s The Valentinos. Hitchcock’s Regret front man Mark Moldre will also join the line-up in Sydney and Melbourne.

THE BLOCK PARTY TOUR

Starring DJ Peril, N'fa, Suburban Intellect & local guests

Hot on the heels of DJ Perils ‘King of The Beats’ and N’fa’s ‘Cause and Effect’ solo artist albums comes the announcement that the two members of 1200 techniques and up and comers Suburban Intellect are hitting the road for a national tour which is guaranteed to be one to remember.

With over 20 scene-shaping years in the hip hop biz under his belt, there are few Australian artists who could claim to know as much about rocking crowds as Peril. As a DJ, Peril is known Australia wide for his ability to get even the most static dancefloor warmed up and grooving, supporting everyone from Busta Rhymes to M.I.A, Talib Kweli, Supernatural, Bahamadia, Lincoln Park and Jean Grae among many others. As 1200 Techniques DJ/producer, Peril’s deft studio skills saw the trio transcend their underground status to become the first Australian hip hop group to cross over into the mainstream, winning an ARIA in 2002. Now Peril has taken his contribution to Australian hip hop to the next level, with his debut artist album ‘King of the Beats’ featuring the smash singles ‘About To Blow’ and ‘Rock Ya Baby’ and a host of collaborations which have seen the album garnering acclaim far and wide since its release.

As the frontman of groundbreaking hip hop act 1200 Techniques, N'fa captivated audiences with his raw and edgy performances. Now, with the group on a break, the MC returns with his debut solo album "Cause an Effect". The collaborations on his record are indicative of N'fa’s credibility and talent including team-ups with the likes of Roots Manuva, Mr Yoshiaki from Black Eyed Peas, The Deceptikonz from New Zealand and of course DJ Peril. The debut single "Cause an Effect" got major love from radio across the country including Triple J, Nova and The Edge, with the Heath Ledger directed video clip being branded as ‘ripe clip of the week’ on Channel V as well as also gaining rotation on Video Hits and MTV.

JET COME HOME!

Hirsute Melbourne rockers return home for two very special shows

Melbourne four piece rock outfit Jet are delighted to announce they will return home to play two very special shows in Melbourne and Sydney come the month of August. Having spent the past six months in Los Angeles recording the follow-up to their phenomenally successful debut “Get Born”,   the band are excited to be able to finally preview a swag of new songs from their forthcoming long player, as well as taking the opportunity to dust off all the old favourites.

“After half a year hunkered down over a hot tape machine, we can't wait to get on stage at home again and show people what we've come up with,” said drummer Chris Cester. “These new songs are something else, trust us!”

 

“Amen!” intoned his calmer, older brother Nic.

Beginning work on the album in January 2006 with 40 songs written, the band worked through them all, perfecting, rejecting and fine tuning until the list was whittled down to 20. These songs formed the basis of the new album. Working again with Dave Sardy as producer, the band settled in to Dave's new Hillside Manor studios and got cracking. The result is a mixture of soul stompin', psychedelic, rock and roll that has been well worth the wait, and bears all the hallmarks of a classic rock album from a band growing in stature as songwriters, without forfeiting any of the energy that made their debut such a monstrous calling card.

With the new album scheduled for September 30 , these two shows in August will be a once-only opportunity to see the band in a barely contained state of excitement at being home again, blasting out a healthy serving of great new cuts before the album is released.

The shows also represent the ONLY chance to see Jet live in Australia in 2006. If you miss these shows, your chance to see the four gents from Melbourne town won't come around again this calendar year.   Having last played on these fair shores in December 2004, headlining Homebake after 2 years of constant touring around the globe, it's been way too long between drinks, and these shows promise to be THE rock and roll ticket of the year.

Tickets on sale 9.00am Thursday August 3 rd from all Ticketek outlets.

ANGUS & JULIA STONE EP LAUNCH

“Her voice has a fractured feel like Texan Folkie Jollie Holland; his has a smoke-on-The-beach drawl …. Bernard Zuel, Sydney Morning Herald

Rough Trade, London has made comparisons to Damien Rice, Portishead, Corrine Bailey-Rae and Paul Simon.

“They are unnaturally good,” is the quote of the night. They have done more than warmed the room – they have won it over, hands down. Between songs the crowd are agape, hanging on the silence and waiting for it to be filled, to the point where you could surely hear a pin drop had there been one - Live review at The Metro, Sydney, 31st May …… hotsource.com

WOLFMOTHER ANNOUNCE HOMECOMING TOUR!

WOLFMOTHER will finally return home in July for their first Australian shows since they tore up the Big Day Out back in January. Tickets for all concerts will go on sale at 9am on Thursday, April 20th.

The Sydney trio are currently criss-crossing the globe to help spread the word about their acclaimed, self titled, debut album.

Recent sold out shows in New York, LA and London drew phenomenal press acclaim. A full page feature in the Sunday edition of the Los Angeles Times - called their music “Sexy, Liberating, Exciting, Raw…”. NME has anointed WOLFMOTHER “Australia’s Best Band” and U.S. Rolling Stone featured the group in their annual “Top 10 Artists To Watch” feature.

The group is also being embraced by international radio with their song “Woman” being the #1 most added song at the Alternative and Active Rock formats in the US over recent weeks and Radio 1 in the UK playlisting the band.

WOLFMOTHER’S Australian tour will be slotted among performances at some of the worlds best festivals including Coachella and Lollapalooza in the U.S., Reading and T In The Park in the UK, Fuji in Japan, and a coveted spot on the famous Roskilde Festival in Scandinavia.

With their debut album scheduled for release in the U.S and the U.K. in late April and early May respectively, all this international excitement has only served to fuel the anticipation for the group’s forthcoming Australian Tour.

As far as Australia goes, the news just keeps getting better. With their debut album verging on triple platinum sales, WOLFMOTHER have cemented their status here by picking up a swag of awards in Australia’s Rolling Stone critics poll; being named Best Band, Best Rock Artist, Best New Artist and Best Hard Rock / Metal Act. Their album also received the inaugural “J Award” as the best release of 2005 and they had a record six songs voted into Triple J’s “Hottest 100” list.

From the well loved “Dimension” and “Woman” to the epic “Minds Eye” and the latest single ‘White Unicorn”, WOLFMOTHER live are an unmissable experience.

Their special guests on all their Australian dates will be influential Swedish rockers Dungen. Dungen’s (pronounced Doon-yen) contemporary masterpiece of 70’s inspired psychedelia, jazz, and rock, “Ta Det Lungnt” (which loosely translated means “take it easy”) has been met with critical acclaim worldwide, including a spot in the Top 50 albums of 2005 lists for Rolling Stone USA, NME, The Times, Spin, Uncut and many more. Opening the shows will be up and coming local indie band and original fantasy rockers the Tucker B’s, out on the road in support of their latest and greatest release “Chubby”.

You can catch WOLFMOTHER, Dungen and Tucker B’s live at the following Australian venues:

ESKIMO JOE - BALCK FINGERNAILS RED WINE TOUR

With the release of their defining album “A Song is a City” in 2004, Eskimo Joe had set themselves a very high benchmark. The album was widely reviewed as being one of the best recordings of the year and every tour they did saw the ‘sold out' sign go up well in advance. “A Song is a City” had such resonance with both fans and the music industry that they were voted Best Grooup in the 2005 ARIAs and the album went double platinum.

Never satisfied with their achievements Joel, Stu and Kav bunkered down in The Grove Studios for 6 weeks over Christmas 2005 to record and self-produce their new album. They enlisted the help of ARIA winning engineer Matt Lovell (The Mess Hall's  ‘Notes from a Ceiling') and Eskimo Joe fine tuned a plethora of songs into the final 12 that make up their new, full length recording. Now we have the chance to hear the first single, Black Fingernails Red Wine, which is scheduled to hit stores on Saturday May 13.

The best news - it's time for Eskimo Joe to get their fingernails dirty and drink some red wine, when they hit the road and get back on stage - yep they're hitting the road old school style. This time round they are getting back to basics and playing venues that get them close to their audience. It is all about getting the music to the fans up close and personal. There will be no other shows added to this tour so get in quick and don't miss out on chance to see Eskimo Joe in a way that you may never experience again. Not only that but every person that attends one of these rare shows has the chance to get there hands on a limited release recording only available at the gigs.ESKIMO JOEBLACK FINGERNAILS RED WINE TOUR

ALEX LLOYD announces new single and tour with Special Guests,

The Golden Age!

During the course of his illustrious career, the very talented and multi award winning singer/songwriter, Alex Lloyd, has achieved a phenomenal degree of success across Australia. Now having released his much anticipated fourth (& self titled) studio album, Alex is once again set to win over the masses with this next chapter in his recording life and will take to the road throughout April and May.

Featuring the massive radio hits, ‘Never Meant To Fail’ and ‘The Wonder’, this new self titled album recently released ( through Sony BMG) can be best described as an intricate and stunning cross between Alex’s first two hugely successful albums (‘Black The Sun’ and ‘Watching Angels Mend’). Following up on the airplay success of the first two singles from this album (which are still on high rotation on many stations across Australia), Alex’s new single ‘Brand New Day’ is already spinning around the airwaves with major metropolitan stations and a host of major regional stations around the nation. The stunning and emotive ‘Brand New Day’ single will be accompanied by an epic film clip starring none other than the internationally acclaimed actor, David Wenham. The single will be available in stores from April 8 (through Sony BMG) with bonus tracks including a remix of ‘Never Meant To Fail’ and two previously unreleased tracks.

Having now become a household name, Alex Lloyd is, quite simply, one of the finest and most popular singer-songwriters Australia has produced. His three solo albums – 1999’s ‘Black The Sun’, 2001’s ‘Watching Angels Mend’ and 2003’s ‘Distant Light’ - have collectively sold more than half a million copies and following the release of each album Alex has been awarded an ARIA for Best Male Artist (2000, 2001, 2003).

Be sure to catch Alex Lloyd on this string of national dates. With very special guests, THE GOLDEN AGE – whom have also been the recipients of much radio and video play (& critical acclaim) courtesy of their recently released awesome debut album, ‘Mexico City Bees’, this is definitely an incredible tour line-up not to be missed. To coincide, THE GOLDEN AGE, will also be releasing another pop gem of a single from their album, being the track, ‘My Work Is Done’.
Taking in all capital cities and a host of regional areas this is Alex Lloyd’s most extensive tour in his career to date!
