ALBUM Of The Week: Instead of single of the week I am nominating the soundtrack to the new Christmas movie, Christmas Karma, This is a reworking of the Charles Dickens novel, think  A Christmas Carol meets Bollywood. The soundtrack is wonderful mix of Bollywood and London street music, including singers such as Pixie Lott, Boy George and Billy Porter. The ghosts of Christmas Past Present and Future are played by Eva Langoria, Boy George and Billy Porter, and the whole filming album is a sweet and beautiful tribute to the spirit of Christmas.

That’s your lot ….. now sashay away …

Song Of The Week: Caught Up by ixaras. As per funds mgmt, “Ixaras is a queer Indie Pop Rock artist & songwriter raised in Meanjin/Brisbane who champions her self expression through the art of music and live gigs. Alongside her melodic ear worms and thought provoking lyricism about the complexities of growing up and young love, Ixara epitomises the meaning of youth, inclusivity and accessibility today with her all-ages, DIY event management and record label ‘Anti-Dismal’ – throwing sold out gigs in backyards, skateparks, community halls and houses”. This track from the new EP What Is And What Isn’t is such a full-on catchy track, but then the whole EP is great from the first single, DO YOU LIKE GIRLS to the end, you must listen to this, please?

That’s your lot ….. now sashay away …

Song Of The Week: Maybe This Time by Orville Peck. Such an abundance of talent this week, and yes, who hasn’t heard so many versions of this song? But this time it’s done by a gay man, Orville Peck, an American country singer, and all this baggage has produced, in my opinion, a beautiful new version. 

That’s your lot ….. now sashay away …

Song Of The Week: Where love goes to hide by Star Departures (aka Adam Lloyd Davis) from Perth. Beautiful ballad from the album of the same name. The rest of the album is similarly low-key,  and it explores the theme of ‘love that lingers in the shadows after a relationship ends, as well as the reflective process of heartbreak’. Well worth exploring the album. 

That’s your lot ….. now sashay away …

Song Of The Week: Telephone Games by Oliver Sim. Gorgeous and catchy eletropop track from another member of the band The xx, along with Romy & Jamie xx. Very simple and playful track full of energy, it just left me with a smile on my face. Hope it works for you too.

Song Of The Week: This, Forever by Cry Club. This Melbourne duo made their debut in 2018, and had a great album, God I’m such a mess in 2020. They had some successes in Europe after that and have released a few singles in the last couple of years, and we should expect and album in early 2026. They see themselves as queer electro punk energy, but still remain very pop catchy.

That’s your lot ….. now sashay away …

Song Of The Week: Driving by TAMS/N OTWAY from the new album Whisky Sour. My favourite track from the new album, a wonderful blend of pop, electronica etc, with inspiration drawn from 90’s female fronted bands. TAMS/N has a spectacular voice ideally suited to this style.
