Join Matty O on Triple M Homegrown for a landmark episode featuring Kevin Mitchell from Jebediah. In this exclusive interview, we celebrate a monumental occasion: the release of Jebediah's first album in 12 years, 'Oiks', set to drop on Friday, 12 April 2024. The excitement is palpable as we delve into the details of this highly anticipated album and the release of their new single, 'Rubberman', out now.

Kevin Mitchell takes us on a nostalgic journey, reflecting on Jebediah's evolution since their formation in 1994 in Perth, WA. As the band approaches its 30th anniversary, Kevin opens up about the early days - the naivety, the thrill, and the drive that propelled them from local Perth stages to national acclaim. We explore the unique WA pride and how Jebediah paved the way for local bands, choosing to grow their roots in Australian soil instead of seeking fame overseas.

This episode is more than a trip down memory lane; it's a celebration of Western Australia's burgeoning music scene. With bands like Spacey Jane and Tame Impala also hailing from Perth, we discuss the incredible growth of the music industry on Australia's West Coast over the last three decades.
