Well hot damn it's good to be back. First episode since the craziness of COVID19 had the owner of King Lears Throne aka King of the shit talk Kenny onboard for a chat and it stayed on track relatively early but as you guessed it we talked a lot of shit. Being someone directly affected by the lockdown I wanted to check in and see how the industry is holding up as well as having a chat with such a lovely human being after the lockdown. We talk favourite shows played at his pub, getting the foot in the door and how the other venues are supporting one another. Once this all blows over (safely of course) King lears will be up at running and to quote the man himself "it should be at leassttt 30% better"

Songs played include:
Gridflex - Eat the Rich
Beans on Toast - M.D.M Amazing
Being Jane Lane - Savage Sunday

All have played in the tiny confines of King Lears

Hip hop has never been the genre I go too first but I've never held a grudge, it's thought provoking, catchy and lyrically captivating. With the help of local brisbane legend Late1, we sat down for a few beers to talk about Brisbane's hip hop scene, what seperates his style from the rest, the comradery between other artists and collaborations and plenty more. You can reach out to Late1 through the usual platforms like facebook and Instagram as well as soundcloud and spotify for his music which is fantastic by the way. Couldn't have asked for a better guest to help expand my knowledge of the genre and look forward to see what he gets up too next.

These girls in the short amount of time being a band have accomplished so much it's mental. Kelly, Stacey & Sophia we're so much fun to have in the studio and definitely appreciate them taking the time to do so ♡ we get to know more about the origins of Blussh, where the journey started, the odd conspiracy here and there and so much more. Catch the girls playing at Sol Bar up the Sunny coast on the 20th of March then at the Greaser bar on the 26th and keep your eyes and ears peeled for what they get up too for the rest of the year.

I hadn't been to a Thursday night show in a while, of course I picked a rainy night to do so. Absolutely worth it though to catch up with the guys in Cowboys and Injuries, Andy and Nick are such good dudes and I'm a little bummed I couldn't get them in the studio but this is exactly why the live format has come into play. The goldy punks have just dropped a 2 track release on spotify and have more shows and songs coming at you in the near future. The audio does get a little dicey here and there and towards the end the next band starts playing but hey, that's being live for you (also recording off a phone lel) Genuinely can't wait to see what they get up too next so go and give them a follow on all the social media platforms

Sometimes guests can't make it in to the studio because of schedules, life, you name it; that's totally okay in this instance I had the chance to meet up with the Garlic Nun boys for a few beers down the road from The Bearded Lady in West End before their show and full disclaimer, the sound won't be the greatest, there's background noise from the markets next door and a lot of back and forth chat it's hard to work out at times, but this is the feel I'm going for and especially more so for this episode. Such a crazy bunch of dudes but absolutely the best kind and their show that night with Blussh The Unknowns and Goon on the Rocks was just mental. If you missed out on seeing them I wouldn't be too bummed I'm sure they'll be back soon and with new tunes.

You'd think managing a band would be busy enough but apparently not. Karl lends not only that but bass skills to well known punk band The Gastons, runs his own promotion company and also has a seriously cool sounding side project on the way in Meth Teeth. We talk origins, family, the love of music and the passions we draw from it and so much more. Keep an eye out on all three groups Karl's in for 2020, definitely some cool things coming!

It's the end of the year, what better way to send it out with the two brothers and good friends from the ever disgusting Decapitated Mum crew ♡ Inbetween all the nonsense we get up too this episode we talk a little about the family dynamic and growing up together listening to the same tunes, the stereotypical brother scraps with each other, secret instrumental skills and what Dmum's plan is for 2020. It's been a good year for music in 2019 so let's keep the ball rolling on to the new decade.

It's always easy talking to your mates, especially ones you grow up with in your teenage years. From Byron trips to Frenzal Rhomb gigs, Den days to the formation of Goon it's been a wild ride that's for sure. We rehash some of the old days and the history of said 3 bands the fellas play in. 2019 closes up with the Goon boys playing at the Zoo on the 21st of Dec alongside some cracker bands all put on by Punkfest. Party times and good vibes are what Goon and the guys are all about so don't be shy to say hello and always remember to support your local! (TC till Death)

The more episodes I record with local musicians, the more bands I find out they play in. Turns out I haven't seen all of Josh's bands play yet but I'll be sure to fix that. Josh is a fantastic artist and incredibly involved within the local scene. We talk about it in this episode along with where the passion of music came from as well as playing in a diverse group of bands and heaps more. I had a wonderful time talking to Josh and you can keep up to date with what he's up too through his band's Facebook and Instagram pages

Next up is Ash Wallace of Good Call Live and AAA Backstage. As well as studying the entertainment business at JMC Academy, you might catch Ash out in the crowds moshing and working at the same time reviewing the shows for those who couldn't make it out too. We talk about when music began to influence her life, what it's like being able to see and speak to some of your favourite bands and discuss the current initiative by Support Act with the Australian Music Tshirt Day on November 15 which GCL is firmly behind and supporting. An extremely hard worker and so passionate for the scene, if you're ever looking for someone to help cover your shows or interview the best bands around I wouldn't hesitate to give Ash the spot!
