Last year breakout artist LØLØ gave us the undeniable anthem “u turn me on (but you give me depression)”, which by its title you already know how fucking good it was.

SINGLE REVIEW: Idina Menzel – MOVE
Idina Menzel has decided to make a record for the girls, gays, and they’s, and she’s ready to have you gagging from the disco-pop anthems that make up its track listing. “Drama Queen” will be released on August 18, and if the lead single “MOVE” is anything to judge it by then we are very…

“It’s funny, I really took a whole 180 on “love you forever”” VÉRITÉ says during the opening moments of our chat about her third studio album.

INTERVIEW: LAUREL
As I walk into The Metro Theatre in Sydney, Laurel is onstage soundchecking “Scream Drive Faster”. The stage set-up is simple with just some production risers and herself on stage with a guitar and a microphone stand.

SINGLE REVIEW: Catie Turner – Easy
In March, Catie Turner returned after a brief hiatus with the immaculate anthem “Hyperfixations” which perfectly described what it’s like to live with ADHD.

SINGLE REVIEW: Gretta Ray – Dear Seventeen
Gretta Ray is getting ready to enter her sophomore album era, but before she does that she wants to take a moment to reflect on the journey it’s taken to get her to where she is right now. “Dear Seventeen” is a retrospective track that captures the highs and the lows of her career, and…
SINGLE REVIEW: Sadie Jean – Just Because
Sadie Jean is only three songs into her musical journey, and she’s already got us absolutely gushing. “WYD Now?” was an impressive debut that hit us right in the chest with its heavy emotions. She then followed it up with “Locksmith” which was equally heartbreaking but cathartic, so I don’t think it comes as any…
