For the past few years now, I've been watching Newcastle outfit dust rise through the ranks, ticking achievements off their bucket lists as if it's no big deal.I've eagerly watched them since I wrote their very first piece of press back in 2021, premiering their first single, and manifesting good things for them.

If you've been listening to this podcast over the last year and a half, then you'd probably be aware of how much I love to shine a light on artists from Adelaide.Maybe it's my biased nature due to being from Adelaide, or maybe there's something in the water there, but whatever the case, I reckon one Adelaide act you need to hear right now is none other than Kurralta Park.Named for the Adelaide suburb of the same name, Kurralta Park are an impressive mix of indie-rock and emo that is

It's probably fair to say that the world of rock music wouldn't look how it does today without a band like The Runaways.Formed in 1975, the group's all-female lineup was a breath of fresh air on the male-dominated scene, with debut single "Cherry Bomb" and their self-titled album arriving in 1976 to strong acclaim, despite not being a smash on the charts.Ultimately, The Runaways only existed for a few short years, but their influence was immense, informing countless other bands
