Hello! For the music asks: 5, 12 and/or 23, if you please!

Hello! Thank you for the asks lovely.

5. A song from a lifelong favorite artist

This is slightly cheating because it covers three of my faves 🙈 "Droving Woman" was originally written by Kev Carmody, who is an indigenous Australian singer-songwriter. The song is written about his mum. This version is performed by two of my favourites - Paul Kelley and Missy Higgins, as well as Paul's nephew Dan. My first two concerts were Missy Higgins, and then a Kev Carmody tribute concert, where I saw this performed live by these three.

I highly recommend checking out Missy, Paul and Uncle Kev, three incredible Australian artists. As a bonus - "From Little Things Big Things Grow" also written by Uncle Kev. This is a recording from the concert I went to, sung by Uncle Kev, Paul Kelly and Missy Higgins, with a few others. CW: This song depicts real events in Australian history regarding Aboriginal land rights, and the video depicts First Nations Peoples who have passed.

12. A song you can scream all the words to

Well now I feel like I jumped the gun with Helpless! Literally anything from Hamilton the musical. Also, and for no particular reason, "Mr Brightside" by the Killers

23. Your favourite cheesy pop song

"2002" by Anne Marie. It's just so fun!

Sydney Opera House CEO Richard Evans says of the project:

“We set out to create a tribute to the House’s role in the global creative community – a love song to creativity if you wish.”

"From Little Things Big Things Grow" is a protest song recorded by Australian artists Paul Kelly & The Messengers on their 1991 album Comedy, and by Kev Carmody (with Kelly) on his 1993 album Bloodlines. The song was co-written by Kelly and Carmody, and is based on the story of the Gurindji strike and Vincent Lingiari as part of the Indigenous Australian struggle for land rights and reconciliation. Kelly and Carmody performed the song together on 5 November 2014 at the public memorial service for former Prime Minister Gough Whitlam, who is the "tall stranger" referred to in the song.

This weekend there was a Folk Punk fest in my city, so here’s my review of BRIS-FOPO

BrisFOPO Part I:

1. James Brook: Environmentalist punk music. Did both acoustic and electric. I think he likes Billy Bragg, by the sounds of things. https://jamesbrook.bandcamp.com/ 2. Quinton Trembath: I loved this guy since I looked him up about a week ago to check out the bands. Quinton plays an acoustic guitar, and he's accompanied by Hannah Morell on the fiddle. Very folky. Did not disappoint live, he had good chat in between. Plays mostly really lovely songs. https://quintontrembath.bandcamp.com/album/tuns-of-fun 3. The Dangerous Folk. Local. Celtic-influenced Punk From what I could gather talking to one of them after the show they're a pretty new band, still working out their sound and they'd been playing as a six-piece but were short staffed having just sacked two members, leaving a more punk lineup. Worth keeping an eye on. Included an Electric Mandolin, so that's a good start in my book. Had good stage presence. https://thedangerousfolk.bandcamp.com/releases 4. The Dead Maggies: 'You can't go apeshit to a completely acoustic band.' - someone who hasn't seen The Dead Maggies. 'Tasmanian Convict Punk' telling old stories with energetic folk songs. Loved it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzOmfHiZA-4http://www.thedeadmaggies.com 5. Fox & Firkin: Celtic punk. Another electric mandolin, this time as lead, interchanged with electric banjo. Honestly just sounded like a Australian band doing Dropkick Murphys songs, except for the one that was basically Drunken Lullabies (Flogging Molly) with different words. Still, I like those bands so I didn't mind so much. By this point I was pretty exhausted. https://foxnfirkin.bandcamp.com/

Overall a top night

BrisFOPO Part II: 1. Andy Paine. A local and active member of the community. Protest songs on the Acoustic. Did a cover of 'Thou Shalt Not Steal' by Kev Carmody, always a positive there. Also author of the hit song 'Don't Kill People'. https://andypaine.wordpress.com/music/ 2. Laura Mardon. Sad songs, acoustic guitar. Very folky. https://lauramardon.bandcamp.com/ 3. Steve Reed. A guy in plaid pants who can't remember the name of his own songs plays the guitar fast and sings political songs badly. I loved him. https://easystevereed.bandcamp.com/releases 4. Jim Mongrel. He opened with an a-capella number called 'Sometimes Antisocial but Always Antifascist' which set the scene pretty well. An Anarchist artist who lived in Sydney and has fronted a few bands, now living in Northern NSW. Up for a good chat between songs. Inventive lyricism. Other hits include 'I Wanna Set Fire to Eddie McGuire'. https://www.facebook.com/JimMongrelMusic/ 5. Wilson & The Castaways. They had a guy who played the harmonica and someone else on a euphonium so that's a good start for a band. I don't really know how to describe them, but they were definitely fun. Also they completed the requirement for a Johnny Hobo cover at some point in any Folk Punk gig. show.https://wilsonandthecastaways.bandcamp.com 6. The Button Collective. From Lismore. A little bit different to the others these ones were a 4-piece (although sometimes they play as more) with fiddles, a guitar, a banjo and a double bass all standing around one mic and playing something very bluegrass, sea-shanty and bush band influenced. Very talented. Lots of facial hair. Excellent to listen to. I've tried to find an accurate representation of what that set was like because none of their other videos quite captured it but this short one is more like it. https://www.facebook.com/buttoncollective/videos/1343679122384048/ Great band. Loved it. 7. All Strings Attached. Sunshine Coast. In truth I probably could have really enjoyed them but by this point in the weekend I was absolutely exhausted and just wasn't in the mood for their big, loud, excited gypsy-punk sound and wanted to hear more of The Button Collective. https://www.facebook.com/allstringsattachedband/

ABC’s live music program The Sound returns this weekend with another stacked lineup of Australian artists who’ll perform on the program.

Hosted as usual by Jane Gazzo and Zan Rowe (along with special guests Keith Urban, Jack Thompson and Molly Meldrum), Tones and I leads the bill with a performance of her The Kids Are Coming cut ‘Never Seen the Rain’.

//

Also on the lineup is Guy Sebastian performing from Sydney’s historic Town Hall, Bliss n Eso debuting their first new single since 2017, Vika and Linda, and beloved electronic duo Electric Fields.

The latter will be bringing their cover of Kev Carmody‘s ‘From Little Things, Big Things Grow’, which appears on the forthcoming expanded reissue of Carmody tribute album Cannot Buy My Soul. They’re joined on the performance by Missy Higgins, Jessica Mauboy and John Butler.

This weekend’s episode also sees Josh Teskey and Ash Grunwald launch their new collaborative project, a performance from rising pop artist CXLOE, and a tribute to Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs by Jimmy Barnes, The Living End‘s Chris Cheney and more. All in all, there are far worse ways to spend your Sunday arvo.

Since kicking off last month, The Sound has featured stunning performances from the likes of Amy Shark, Angie McMahon, DMA’S, Paul Kelly and more. Filmed and created by Mushroom Vision, the weekly series showcases some of the country’s most exciting artists through exclusive, pre-recorded live performances along with collaborations and interviews. Last weekend saw a particularly stunning performance from Miiesha, who performed her single ‘Twisting Words’ from Queensland’s Capricorn Caves.
