Sam Teskey

Obsessed

100%

Solo albums can often be dangerous. After all, with a legacy behind you that is already rather massive, it's daunting to go solo and try to live up to these expectations. But for Sam Teskey, there's no hint of apprehension in the slightest, with 'Cycles' an undeniably confident and accomplished record, and one that will undoubtedly prove his worth as one of the country's finest artists.

Try

Susannah Coleman-Brown

Rounding out the EP is ‘Try’, a lullaby-esque track which brings this fresh Australian jazz album – or our imaginary jazz night out – to an end in the best possible way.

All I Needed

Susannah Coleman-Brown

Obsessed

100%

A more up-tempo number, ‘All I Needed’ exudes as much raw passion as the track that preceded it, and not without reason: impressively, the powerful vocal solo in ‘All I Needed’ was completely improvised in the moment – lyrics and melody included. ‘All I Needed’ is the kind of jazz song even non-jazz lovers can get down to. It features the perfect combination of fast-hitting notes that make you want to wobble your side to side and just roll with it.

The stripped-back ballad ‘Away’ unveils the authentic depth of emotion within Coleman-Brown.

Hunger and Fate

Susannah Coleman-Brown

Obsessed

100%

‘Hunger & Fate’ transports your mind to a late-night jazz club. The kind you stumble upon when you’re out exploring the world, unsure what to expect from the dimly-lit venue you’ve never heard of and unaware of the magic that lies within until you enter the doors and are entranced in the moment. It’s the best kind of travel experience and best kind of musical moment all wrapped up in one heart-filling night out. Or in Coleman-Brown’s case, one soulful, authentic, jazz track.

Hunger & Fate

Susannah Coleman-Brown

Obsessed

100%

The six original tracks on the EP showcase Coleman-Brown’s soulful and versatile vocals and come supported by a troupe of Tassie talent. When the world is a place that needs to be escaped from right now, Hunger & Fate is the antidote.

Fun, hopeful, and a little snarky. A delightful EP from one of Australia's most beloved comedy veterans.

I'VE SEEN THE FUTURE, AND YOU'RE NOT IN IT.

Paul McDermott

Obsessed

90%

Anyone can tell you that when it comes to quick-witted tracks performed with the tongue firmly in cheek, Paul McDermott is something of an Aussie icon. On 'I'VE SEEN THE FUTURE, AND YOU'RE NOT IN IT', McDermott uses his stellar voice and sharp songwriting to pen a small handful of tracks which have appeared in his recent 'Plus One' show, along with a more recent COVID-related track. Of course, it seems he couldn't have picked a better release date, with opener "No Singing No Dancing" name-checking now-former Sydney Premier Gladys Berejiklian. Considering the EP was recorded against Sydney's latest lockdown, it seems as though McDermott might have been onto something when it came to the EP's title.

She's only gone and done it AGAIN! What an album of beautiful proportions featuring relatable ennui and production with a purpose.

EVERYBODY KNOWS... IT HURTS TO GROW UP! There is SO much depth and duality to this Ruby's long-awaited debut. It strikes a balance between tinnie-crushing larrikinism and hard-earned stoicism.
