Missy Higgins - All for Believing "Just believe. Just believe. Just believe." Believing is a hard thing to do. Trusting people. For some it comes more naturally then others. But its so hard when that trust has been broken, to trust again. I know though, that I have gone against the truth a few times and need people to trust me again. Its just such a point of vulnerability. It's like let me peel off that layer of skin and just see everything within you. Trusting people. But without trust, true relationships cannot be [...]
The summer of last year when we met Missy Higgins in Los Angeles she told us that she is taking it slow and not pressuring herself into making another album anytime soon. We expressed our love for everything she has does and told her that we even listen to her B-sides. She replied that she might go back into the studio sometime in the near future. Well, it turns out that she did because she just tweeted that she has officially finished recording the new album, which will be her third. This is exciting news as Autumn is [...]

The Australian homeland efforts are already in place to help those out who have suffered from the massive flooding in Queensland, with an already SOLD OUT show featuring musical talents of Australia's best talent in Melbourne. As the poster states above 100% of the profits will go to benefit the relief efforts. Bertie Blackman, one of the performing artists, stated that they will be sharing the content (most likely via digital production) from the live show to support further efforts for helping the victims. Read about young boys' tragic and heroic effort to save his little [...]

As promised, here is the official soundtrack of the 4th season of Grey's Anatomy. Other than Grey's Anatomy, other hit shows like Gossip Girl, Chuck, Fringe, Glee, Dollhouse, One Tree Hill, Ugly Betty, House and many more.

I'm about eight years late to this party apparently, but I still think this video of 'Since I Left You' by Melbourne's The Avalanches is worth a look. I caught it on Rage this morning and was quite charmed! Make sure you stick with it til the end, won't you? It's really quite gorgeous. Since I Left You - The Avalanches Another video I came across was 'A Community Service Announcement' by Sydney's Jonathan Boulet. The video [...]

Missyand Band at the Crystall Ballroom Portland, Oregon 2009 I'm not sure who the other songstress Missy was battling in this song, but I'd put my money on Missy. I have known Missy and her music since her early beginnings when she released her very first single "Scar" and played some local gigs in Sydney at the age of 19. She is a brilliant songwriter who has taken the Australian music scene by storm in the past five years and is now well positioned to attack US radio airways with her latest album "On A Clear Night" [...]

Warner Brothers Records is celebrating its 50th year as a label with an album of current artists covering classic cuts from the label's archives, and while I suppose there's some appeal to hearing Taking Back Sunday play a Tom Petty track, let's be real: Who is going to pay for that privilege in the Internet age? The disc itself isn't bad, with well-play songs that shuffle through genres like a radio dial stuck on "seek." Sure, back in the day I was one of those people who [...]
