1/2/3/4 — #261 — The Charming Mr Poltz

Apr 1, 2023 | , , |

Steve Poltz is back in Australia after a four year absence, bringing with him great new songs from his Stardust and Satellites release and his truty guitar, Smokey Joe. Steve is more than just a singer/songwriter – he’s a brilliant storyteller, comedian, entertainer and lover of the Hook Turn. He joins me in the studio for a chat and some tracks ahead of his performances at the National Folk Festival and Bluesfest. Plus the excellent new album from Coda Chroma, John Kennedy and the New Originals and Ruth Hazleton….and more!

Sunny War is more than just an artist; she is a force of nature that is tough to pin down. What exactly is her style? Blues or punk? Yes, she may be a Robert Johnson with a shot of Bad Brains, but even this description falls short. Her latest, Anarchist Gospel features fourteen songs of resilience and perseverance, of hardship and triumph. Highly recommended.

1/2/3/4 — #258 — Gemma Ray and The Death Bell Gang

Gemma Ray takes an unexpected detour from her acclaimed psych-soul and torch-song oeuvre with a hard-edged experiment in cinematic electronica. Epic despite its underlying simplicity and groove, Gemma Ray & The Death Bell Gang blends the funereal and the nasty with tenderness and yearning, with a dash of automaton-pop and a Dada- esque playfulness for good measure. Highly Recommended.
