Blues Roots

This week's PBS Feature Album is Ripple On The Wing, the new record from Naarm/Melbourne based soulstress Ella Thompson.

The Stay Soft Night Market is back for another round in the Collingwood Yards courtyard, this time in collaboration with PBS!

This week’s PBS Feature Album is Cartoon Darkness from Naarm/Melbourne's homegrown pub-rock heroes, Amyl and The Sniffers. 

The 13-track project follows the band's 2019 self-titled debut and their 2021 hit Comfort To Me, delving into provocative explorations of climate change, war, AI, tiptoeing on the eggshells of politics, and Big Tech. In the face of these looming realities, Amyl and The Sniffers dive headfirst into the unknown, combating the chaos with childlike sensibilities that capture the playful rock n' roll grit we know and love.

This week’s PBS Feature Album is Just My Luck from BATTS, the project of Naarm/Melbourne-based musician, Tanya Batt.

The recent release follows her AMP nominated sophomore album ‘The Nightline’ which was supported around the world by BBC 6 Music, NPR, Brooklyn Vegan, NME, Sterogum and other prominent outlets. Batt’s main focus for the third album was to fall in love with music again, to find the joy and playfulness in it all, something she felt she had lost through grief and the toxicities that exist in the industry.
