Chastity Belt:
The north-western town of Walla Walla, Washington is where Chastity Belt call home and where they create the powerful wall of chords that gel with solid beats that are denser than the water in the ocean.
Julia Shapiro, Lydia Lund, Annie Truscott and Gretchen Grimm formed the band is 2010 whilst all were attending the local liberal arts establishment, Whitman College and 2013 was the year they released their first long-player ‘No Regrets’.
Their transcendent and charming live shows have taken them on tour to Europe twice, earned them the support slot on one of Courtney Barnett’s multiple US tours, seen them share stages with Wire, Death Cab For Cutie and Protomartyr as well as gracing festival line ups including Sasquatch, Sled Island, The Great Escape and NXNE.
Recorded live at the PBS FM Studios in Melbourne on the 4th of October 2016.
Hobo Magic:
Hailing from Sunshine Coast in Queensland, our next artists have a tendency to make heads nod and air guitars suddenly appear with their brand of Sabbath-esque stoner-groove. Their name is Hobo Magic. They have 2 records out with their third record coming out in 2017.
Recorded at the PBS FM Melbourne Studio on the 29th of June 2016.
Horsehunter:
Horsehunter have been sonically brooding since 2012, but already sound like a band so tight and wise beyond their years. Their interests include Slayer, kites and tacos. Two years in the making, their debut album ‘Caged In Flesh‘ melted faces in 2015.
Airing details: Originally via Zed Digital, 7-8pm, Sunday 18th of December 2016.
