I’ve spent a lot of my life on the Gold Coast in fact many of my favourite Australian bands/artists ever are from here! One of the first local bands I ever loved Fur were from the GC, as are other favourites including Blister (the first band I ever interviewed), Vicious, A Secret Death, Mark Duckworth (his solo stuff is seriously AMAZING and super underrated! Plus I loved him in The Julian Date), the most excellent The DeathSet (see the last clip in the mix) had their humble beginnings here too and of course there’s my Jhonny (who has been a part of 40 independent releases – he inspires me more than anyone else ever!) Enjoy!
