August 12th sees the release of our brand new single and video, a cover of The Go-Betweens’ classic “Streets of Your Town”. After playing it live at Take The Lead it was a pretty obvious choice for a great song to release. This really marks the end of our Come Up Invisible period, and the […]

As if we don’t have enough else going on, we decided to knock together an EP for the American promo disc of NO SIGNS! This killer collection is like a pizza with everything in the whole shop on top, including the latex gloves and the drinks machine. It features mostly songs you HAVE heard before:
the boss I don’t mean Springsteen-like, I just mean that whenever I think of Dom I get this sense of calm and surrender going on. I know for example that if we never rehearsed once with him he saunter on stage and nail his song as if he’s been touring it incessantly since ’85 ..like
walk the line He came in the middle of the night, opened his acoustic guitar case and performed SHINE to Skye. It reduced her to a blubbering mess. Yep, we’re letting the cat out of the bag on this one. Chris is doing SHINE. Bring your tissues. Chris is like Zorro, he comes quietly, in
THE LIGHTNING BOLT Jeremy will come along in the middle of the night with a box of matches and a can of lighter fuel and SET THE SCENE ALIGHT. He plays in tons of bands, he sings, drums, plays guitar, writes killer pop songs, the whole kaboodle. He wears his guitar up around his armpits

I tell you what, evolution has taken on a very definite angle on this planet. I can’t help being reminded of
INCENDIARY DEVICE Yeah – he’s got red hair but that’s not even what I’m talking about. In the 90s we appropriated a saying from surfers “Goes Off”. Shit was going off left right and centre.. it was a pretty off-going time. Anyway, you get where I’m driving with this right..? Let’s not dwell in the
The Rainbow Warrior Hannah takes the creation of perfect effortless pop to new levels, crashing through the seas of mediocrity with her brightly coloured flags flying high. She’s on a mission to sock it to the man, and conquer the world with great music, great moves and a little bit of sunshine. All hands on

ROCK SALT / CRACKED PEPPER Good things come in small packages: Sabrina is the master of disaster, the reason for the season, the rock in your boot, the ciggy butt in your beer. She’s got the kind of voice that makes you feel like a sissy and that makes you want to go back to
We are kicking off our national NO SIGNS tour with a really special event at The Judith Wright Centre in Brisbane on Friday 19th April. WE ALL WANT TO: TAKE THE LEAD! This gig will feature 16 guest singers, each performing one of our songs with us. We will do Come Up Invisible in its
JOHN DIES AT THE END Insanity. Maybe we’ll regret asking David to join us on the bill, but how could we not ask him? But how could we ask him if we thought we’d regret it? But how could we not ask him if we weren’t sure? How could we ever be sure? How can
the really well wrapped birthday present We couldn’t resist asking McKisko to join the bill. God, we need some subtlety, mystery and finesse. ENTRANCING is another pretty good word. Talent is another one. VOICE is yet another.. those 5 letters say so much, with so many meanings. Honesty, Rawness, Lo-fi goodness, ah the list goes
