who are doing their label I OHYOU proud with a string of sold-out shows this year. Others I'm looking forward to on the line-up are Melbourne duo Big Scary, Zachary Cole’s band DIIV, from Brooklyn, who’ll be playing tracks from their new album Is The Is Are , (review on page 16) and our recent feature artists CHVRCHES who have their wonderful second release Every Open Eye to spruik. Also gracing the fest’s stages will be Grimes, Hermitude, Royal Headache, Methyl Ethel and Shamir – it’s going to be enormous, whichever city you’re in. Don’t forget to check out the Grammys on February 15, and until then, keep your head in the music. The JB Listener

G reetings STACK music- I’m back in my native urban environment after the Tamworth Country Music Festival, which featured a stack of excellent performances: Lee Kernaghan showed us why he’s still on top, Adam Brand and the Outlaws played several tracks from the group’s new self-titled album, and Jasmine Rae, Beccy Cole, The McClymonts and Troy Cassar-Daley all impressed. Looking ahead, February is all about St Jerome’s Laneway festival and its sideshows. I’m keen as mustard to catch our February Album of the Month recipients DMA’s (well deserved), heads, and welcome to my little update for February.

It should be played on vinyl." Bridges' soulful debut joins the list of titles absolutely "flying out the door" on the wax, as Keira reports. "Lately N.W.A. [ Straight Outta
