Rich Webb

Rich Webb Melbourne singer-songwriter Rich Webb delivers thumping wired alternative rock one minute, the tenderist urban corkscrew ballad the next. His is an alarmingly inspired concoction, held together by a voice that howls and shimmies like a dust storm from the Mallee desert. Rolling Stone says Webb is like Dylan, Nick Cave, and Matthew Sweet. We reckon he's got his own line in dark pop. Singles 'Don't Feel So Sad' and 'Light' have worked a treat on German radio this year (both spun on over 70 stations), and Rich is currently putting the finishing touches on a new album, Beautiful World, due to be released in Germany in April. Rich will be playing 10 dates with the full band in Germany in October following Popkomm (his third tour of Germany in a year), including four with legendary HR3 radio presenter Volker Rebell as part of the 'hin und weg' tour. Also, catch Rich live on HR-TV on Saturday Nov 15! Full details on the websites below.

The Reveels

Brisbane band The Reveels formed in 2005 around the songwriting abilities of Paul Milsom, an artist and front man described as “one of Brisbane’s most enigmatic performers” by local street press Time Off. A prolific writer of hard pop that sweeps from achingly beautiful to gut-wrenching and haunted, Paul and his band wrap beauty in violence, mixing powerful melodies with a grinding, tough noise floor. The Reveels have recorded a full length album on All Killer Music, chock a block full of gritty, majestic, very real slices of urban Australian existence. It's out now - get a hold of this lot while you can!

It's wild indie rock from the early 1990s - but remastered 2007-style. Get your copy now. Available at all good Australian independent record stores and all major download sites. "A gem of an album for lovers of garage rock and the classic Aussie surf punk guitar sound." Sunday Herald Sun. "Garage pop rock straight from the time machine," Rave Magazine.

Victoria Hume

Victoria Victoria's first EP, Electricity (recorded under the band's former name Mothband), was released in 2005, and they are now working on a full album, Limbs and Digits. Victoria Hume's carefully crafted music is instantly recognisable for the appealing intimacy of her voice and lyrics. Her songs veer between starkly personal and polemic, with each song creating a world of its own. Influences from Billie Holliday to PJ Harvey are evident, and her voice is frequently compared to Suzanne Vega and Joni Mitchell. Prepare to be charmed.
