1/2/3/4 — #198 — Orpheum Protocol

Sydney indie outfit Shrapnel started as the bedroom project of Sam Wilkinson (Day Ravies, Mope City, Beef Jerk) but soon morphed into a full band and are back with a stunning new track from their soon to be released album Alasitas on Tenth Court that splits the difference between pastoral psych folk and beguiling pop along the lines of Look Blue Go Purple. Just one of nine stunning tracks to enjoy on this episode.

1/2/3/4 — #197 — My Cup of (Dark) Tea

Dark Tea, the solo project of LA-based Gary Canino and he continues to follow the theme on previous releases with his amazing new self-titled record. That being – the wavering perception of time and the impermanence of love, in an attempt to transcend the mundane. It’s a top notch release featuring an amazing array of talented musicians. Highly recommended!

1/2/3/4 — #196 — Wayside Balladry

‘The Wayside Ballads Vol 3’ is the final instalment of a vision Ross Jackson and Bill Jackson had in 2014 to produce three records of our songs across two continents and back. For Volume 3, all hell broke loose globally via a pandemic. They were confined to their homes but decided to press on anyway, working remote to each other in a spree of sharing files, email, and telephone conversations over a period of four months. What emerges is a gorgeous modern folk record. We also feature excellent tracks from Coda Chroma, Fog Lake, Francine Odysseys and much more.
