You’ve probably heard the name IV League because they are a band that have been killing it on the Australian music scene since they appeared in 2015.

interview: the khanz

No comments

Over a warm beverage in The Rocks I caught up with The Khanz’s front man Themba and multi-instrumentalist Kat. I wanted to find out what they’ve been up to (musically) since Lipmag first interviewed them back in November. A lot it turns out, as they’ve been in a constant state of writing new songs, recording…

The Jezabels have a lot to be proud of; this four-piece indie pop band from Sydney won Triple J’s Unearthed competition in 2009 and subsequently pumped out three EPs to critical acclaim. Last year cemented that they’re here to stay: they had their single ‘Endless’ Summer place #9 in Triple J’s Hottest 100 and nominated…

They were picked by Triple J to play at Adelaide’s Laneway Festival, found their way onto Adelaide’s Big Day Out bill, and were selected as one of Rip It Up’s Hot 6 for 2012. What Gold Bloom haven’t done yet is release a recording! Lip had a chat to the Adelaide quartet about the big…

interview: thee oh sees

No comments

Speaking to Brigid Dawson of Thee Oh Sees is one of the oddest, and yet most enjoyable interviews I’ve ever done. It kind of feels like being on a first date, where you’re interested in what they’re saying, and they’re polite and informative, but it’s not until you hit on that magic question that brings…

It’s hard to avoid the influence of mainstream commercial media on young girls. I should know: my seven year old daughter is heavily into princesses and ballerinas, while my six year old daughter loves butterflies and wearing pretty dresses. One of the ways I try to combat this is to reduce the amount of commercial…

I am not one to normally fight fire with fire, but once I was old enough to ‘get’ the 20 Fingers song that bares this article’s title (and not just giggle with uncomfortable shock and awe at its easy use of profanity) I was secretly overjoyed that chicks were ‘getting their own back’. For so…

When Adelaide residents say, ‘everyone knows everyone in Adelaide’, it’s not quite meant in a literal sense. It’s pretty easy to get around the city (so no one bothers travelling more than 15 minutes in any direction), people choose their universities according to convenience of location (so you end up clustered with your high school…
