LITTLE STEVIES
Rarely will you see a band with the ability to connect with their
audience as The Little Stevies. Their unique blend of emotive
and honest songwriting, combined with catchy pop melodies and beautiful
three-part harmonies do what so many others strive to; they give their
audience license to really identify with them, and to feel that they're
sharing something of themselves. The Little Stevies are made up of
sisters Sibylla and Beth, and their childhood friend Robin. They descend
from a long line of great Australian acts that includes the likes
of Frente, The Waifs, and Paul Kelly, whose music retains a sense
of fun while maintaining an emotional depth and maturity. It's not
uncommon to see people standing in a Little Stevies' audience with
a smile on their face and tears on their cheeks. Charming lyrics,
luscious harmonies and an overall uplifting aura are winning hearts
throughout the world.
IMMIGRANT UNION
Take one part Dandy Warhol, one part Lazy Son and one part Galvatron
and you've got Immigrant Union, a new Melbourne-based act that more
readily adheres to the Dylan/Young model of country-folk songwriting
than any of those aforementioned acts. After meeting at Melbourne's
Cherry Bar and discovering their mutual appreciation for strumming
classic country on acoustic guitars, the Dandy Warhols' drummer Brent
DeBoer and The Lazy Sons' singer Bob Harrow recruited keyboardist
Peter 'Gamma' Lubulwa of The Galvatrons to record together.
