Beware of the Dogs
by Stella Donnelly
I came across Stella's song 'A Poem' from her early discography collection 'Thrush Metal' when I first moved to Melbourne in 2018. Since then, Stella has always left me in awe of everything she makes.

Dancing With Bad Grammar
by L.A. Salami
L.A Salami has everything. Listening to him feels like I have lived life at least 5 times over. He has stories of anger, love, loss, strength. Whatever narrative you need, L.A Salami will have it.

I Need to Start a Garden
by Haley Heynderickx
Alas, haley heynderickx's 'I Need To Start A Garden'. There's something about haley, she carries around a quiet demeanor but listen to her music and she'll tell a different story.
