Elements & Seasons Show
As things roll over in Ballarat town, from floods to sunshine, we thought it would be a fitting time to take a wander through the cold, the windy, the sunny, the fiery, and all that’s inbetween. Hope you enjoy the mix.
The show will also feature a B-side from Speed Orange‘s latest single and fabulous Melbourne outfit Teeth & Tongue (with Jess Cornelius on vocals) who are playing at the East Brunswick Club this Saturday night. More details.
Hey hey,
Sorry for the lack of playlists from last 2 weeks (and we’ve had to reschedule the interview with Jeff Apter)- we’ve been crazy busy getting ready for our art installation and glad to say it went off with a bang last night- thanks to all that came along, friends old and new!
Up this week is our theme week, and it’ll be all about the weather kids- hot, cold, windy, you name it, so we hope you enjoy it as daylight savings and the sun are finally here, so let the good times roll.
In Tinderbox news, Amy will be attending the CBAA conference this month in Hobart with the CBloggers project, very exciting so stay tuned for more!
love x
