la Musica

Sitting here enjoying the sounds of OP8 at the recommendation of Freya Hollick and thanks to our new supporters L’espresso Cafe and Music at 417 Sturt St- thanks guys!!  Wikipedia tells us that OP8′s only album ‘Slush’ was ‘acclaimed [for] its experimental flourishes and great songwriting, although it was never destined to be a commercial success.’ Such a great album though! Check it out.

On last week’s show we also heard from the new Neil Young, some upcoming festival artists and from some of Ballarat’s own fab musicians. & Thanks to Dave for guest hosting with me!
