That sweet moment when stylish, quick fire, smart hip-hop is fused with a classic simple beat and a quality distorted guitar. Keeping you on your toes; brand new music from The Scribes. ‘A Story all about How’ opens with ‘Dragon Breath’, the first track we heard from it; simple yet effective, and it only gets better from … Continued

An overcast, dreary, very British Tuesday; a good day to talk about an exciting alternative band from Sydney, Australia. The Sunpilots. We’re absolutely loving this sound. They’re kind of fusing the whole alternative rock thing, (think Incubus, Queens of the Stone Age, System of a Down) with an almost Kate Bush kind of artistry. Lyrically, melodically, … Continued
‘I’ll Try Till I Die’ is a 2015 release from songwriter and guitarist Phillip Foxley. The project is one that shows impressive variation in songwriting style throughout, with both the music and the subject matter changing and evolving as each song takes place – a real showcase of experience and skill. Immensely thoughtful, non-conformist lyrics, firmly place … Continued
One of the most exciting new bands of recent years – Half Moon Run have gone from the mass sharing of their acoustic videos, to global alternative superstars. It all started with Full Circle, followed by a series of phenomenal live performances; their passion and chemistry on stage is unparalleled, not to mention that each … Continued
When genre becomes irrelevant; when a vocal is so smooth and compelling, so stylish and sweet; so brand new sounding in a heavily electronic era. Just 8 seconds into ‘Keep us Together‘ and we were hooked. A bouncy, joyful, summer vibe; energetic and fairly organic – that genuine live band sound. A really great song. Then … Continued
Sometimes we lead our articles with opinions here at Stereo Stickman. Other times, we lead purely with fact. The following will be absolute, undeniable fact. Will and the People have never let us down. Each track or video they release is every bit as good as we’d hoped. Every gig is exciting, fun, and flawless. Every time … Continued
The 1st of October marks the long awaited release of a brand new track from Australia’s quietly bold gem, Matt Corby. Nothing has quite grabbed us for a while in the way that ‘Brother’ did some years ago, but ‘Monday’, his brand new release, is a beautifully crafted track, with a beautifully placed simple clap … Continued
If you find yourself in the loop pedaling, beat boxing section of Youtube – you can be stuck there for weeks. It’s mesmerizing, the music a single person can now create; the possibilities are endless. The problem though, is that with such a saturated industry of similar skill sets, it can be a little difficult sometimes for an artist to … Continued
Your favourite new sound. Pretty much everything you want in a live band. Reggae, ska, dubby rock, joy, dancing, melodies, big hair. A happy fusion of sounds from all over the globe, a little bit of an Incubus meets Sublime vibe, but with even more colour, and slightly less swearing. We expect festivals will feel empty without … Continued
I haven’t been excited about a heavier sounding band since I scratched up all of my Papa Roach, Puddle of Mudd, Seether, and Audioslave CD’s in a low quality car system five years ago. What a poor sentence to open with, way too lengthy, I apologize. Anyway, five years is a long time to be without a … Continued
People talk about the power of music; how it can change your day, heal your heart, mend your broken soul. It’s true. So true in fact, that we become addicted to music that works for us. We obsess over it, we don’t feel calm without it. If you suffer from anxiety, depression, panic attacks, or … Continued
100 Grandkids is classic Mac, but, perfectly doused in modern Mac, and all the higher thinking that shone in his recent projects.
