The last 3 years have been a whirlwind for brother and sister duo, Angus & Julia Stone. Their debut album 'A Book Like This' released in 2007 glided easily in to the hearts of Australians. It debuted top 10 on the national ARIA album chart and maintained a spot in the top 100 for over a year. In 2008 it earned Angus and Julia 6 ARIA award nominations and reached platinum sales status.
The new single 'And The Boys' has been enjoying high rotation on Triple J, is released today and comes with two bonus tracks 'Change' and 'Take You Away' when purchased through the iTunes store. The track was co-produced by Angus & Julia with Brad Albetta (Martha Wainwright) and is the first taste of new material from their forthcoming sophomore album 'Down The Way'. The lyrics inspire joy gained from lost love and it takes you from darkness to light with it driving drum beat, beautiful touches of melatron and moog behind the acoustic guitars and dancing piano and bass. The song really highlights the power of the beauty that can be found in even the hardest of times.

A world music supergroup, Djan Djan is the name of a collaboration between Malian kora master, Mamadou Diabate, tabla savant Bobby Singh, and blues guitarist-singer-songwriter Jeff Lang.
When they met in 2008, no one could predict the musical alchemy that would occur; and the result of that spontaneous day of recording is an album of astonishingly beautiful pieces, to be performed lives for us by 3 true masters of their craft.
He was the voice of a generation…. Hear the unforgettable songs. Share the emotion of his amazing story.
One in two households in Australia had a Cat Stevens album in the seventies. Maybe you were one of them, and if you are, here is an opportunity to live and enjoy Cat's amazing music. London born Paul Dillon has had a lifelong love affair with the music and poetic lyrics of the fabulous songwriter. He played in many of the same venues in London's West End in which Cat began his extraordinary success story.
Paul Dillon, accompanied by his band, The Tillermen, will present the Wild World - The Cat Stevens story and twenty-two of Cat's greatest songs including Moonshadow, Peace Train, Where Do the Children Play, So Very Young, Morning Has Broken, Matthew and Son and many more.
Paul's resemblance to Cat Stevens, both physically and vocally, is uncanny, and the stories he tells of Cat's progression from a teenager to his current lifestyle and change of name are worth hearing.
But, as one critic said, "… it is the music that enthrals you for almost two hours. It seemed like ten minutes to me!"

Best known for her heavily R&B influenced singles "Don't Walk Away" and "Stop Your Fussin", Toni Childs hit the big time in 1988 when her critically acclaimed debut album "Union" went Double Platinum in Australia. The same year she was nominated for three Grammy's, including Best New Artist. Her second album, "House of Hope" went three times platinum and in 1997, the release of "Many Rivers to Cross" caused her Greatest Hits album to top even that.
Her latest release, "Keep The Faith", is an emotionally hard-hitting album with a blend of roots, rock, folk and gospel songs. For those luck enough to catch Toni Childs when she supported the Jackson Brown tour earlier this year, her warm and engaging show is already well known. If you missed out that evening, then here's your chance to find out what all the fuss was about, when she returns to Cairns on her solo tour, performing two intimate shows at Tanks Arts Centre.
