The Firetree

Centred around the vocals of Dale Buchan and Josephine Cubis, The Firetree are an independent five-piece band from Byron Bay, Australia. Their energetic live shows, blending an indie folk sound with rock sensibilities, have ensured a loyal fanbase on the east coast of Australia.

Following in the tradition of Angus & Julia Stone and Stars, the band has a strong focus on songwriting. Their catchy, upbeat tracks are brought to life with sublime harmonies and the contrast between two different yet complimentary vocalists.

Now The Firetree are releasing their highly anticipated debut EP, The Space Between. Recorded at 301 Studio with acclaimed producer Murray Burns, The Space Between showcases the unique sound and duality of the group.

The Resignators

Kate Miller-Heidke

Fearless. That was the word that kept coming up when Australian singer/songwriter Kate Miller-Heidke was dreaming up her sophomore record (and US debut) Curiouser. Fun was another one. The fact that she dared to dream either while her 2007 Australian debut Little Eve was still ringing loud and clear suggests a couple more F-words. Forward. And Fast.

She had a tough act to follow. After a trilogy of EPs in her home country from ’04 to ’06 – “Telegram”, “Comikaze” and “Circular Breathing” – Little Eve burst onto the scene to land in the upper reaches of the ARIA charts and earned the singer a host of accolades. The album went Gold and clocked up four ARIA nominations.
