Meeanjin/Brisbane-based duo STAHR have knocked it out of the park with “Loving Friend.” This ultra-cool desert rock track has gotten under my skin with its smouldering vocals and irresistible groove.
You can hear a palpable chemistry between Grace Harris and Samuel Shepherd as they trade vocals. They only began making music in 2024, but they’ve got enough swagger to convince you they’ve been doing it for years.
If you’re in Meeanjin/Brisbane tomorrow night, make sure you don’t miss STAHR playing the final Live & Unwrapped for this year at Blute’s Bar. Entry is totally free, although you can RSVP through Oztix.
