After rocking music lovers with their sophomore album Reality Kicks in 2014, Melbourne’s Sydonia are set to do it all again with number three.
The band are still writing and working on the preproduction for the release, but word is that this one is sounding harder, heavier, and faster than anything we’re heard from Sydonia before. We should see a single released late in the year before the finished product hits stores in early 2016.
If that’s sounding like an age away, then make sure you get yourself along to one of Sydonia’s shows this autumn. They’ll take songs from that forthcoming release in embryonic form up and down the East Coast, so this will be fans first chance to hear what’s coming next. The final Melbourne show will also help the band fundraise for a trip to the United States around May, so make sure you get along to show your support.

Bonez have really impressed me with their new single “Lemonade,” a cleverly crafted rock track with funky vocal licks and big crunchy chords. The song’s the first lifted from the band’s soon-to-be-released EP Let’s Get Weird.
Bonez are taking Barefoot Alley along for most of the ride, a bluesy rock act with the hottest brother and sister team since the White Stripes. They recently wrapped up a team with Lepers and Crooks so they’re going to be in fine form when they hit the stage. They’re preparing to release a new single “Take a Guess” in mid-February.
