Laneous and the Family Yah Release Wacky “I Am Dog” Video
Laneous and the Family Yah is a band that definitely doesn’t take itself too seriously. That should be pretty evident on watching the film clip for their new single “I Am Dog,” which documents a day in the life of James Lane, the owner of the World’s First Dog, Cat and Pigeon Zoo. As you’ll…
Greenthief Makes a “Plea for Sanctuary”
Brisbane alterna rockers Greenthief have been building a solid reputation as a live act, so it only makes sense that the film clip for their new single “Plea for Sanctuary” showcases that raw, performance energy.

Aston Gives La Roux’s “Bulletproof” Classical Makeover
The people spoke and Aston listened. The Sydney based pop-classical act has released their cover of La Roux’s “Bulletproof,” as voted for by fans on their YouTube page.
