Chris Mccann

Drawn to music from an early age, Chris' first album was The Beach Boys - Good Vibrations, a record he'd spent weeks saving up his pocket money for. Now after many years of second hand vinyl markets and countless concerts and festivals, Chris a painter and decorator by day, continues to chase the dragon for that next cool music discovery. Raised in Brisbane and now operating out of Noosa on Australia's sunshine coast, you can learn more about Chris at https://www.noosadecorating.com/

Sunrise – Ryan Bingham

Desert or Ocean?

I just can’t decide where my heart truly lies.

For anyone that’s spent time out in the middle of nowhere, you know what I mean…

Deep Slide Blues – Box Falcon

12 March 2019

Brisbane, Australia has been subjected to its fair share of ridicule….

For years we’ve worn the brunt of shit slinging from the southern states, regarding art, food and culture.

But in my opinion, we not only have the sunshine, but we also incubate some of Australia’s finest music – The Saints, Go-Between’s and Powderfinger – to name a few…. 

Can’t Say No – Beasts Of Bourbon

5 March 2019

The Beasts of Bourbon have been pleasing fans down-under since the early eighties.

 After decades of playing hard and truly living up to their name in every sense of the phrase, sadly we said goodbye last year to bassist Brian Hooper and guitarist Spencer.P.Jones. Unbeknown to the current line-up April 2018 marked the end of an era with their passing…

Camel Walk – Southern Culture on the Skids

19 February 2019

In the wee hours of the morning, long after any order or political correctness was present – The drunks line up for their turn at navigating the stereo.

Fuzzy – Grant Lee Buffalo

13 February 2019

I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to have this weeks’ track on the list.

My playlist  is basically a virtual soundtrack of what goes through my speakers – so if I have a sudden urge to listen to a track – I do ( said scrabbling through the glove compartment.)

I must admit – if in company, I’ll always hear a track out… or at least fade out with the etiquette of a seasoned DJ – when I’m coherent LOL!..

Burden of the Cross – Dale Watson

6 February 2019

Grief and the loss of a loved one is devastating in anyone’s language…

From my own experience, unexpected loss has got to be one of the hardest. There’s just nothing that can prepare you for the roller coaster of emotions ahead…

Ramon Casiano – Drive-By Truckers

30 January 2019

I’m gonna slowly lower you into the high energy of this week’s artist…. 

This is an acoustic rendition that might just win you over before you delve into their extensive electric catalogue at depth.

Known for their hard hitting southern rock and overtly political songwriting -The Truckers bring so much more to the table than meets the eye…

Big Dwarf Rodeo – The Reverend Horton Heat

6 November 2018

The king of cool deliverers us a another cracker this week – celebrating all things that red blooded rockers love – cars, gals, beer, steak and rodeo – sliced & diced with hard boiled blend of rockabilly and a big bold side of Jim’s spicy humour sauce…

Loading Zones – Kurt Vile

30 October 2018

Every now and then you stumble upon an artist and the penny drops immediately…

I wasn’t a listener back in the days of “The War On Drugs” – I guess I’m a late starter – but I had an instant connection with the 2015 release of “B’lieve I’m Going Down”…

Great Eastern Highway – Delilah Rose & the Gunslingers

16 October 2018

I’m finding myself drifting off into the dark side of country all too often these days –

So with a recent request from a listener to lighten the f*ck up….here we are!  lol……

Lucky for me – this week marks the release of Delilah Rose and the Gunslingers EP  “Good Grief”…
