NEW RELEASE - It's 'Sweater' weather - Fat Pony warm us up with debut single.

Look, we’d be lying if we told you we haven’t been patiently waiting for Sunny Coast trio, Fat Pony to finally bring a single out.

Friends, today is that day, with the new track coming hot from Big Rock Studio.

Debut single, ‘Sweater’ has a lo-fi slacker swagger to it, reminiscent of early 90s alt/indie sounds that you’d see playing on Recovery. There’s just a hint of crunch to the guitar, and the rhythm section shifts between slight jungle toms, to a steady rock beat. Loving the the sprinkle of keys in the pre-chorus as well.

NEW RELEASE - Dorah Jacson releases new single, 'Lie Awake'

Following up from her recent single "Lurking", Sunshine Coast's Dorah Jacson (a.k.a Kayla Smart) is set to show off her talented songwriting skills again with the release of "Lie Awake". Kayla explains that the song "is about an experience I had meeting someone, and both of us instantly feeling as if we’d known each other forever. I didn’t have much time with this person, and it was a while ago now, so for me the song has a nostalgic, fleeting feeling to it. The whole experience was pretty surreal, like an old-school romantic film. It’s an extra special one because I usually find it hard to write nice songs – I often write when I am hurt or angry as a way of dealing with the pain. This song is for the lovers".
