Kendrick Lamar is one of the most critically acclaimed and successful rappers of our time. His every new release jolts culture in a new direction, ever so slightly, and has so since his second studio album Good Kid, M.A.A.D City, released in 2012. His reach has been monumental, with over 13 billion Spotify streams, 12 Grammy awards, and over 6 million albums sold worldwide.

His fourth album DAMN. is another triumph, with a debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 – marking his third time at the top spot – and earning him five Grammys from seven nominations. Lead single ‘Humble’ took out the coveted #1 spot in triple j’s Hottest 100 of 2017.

In a short but illustrious career, Lamar has made an incredible mark on the music world.

The Wombats have an uncanny knack for writing incredibly catchy songs. A Guide To Love, Loss and Desperation, featuring indie-rock cult classic ‘Lets Dance to Joy Division’, is a witty collection of dance floor-filling indie pop gems that are loaded with savvy pop culture references, angsty coming-of-age observations and utterly infectious hooks. Selling over a million copies worldwide, the album went platinum in the UK and Gold in Australia, soared up the heart-seeker charts in the US, and was the triple j feature album of December 2007.

They come to our shores armed with their latest album ‘Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life’. The LP is a giant leap into maturity, a record that’s still instantly sing-along but demands to be taken seriously.

It’s no secret Australia has always had a love affair with The Wombats; selling out and upgrading multiple shows across the country and delivering massively energetic festival sets at The Falls Music and Arts Festival, Groovin’ the Moo and Splendour in the Grass. Don’t miss your chance to celebrate the album that debuted indie-rock royalty this July!

Master of mashups, producer Girl Talk (aka Gregg Gillis) is back in Australia for the first time since 2012. 

Following the success of his 2006 album ‘Night Ripper’, Girl Talk steadily toured over the following six years, bringing his renowned confetti-covered and sweat-soaked performances to venues ranging from house party basements to major festivals. 

He followed it up with ‘Feed the Animals’, which was ranked number four on Time's Top 10 Albums of 2008. Next came ‘All Day’ in 2010, which was brought to life as an album-length music video called ‘Girl Walk//All Day’. 

In 2013, Gillis decided to take his first significant hiatus from the road since his initial national exposure. The break from live material preparation allowed Gillis time to explore some ideas slightly removed from his trademark hyper-mashup style. In turn, he began working on beats with a wider range of samples, some more obscure than what he would normally use in his Top 40-focused work. He teamed up with legendary Philadelphia rapper Freeway on the collaborative EP, "Broken Ankles." The 2014 release combined both artists' distinct, high-energy styles into a continuously flowing collection of bangers.

Formed in 2002, MGMT released their breakthrough, influential and Grammy winning debut album ‘Oracular Spectacular’ in 2007, with tracks 'Electric Feel’ and ‘Kids’ becoming global hits. They followed this up with 2010’s ‘Congratulations’ and 2013’s self-titled ‘MGMT’. Earlier this year they released their highly anticipated new album ‘Little Dark Age’, produced by the band in collaboration with Patrick Wimberly (Chairlift, Kelela, Blood Orange), and Dave Fridmann (Flaming Lips, Spoon, Tame Impala). The album has already received critical acclaim, with The Guardian perfectly describing the record as “a deliciously odd return to form”, and NME praising the release with “MGMT have thrown open the doors and welcomed you back into their world”. 

MGMT are about to hit the road again and will perform at a bunch of festivals across Canada, USA, Europe and the UK before heading south to play Splendour in the Grass this July!

The transformation and development in Ben’s writing from his hugely successful debut LP back in 2011, to the immersive darkness of 2014’s ‘I Forget Where We Were’, and now on the cusp of another new sonic phase in 2018’s ‘Noonday Dream’ (dropping June), could and should cement his status as one of the UK’s most gifted and unpredictable of artists. 

‘A Boat To An Island On The Wall’, the first single from the album, is the first new music that Ben and his band have shared since the release of his number 1 charting second album, I Forget Where We Were, in October 2014.

‘Noonday Dream’ was recorded in numerous studios between South West France and South West England, including Sawmills and was produced by Ben himself. ‘A Boat To An Island On The Wall’ is a typically uncompromising, richly textured epic of an introduction to Ben’s next body of work.

Formed by high school friends Nick Littlemore and Peter Mayes, PNAU burst onto the scene with their 1999 debut album Sambanova, going on to win an ARIA Award for Best Dance Release in 2000.

Subsequent albums Again (2003), Pnau (2007) and Soft Universe (2011), spawned a raft of hit singles including “Wild Strawberries”, “Baby”, “Embrace” and “The Truth”.

"Chameleon" was the first single from the acclaimed electronic act in over four years and is spiritually anchored in the medicinal plant culture of the Peruvian Amazon and laced with all the energy we expect of the Australian outfit, who are now a trio with the addition of newest member, ARIA Award-winning producer Sam Littlemore.  "Chameleon" also welcomed the addition of Kira Divine on vocals, bringing a new and electrifying layer to the band’s vision and live show.

In November 2017, PNAU released their fifth studio album, Changa, and walked away with the ARIA Award for Best Dance Release for "Chameleon", heralding with unmistakable conviction, PNAU is back. 

To this day, the group maintain their reputation as one of “Australia’s Best Festival Acts” (inthemix) - a testament to their timeless music and prolific nature.

The best pop music is built on contradictions. It creates songs so immediate they stay with you for life. Creating his second album, ‘Electric Light’, James Bay is not only aware of the precarious equilibrium needed to succeed in this pop world, but he’s determinedly embraced the challenge head on.

Raised on a music diet of Eric Clapton and Michel Jackson as a child, he was a blues purist in his teenage years, served his musical apprenticeship as an open-mic troubadour and then emerged with a series of pop songs like ‘Let It Go’ and ‘Hold Back The River’ as he made his debut with 2015 album ‘Chaos And The Calm’. Immediate anthems, the tracks earned Grammy nominations, an Ivor Novello award, a nod from GQ, plus recognition that took him from wins in best new act categories in 2015 to triumphs as best solo/ male artists the following year at both the Q Awards and the BRITS.

Bay went on to sell out shows across the globe, plus scored a host of key slots at prestigious festivals including Glastonbury, Isle Of Wight, Coachella, and Lollapalooza.

After 16 years adrift, The Avalanches returned triumphant in 2016 with their stunning second album, ‘Wildflower’. Picking up where their iconic debut Since I Left You Left off, its thrilling mix of wild party jams and gorgeous psychedelia had us falling in love all over again, a journey into a kaleidoscopic world of sound.

The album scored glowing reviews around the world, nailed number one on the ARIA album charts and hit the Top 10 in the UK. Live on stage, the group blend iconic classics (Frontier Psychiatrist Flight Tonight) with new favourites (Frankie Sinatra Subways) in a joyous block party that’s guaranteed to be crazy in the coconut. They made their triumphant post-hiatus return to the stage at Splendour 2017, and now those musical mavericks who never gave a damn what anyone else thought, are heading back to Byron Bay. Get ready to dance!

Three J-award album nominations, sold-out headline tours, six appearances in the top 60 of Triple J's Hottest 100, renowned performances at major festivals around the world, an Australian tour with Weezer and four critically acclaimed records have made Ball Park Music one of the most respected acts in the country. There’s no doubt you’ve had at least one of their vibrant indie-rock tunes and self-deprecating anthems stuck in your head for weeks.

Their 2016 hit record ‘Every Night The Same Dream’ mixed everything from hip hop drums, close mic-ed vocals and far away lyrics to shimmering guitars and organs, proving again that BPM are a band who are not only great writers and players, but a band who have that trust between members to play the right stuff at the right time. They dropped single ‘Exactly How You Are’ in 2017 to rave reviews, and we’re super excited to hear it live at SITG!

Sydney three piece Middle Kids’ debut album ‘Lost Friends’ is the kind of album that sucker-punches you in the gut, revealing its nuances only after repeated listens. They kept the songs’ edges jagged, the production clean, keen to let stray imperfections imbue warmth and a human touch.

As the band’s lyricist, Hannah Joy is unflinching in her ruminations, which often reflect not only the world’s turbulent state of affairs, but also the optimism and happiness that keep us afloat.

Currently touring Australia, UK and US, Middle Kids will hit stages at Governor’s Ball, Field Trip and Firefly music festivals before heading home to play Splendour 2018

Best mates first, band mates second - the heart of Hockey Dad has always existed in the friendship between duo Zach Stephenson and Billy Fleming, who first met in early childhood, growing up two doors apart in the laid back coastal town of Windang, NSW.

Two albums later and Hockey Dad have exploded onto the Aussie scene - kicking off 2018 with the release of ‘Blend Inn’, debuting on the ARIA charts as the #1 Australian album in the first week and #6 on the overall charts. The album was also made feature album on triple j. Following Blend Inn’s release, the boys embarked on a national tour, selling out all dares within 24 hours and quickly adding more.

2018 sees them with the world in their sites, including headline tours through New Zealand, North America and Europe, including a spot on coveted Belgian festival Pukkelpop.

The growth that Hockey Dad have experienced over the past 18 months has been no accident. The fast-paced, punk style of Billy’s drums is executed in perfect synchronicity with Zach's jangly guitar, anthemic choruses and ever confident vocals to give life to their unmistakable and infectious brand of rock-pop.

As the most outlandish member of Chicago’s diverse SAVEMONEY collective, Towkio creates music that’s both sonically pleasing and foot-movingly up-tempo.The Chicago-born half-Mexican, half-Japanese rapper, producer, and songwriter released his debut LP WWW. in 2018 via American/Republic Recordings, recorded at the iconic Shangri-La and executive produced by Rick Rubin and Lido. WWW. was ambitiously released from the stratosphere, making Towkio the first rapper to drop his album from “space”.

At age 19, Towkio embarked on a musical quest. Inspired by the likes of Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and André 3000, he conjured up a hybrid of house-inspired dance beats and wordplay on his 2012 Community Service EP. In 2015, .Wav Theory was critically acclaimed and landed into the hands of Rick Rubin who immediately “got” him.

After signing to American Recordings in 2017, Towkio took to Shangri-La Studios and assembled WWW. in just two months. The unseen frequencies of WWW. translate that power through 13 tracks. For as unpredictable as the full vision gets, there’s one goal at the end for Towkio— “I want people to just feel high when they listen,” he leaves off. “If you’re willing to let it, this music can take you to that state of euphoria. I hope they open up and feel it.”

The rise of Zambian-born, Melbourne-based multidisciplinary artist Sampa The Great has been nothing short of spectacular. Her 2017 mixtape Birds And The BEE9 was released to wide critical acclaim and was recently recognised by the prestigious Australian Music Prize, who named it the album of the year for 2017.

Both deeply intimate and outward looking, Birds And The BEE9, takes musical influences from Sampa's African upbringing and lyrical content form her own experiences of hurt and pain. Working with a close circle of producers to help realise her musical vision - including Kwes Darko, Sensible J and Alejandro ‘JJ’ Abapo – the mixtape spans neo-soul to gospel and hip-hop, with Sampa shining as both a singer and MC. 

Having just finished her headline European tour as well as supporting Joey Bada$$, Birds And The BEE9 arrives after a mixtape and series of EPs and singles, which have attracted an increasing swell of support in Australia and beyond. Her audience of fans and industry alike continues to grow with each offering, with Sampa The Great fast-becoming one of the most important artists of our generation.

Dean Lewis’s enigmatic debut single “Waves” seduced music lovers across the planet early in 2017 – earning the Sydney-based singer-songwriter high rotation on Triple J and commercial radio and a place on influential digital playlists worldwide.

At the beginning of 2018 he claimed his third Gold selling single from Same Kind of Different EP with ‘Need You Now’, ‘Lose My Mind’ (Gold) and ‘Waves’ (3 x Platinum) and has just released the final single from the EP – the fan favourite “Chemicals”.  To date, Dean’s music has been streamed 148+ million times and his videos viewed 32+ million times.  He has sold out tours all over the world and has been based in the US for the last few months, touring across the country.

Make no mistake, this is just the beginning … Dean Lewis will be launching a new single leading up to Splendour In The Grass with his anticipated debut album coming later in the year!

Unearthed by triple j for Splendour 2015, Skegss have since charmed listeners right around the country with their warm surf-punk sound. They’ve just wrapped up a sold out regional tour which followed a nation wide EP run of shows and their latest single 'Spring Has Sprung' from their ‘Holiday Food’ EP, spent the summer on high rotation on triple j.

 Skegss have made a name for themselves with energetic, ripping live performances, garnering praise from The Music for their "infectious" on-stage chemistry and Moshcam who asserted they "seem to have some sort of hypnotic effect over their fans.”

Albert Hammond Jr’s fourth solo album ‘Francis Trouble’ explores a deeply personal topic – the stillborn death of his twin brother, Francis, and the lingering effects that event has had in his life and music.

Taking a page from Bowie, Hammond Jr says: “What the music says may be serious, but as a medium it should not be questioned, analyzed or taken too seriously. I think it should be tarted up, made into a character, a parody of itself. The music is the mask the message wears and I, the performer, am the message.”

The singer/songwriter and guitarist with The Strokes created ‘Francis Trouble’, an homage to both the death of his twin and his own birth, as well as the complexities of identity that arise because of their intermingling. 

Francis Trouble features the new singles Muted Beatings, Far Away Truths and Set to Attack. To celebrate the release Hammond Jr has performed with The Killers in North America, Franz Ferdinand in Europe and the UK and a North American headline tour, including sets at SXSW. 

Mallrat’s career has skyrocketed since her humble beginnings as a tween rapper in the suburbs of Brisbane. Her refreshingly honest observations of day-to-day life, relatable and confessional lyrics, and penchant for writing sticky melodies that you just can’t shake, have all shaped her into the kind of artist that is perfectly positioned to be Australia’s next big name in music. She now commands a huge following of fans, from her current base in Melbourne, through to gigantic international locations like Mexico City.

She’s been showered in acclaim from as diverse a range of outlets as the New York Times, NPR, NME, Beats 1, Noisey, Pigeons and Planes, Stereogum, Rolling Stone, Project U and Pilerats, just to name a few.

Meanwhile, 2018 is already shaping up to be her biggest year yet, with her new EP In The Sky set for release June 1, her single ‘Better’ landing in the 2017 triple j Hottest 100 (#46), and the follow up ‘UFO’ (feat. Allday) earning widespread international acclaim and huge streaming numbers. She also starred at SXSW, performed sold out debut US and UK tour shows, and her home shows have become must-see, sell out events. Quite simply, Mallrat is the future.

­­As an artist and songwriter, Yungblud lives to stir up the raw energy of rebellion. On his self-titled debut EP, the 19-year-old Northern England native confronts everything from gentrification to disenfranchisement to addiction, turning each track into an infectious anthem that packs endless cathartic power.

With his frenetic take on alt-pop equally inspired by punk, hip-hop, and UK garage, Yungblud uses breakneck flow and tongue-in-cheek attitude to deliver pointed lyrics about everything from gentrification to disenfranchisement to addiction without getting heavy-handed. “I want my music to always have a message, but I don’t want to preach to anybody,” says the Northern England native, whose given name is Dominic Harrison. “This music’s just an outburst of emotion and anger, and everything else going on in my head."

Yungblud, who has just finished touring Europe, is currently on the road for a U.S. spring tour with K. Flay in March. Next up, Splendour in the Grass!

Crooked Colours burst onto the scene in 2013 with breakout singles ‘Come Down’, ‘Capricious’ and ‘Another Way’, earning three consecutive #1's on Hype Machine and gaining a solid fan base around the world from the outset.  The result of a patient approach from an act determined to create a timeless debut, new album ‘Vera’ demonstrates diverse and layered productions from a breed proving themselves as one of Australia’s hottest rising acts in electronic music today. Hit singles 'Flow', 'I Hope You Get It and 'Come Back To You' have been picked up by radio stations and press around the world such as Radio 1, Eins Live, triple j, Majestic Casual to name a few.

Soccer Mommy is the project of twenty-year-old Sophie Allison, a Nashville native. She cut her teeth in her local DIY scene, going to shows and hanging out with other musicians, though she kept her own songwriting secret.

All that changed the summer before Allison left for college. She bought a Tascam digital recorder and began to experiment with production. A buzz began to grow around her Bandcamp recordings, leading to live shows and eventually a record deal, with 2017’s critically acclaimed ‘Collection’.

So Allison took the plunge. She toured with Mitski, Jay Som, Slowdive, and others, and was featured in the New York Times article “Rock’s Not Dead, It’s Ruled By Women.”

The bedroom project of Sophie Allison is now a full-time band with a new studio-album debut, Clean. Produced by Gabe Wax (War On Drugs, Deerhunter, Beirut) , ‘Clean’ is Allison’s journey out of the bedroom and into the studio. It’s an emotional album, heavy on themes of growth, isolation, and change, but balanced by a lightness of touch, and with hooks to spare. Clean is a true step forward, a mature, powerful album from an artist just coming into her power.

To call Elderbrook an electronic artist would be to undermine his many talents as a singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist. Alexander Kotz is the definition of versatile, a modern day triple threat - his musical influences range from country to rock, whilst he’s classically trained in piano and guitar.

Despite this, it was Elderbrook’s undoubtedly dancefloor-orientated collaboration with German duo Andhim that first cast him into the dance world spotlight; his distinctive lilting vocals resounding in clubs across the world.

Having been handpicked to support the likes of Hayden James and Rüfus Du Sol, Elderbrook’s profile has now grown significantly and he recently sold out his own headline shows in the states.

He’s has just released an incredibly popular collaboration with Camelphat, ‘Cola’. Upon release it was instantly picked up as Danny Howard’s Hottest Record in the World on Radio 1, and has picked up further support from Annie Mac and Pete Tong.

Still just in his early 20s, he’s now poised to release his biggest body of work, the 7 track EP ‘Talking’, due out this August. Showcasing Elderbrook’s diverse range of influences, the EP moves through downbeat lullabies, dramatic broken beats, neo-soul and chunkier house cut

Since the band's inception, Rolling Blackouts C.F. have carved out a unique place in the local musical landscape, with their penchant for hooky guitars and undeniable melodies married to lyrics that are intelligent and wide-eyed, with an unmistakably-Australian dry wit. The French Press EP landed on many 'Best Of 2017' lists, including The Guardian/The Observer 'Hidden Gems' and lead single 'French Press' made countless end of year lists including coming in at #10 on Rolling Stone’s Best Songs of 2017, while the band came in at #13 in Paste Magazine's Best New Artists. 

Having made waves internationally - they inked a deal with iconic US label Sub Pop at the start of 2017 and received high-rotation airplay on UK tastemaker BBC6 - the band spent much of 2017 on the road, including multiple sold out shows on their first ever EU tour. 

The band kick off 2018 with the release of single ‘Mainland’ which won them even more accolades from the likes of Pitchfork and high-rotation on triple j, community radio and more love from BBC1 and BBBC6. Having just released their second helping of new music via new single ‘Talking Straight’ and secured spots on Coachella, Shaky Knees, The Great Escape and Primavera festivals and with a killer debut album on the way, Rolling Blackouts C.F. show no signs of slowing down in 2018.

Angie McMahon is quickly gathering a reputation for moving audiences with her soulful ruminations of life, love and takeaway food.

Her honest songwriting and romantic melodies cover the full dynamic spectrum, shifting between gravelly intimacy and pounding rock. Angie pours it all out on stage, drawing inspiration from artists like Bruce Springsteen, Lianne La Havas and Tom Waits.

It’s been an enthusiastic entry into the music scene for a self-proclaimed slow. Angie released her first single ‘Slow Mover’ and second single ‘Missing Me’ to an outpour of support from like-minded fans and industry who have found themselves connecting to her sound, scoring high rotations across the airwaves on stations like Triple J and FBi.

She’s gone on to support Father John Misty, Angus & Julia Stone, Alanis Morissette and The Shins to name a few.

With 2018 set to be her biggest year yet, we can’t wait for her to make her Splendour debut!

Arriving in London at 20-years-old, having moved halfway across the world from Brisbane, Eves pushed herself into unfamiliar relationships and environments, which brought a remarkable maturity and sensuality to her effervescent pop music. Her time in London since 2015 has seen Karydas craft over 50 songs, the cream of which have been skimmed for her forthcoming debut album, dropping later this year.

Eves Karydas’ initial project Eves the Behavior, documented a young woman finding her place in the world. Now, from a new city, through new relationships, and with new experiences to draw from, Karydas uses her music to explore female strength, sexuality and empowerment via deep, melodic hooks and brilliant sonic atmosphere.

2018 has seen her release two bold new singles, ‘There For You’ and ‘Further Than The Planes Fly’. ‘There For You’, quickly found a following, climbing over 1.6 million streams on Spotify in no time at all.

Eves Karydas has only just wrapped up an Australian tour supporting alt-pop stars Cub Sport, as well as supporting British pop-star, Dua Lipa’s. These shows were Karydas’s first live appearances in Australia since 2015, when she commanded adoring audiences across the country for her stellar Laneway Festival and Splendour In The Grass performances. We’re stoked to welcome her back in 2018!

Amyl and the Sniffers are a punk band possessed by the spirit of seventies Australian rock. Amy Taylor (vocals), Bryce Wilson (drums), Dec Martens (guitar) are former housemates who formed the band, wrote a handful of tunes and released their debut EP, ‘Giddy Up’, all in a span of twelve hours.

Completing their line up with Gus Romer on bass, the band take their cues from a diverse bunch of legends including AC/DC, Cosmic Psychos, Dolly Parton and Die Antwoord, setting out to have as much fun as possible.

Their 2nd EP, Big Attraction, was released in February 2017, kicking off a stellar year for these young punks. Growing buzz around their blistering live show made the band a hot tip at Bigsound in Brisbane, while the band was added to festival lineups including Meredith and CherryRock17.

2018 sees Amyl and the Sniffers ratchet up another couple of gears with their first national headline tour in April followed by UK shows in May, and their first North American tour in June with fellow Melbournians King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard.

To say Ziggy Ramo’s voice is an important one in the Australian hip hop scene would be a gross understatement – over a very short period it’s become as integral as peers like Briggs and Remi.

At a time when artists like A.B. Original are (quite rightly) swinging sledgehammers in their efforts to expose Indigenous issues in this country, Ziggy is right there beside them with a cut-throat razor, slicing deep into the heart of race relations in modern Australia.

Sweden's Carl Garsbo, better known as Kasbo, may only be 22 years old but he is already becoming a dominant force in the indie electronic scene. His brand of soulful and evocative electronic music has garnered nearly 50 million streams in the past two years alone.

Coming off an incredibly successful single release on ODESZA’s Foreign Family Collective, it is clear that Kasbo is attracting the attention and admiration of some of the most influential tastemakers and producers in the scene today.

His five-track 'Umbrella Club' EP was released one year ago, exceeding its already high expectations and accumulating hundreds of thousands of downloads.

Over the past couple of years, Kasbo has taken his mesmerizing live show on the road and has graced a multitude of festival stages around the globe. Off stage, he's recently released his critically acclaimed debut album 'Places We Don't know'. Keep an eye on this brilliant producer as he is just getting started.

It’s been a big few years for South-West Sydney’s B Wise. After bursting onto the scene in 2015 with the infectious ‘Prince Akeem’, B Wise kept his name bubbling with a string of follow up singles; including favourites ‘Lately’ and ‘40 Days’. 

Shortly after these tracks surfaced, he caught the attention of Aus music stalwart Urthboy, who signed B Wise to his Elefant Traks label in June 2016. Wise quickly followed up with his label debut, the Semi Pro EP. The project's triple j championed single 'No Questions' showcased B Wise’s story-telling skills, touching on introspective themes far beyond his years.

What came next was 'Feel Something' in October 2017. Immediately added to rotation on triple j, the hard-hitting single might be B Wise's most immediate yet and a taste of what fans can expect from his forthcoming debut album. 

On the live front, B Wise has cemented himself as an unstoppable force. He's performed a game-changing run of dates, including national support slots for the likes of international superstars Schoolboy Q, Yelawolf, Vince Staples, G-Eazy and Freddie Gibbs, plus festival sets at Splendour In The Grass, Listen Out and Groovin' The Moo.

2017 was an incredible year for MUTO. Reaching millions of streams on Spotify, being hand selected by ODESZA as main support on their European album tour and conquering a 26-date tour across Australia, were just a few of the milestones this proud Sydneysider ticked off.

When MUTO dropped his instrumental rollercoaster ‘Through The Fog’ last year, the track garnered unprecedented support from Triple J. Championed by Richard Kingsmill, Dom, Zan and the Unearthed team, on top of consistent rotation on FBi, George FM, Syn and a plethora of community radio, the track was heard far and wide. Months later came the gem ‘Say Nothing’, a stunning composition, highlighting MUTO’s uncanny ability to craft warm electronic textures around Emerson Leif’s vocal prowess racking up nearly 4 million streams on Spotify.

With news of a new single next month and his debut 7-track EP released this winter MUTO is prepped to take on Australia, and then the world.

Ebony Boadu has become a symbol for bad ass females everywhere and has been making waves for all the right reasons. Although categorised as a hip hop DJ, she describes her music taste as anything with a good beat, fusing a plethora of genres to create energetic, infectious sets that you can’t help but dance along to.

But it’s not just her music that’s getting her noticed. When she’s not playing parties she’s throwing her own, co-founding the sell-out party ‘GIRLS’ at Hudson ballroom, which aims to give female DJs a platform to play in an otherwise male dominated field. And after getting behind the decks, she was chosen to take part in FBi Radio’s ‘Dance Class’ DJ mentorship program which has since allowed her to both mix and host on FBi Click as well as fill-in on FBi Radio’s hip-hop show ‘What’s Good’.

Outside of the club, you can find Ebony working on content for IZMZ – an online magazine that she co-created, that lead to her working alongside SBS as a presenter and featuring on MTV as an ‘MTV It Girl’.
