Dave McCormack has a golden voice box and wonderful ‘bitsa’ musical catalogue. As singer and songwriter for indie darlings Custard he’s told us Music is Crap and taken us to his new Apartment (baby), with releases extending from before Y2K all the way to Couples Fights happening in releases made before 2020 was just about the Rona.As a screen composer he’s made soundtracks for Australian screen icons like Rake, Jack Irish, and Redfern Now, and as if that wasn’t enough he’s also the voice of Bandit Healer from Bluey, Australia’s greatest Dad since the Norm, the ‘Life Be In It’ Bloke. Also a proud dad to two girls himself (who he sneakily steals ideas from!), the chat sees something shiny and gets distracted at times, but we defy you to resist his charm as it oozed from the speakers.

Somewhere in the music industry, between 'sex drugs and rock and roll' and The Wiggles, is the rest of us. 'Music Mothers and Others' is an audio parents group -a chance to discuss how parenting fits (or doesn't) into music industry life. During the series we'll talk to people from across the industry - artists, promotors, techs, broadcasters, writers, academics, teachers - anyone who has a gig in 'industry', whatever that means.

Hosts Liz Giuffre and Shelley Brunt are industry veterans, academics and parents - as well as members of the broader village. For more see us at https://musicmothersandothers.com/ and of course at 2SER FM, https://2ser.com/
