This episode we speak to Bella Jessen. A musician, student and genuine young person, Bella got in touch with us for a project she was doing on mothers and listening - we couldn't resist! In this chat she asks us questions as well as the other way around, and it's a lovely way to explore how music can help us build our identities, as well as learn who our parents and carers are as people, rather than just people we roll our eyes at when we're teenagers. You can catch Bella's music at Crushed Lavender and The Robbies - a future star for sure!

Our guests today are Ben Lee and Georgia Maq, who are about to embark on their “Two Most Annoying People You Love Tour” around Australia. If you know Georgia from Camp Cope but don't know Ben then do a deep dive - and vice versa if you're a Ben fan but are new to Georgia's solo stuff in particular.



Annoying fans from the nineties, naughties and today with their stubbornly brilliant lyrics and melt the hardest of hearts harmonies, coming together means joining different generations and approaches to bloody good Aussie music.



We’re thrilled to have them here, telling us about what they do and how the industry could do it better.

Kelly-Dawn Hellmrich is a musician, music industry member and author of the excellent new book It’s Not For You: Inside the artists rewriting the rules of the Australian music scene. With interviews from the who you already know, and who you really SHOULD know of Australian music, the book showcases the stories, sounds and perspectives that are not as often considered in the Oz Music sphere. Also a mum and member of the broader village, with us she talks about raising kids, breaking down gates and what it might be like if we all thought outside the box a bit more. Currently on break as a musician (her band Camp Cope said goodbye a while back), we also talk about what the next steps might be.

We are so excited to have you with Kelly – you can hear the ep below and read more of her chat with Liz at TheMusic.com.au
