featured gig |

Daniel Livingstone and Mark D’Angelo, ‘Livingstone’, are a singer/song writing duo who have just been signed to Warner Music worldwide on a complete 360 deal. The pair met on a friend’s project and through their mutual love and admiration of jazz and classical music, collaborated to write a song together. The result was an uncategorisable mix of pop coupled with electronic beats, smooth and enticing vocals with R&B elements. From this chance collaboration, Daniel and Mark seem to have found their musical match in each other forming ‘Livingstone’. Now producing, recording and mixing in their own studio, ‘Livingstone’ are currently writing their first album and have their sights set on the big bright lights of the world stages!

featured gig |

Sydney foursome The Holidays’ debut album, Post Paradise, may have been a long time coming, but it has categorically been worth the wait. The first two singles, Moonlight Hours and Golden Sky, hinted at the exciting musical re-birth this band has taken over the past 18 months, yet do not exclusively define the depths of this blissful musical journey. Formed in 2007, the band quickly made their mark on the Australian musical landscape. The release of two EP’s at opposite ends of 2008 saw them scoring Triple J rotation, share stages with The View, Jamie T, The Temper Trap & Little Red, and regularly name-checked as one of the nation’s most promising new acts before bunkering down to prepare their long-player.
