Evil Eddie – Flavour Country National Tour

Jim Steps

Evil Eddie, a name synonymous with the DIY ethic, classic beats with a pop edge, and all out fun, has been holed up in his own studio for the past year or so, tinkering away like a mad professor and putting the final touches on his debut opus.  Now, as Eddie emerges from the lab, he is ready to show the world what he’s been hiding. Giving truth to the adage ‘there’s no rest for the wicked’, Evil Eddie begins a 20 date national headlining tour almost immediately after the album dropped, starting in Byron Bay, Evil heads down to Tasmania, … Continue reading Evil Eddie – Flavour Country National Tour

Evil Eddie – Golden Age

Jim Steps

Evil Eddie the man who brought us Butterfingers, has finally returned in full force with a new single Golden Age from the long and highly anticipated debut album Welcome To Flavour Country. Golden Age sets the tone for the album to come and roots itself squarely in hip hop territory. Commenting on the generally vacuous state of modern hip hop culture and delivered with a sense of urgency, Golden Age is a potent blend of old school sounds and new school production values that’ll have you cursing the name of every last auto-tune rapper to top the chart in last ten … Continue reading Evil Eddie – Golden Age

Evil Eddie – (Somebody Say) Evil

Jim Steps

Following the release of his brand new single and video (Somebody Say) Evil, ex-Butterfingers front man Evil Eddie is hitting the road in June and July for a series of shows in his home state of Queensland. Released in May, (Somebody Say) Evil is the second single from Eddie’s soon to be released debut album tentatively titled Welcome To Flavour Country.  A little bit evil and a little more strange, the track is trademark left-of-centre Eddie – just the way we love it. With an APRA award for Most Performed Urban Work already to his credit, Evil (as he is … Continue reading Evil Eddie – (Somebody Say) Evil

The Winnie Coopers – Surface Parasites Album Launch [QLD]

Jim Steps

Geek hip-hop all-stars, The Winnie Coopers return in style with the launch of their hotly tipped new album Surface Parasites on October 23 at Fitzy’s Loganholme for a one night only Brisbane hip-hop triple bill party which also features The Optimen and The Coalition Crew. The Winnie Coopers have been working hard to move this country forward and out of a musical recession that… has seen the increase in boat arrivals for the likes of Justin Beiber, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry and have therefore taken the extraordinary fiscal approach by appointing a 15 year old school student as their … Continue reading The Winnie Coopers – Surface Parasites Album Launch [QLD]

The Winnie Coopers – The Hoodie EP Launch

Jim Steps

We all know a place like Surfers Paradise, or as the locals call it, Surface Parasites. A place caught somewhere between hope and despair, beauty and horror and love and hate. This is the cityscape backdrop for Gold Coast hip-hop stalwarts The Winnie Coopers’ third album, Surface Parasites. Yet this offering is more than a commentary on the neon-soaked and plastic environment the live five-piece call home, it is a vulnerable insight into their growth and development not just as musicians but also as people. “This is definitely our most honest album, and I guess it was time that Australia’s … Continue reading The Winnie Coopers – The Hoodie EP Launch
