Nowdays, anything is better than the Radio //////

Hey folks,


Sorry about the lack of posting recently. I've been recovering from the stress of uni exams on the South Coast for the last week. Absolutely beautiful, except my ipod broke... again.


In the few days since I've been back I've been sorting through the various unsigned artists on Triple J's Unearthed website [http://www.triplejunearthed.com/]. The site is fantastic for finding little music gems.

One of the standout artists I found was a brother/sister duo, named (very originally in my opinion) BrotherSister. The duo are from Adelaide, and are heavily influenced by classical and electronic music.

When listening to their music for the first time I was struck with the possibility that they could be the love child of The Notwist and Angus & Julia Stone... which isn't too bad all things considered.

Anywhoo, their debut self titled album was released in late 2005 in the US, and 2006 in Australia and I see a lot of possibility in this act.
