Last week, the DZ Deathrays boys joined Murray Cook and his band The Soul Movers and got to work to film The Soul Movers’ (@soulmoversband) music clip for their first focus track, out in January 2019, ‘You Better Believe It!’
The DZ’s and The Soul Movers returned to the scene of the crime (the Balmain Town Hall) where they collaborated on the DZ’s film clip for Like People.
You want a word to describe The Soul Movers? How about electric.
Earning their stripes as one of Australia’s hardest working bands, The Soul Movers have taken their brand of soul to the USA and back again with the imminent release of their new album, Bona Fide. Fronted by Lizzie Mack and her brother in soul, Murray Cook, The Soul Movers include in their number, Andy Newman (The Visitors) and Marko Simec (Waiting For Guinness). Never content to spend a night indoors, after a continuous run of Australian dates The Soul Movers headed stateside to play shows from LA to NY as they cut Bona Fide in a series of iconic studios that occupy hallowed musical ground including: Fame, Muscle Shoals The Nutthouse, Royal and Sun Studios. At the latter, “X” marks the spot where Elvis sang, and that’s where Lizzie stood and delivered as the band lay down some of the finest grooves you’re likely to hear in 2019.
Heading your way on January 25 is the new single, ‘You Better Believe It’. Bona Fide releases in March. Buckle up … The Soul Movers are coming.

2018 has been a big year of collaboration for ex-Red Wiggle Murray Cook. He started the year joining the DZ boys at various shows around the country including Splendour In The Grass, finishing it interviewing musicians on the red carpet for The J Awards last month.
Check out the shenanigans that took place at the Balmain Town Hall last clip, where Murray had our favourite hard-rock lads heads in a spin! Here’s a taste of “Return of The Guitar Zombies” a fun take on the antics of the evening for The Soul Movers “You Better Believe It!” shoot. During the shoot, steam and smoke from the DZ’s spinning heads triggered the fire alarm multiple times as the DZ’s went nuts over Murray’s screaming guitar solo and were only brought into line by Lizzie with hand claps for her breakdown lines:
“I’m a hard talkin’ woman with her hand in the air! – you can na-na me but I just don’t car! – Yeah I’m a hard talkin woman with a put down stare! – go on and na-na me I’ll just leave you there.”
– Now that’s gotta be a mega-watt of musical woman-power!!
DZ’s seriously dug making the clip with the band, seriously dug the song (and especially the coldies in the fridge).
“The Soul Movers are a band of friendly people, the song rocks and they even brought us beers – that’s everything we love,” said DZ drummer Simon Ridley.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
