– It’s been almost 20 years since Midnight Oil unveiled a new longform release. With mini-album The Makarrata Project out Oct 30 and timely in ways nobody could have anticipated, we are thrilled to have the band performing their single ‘First Nation’ along with two very special guests, who also appear on the album version of the song – one of Australia’s most successful female artists, Jessica Mauboy, and NSW Mid North Coast talent Tasman Keith
– Kylie Minogue drops her new album DISCO on 6 Nov, and it’s the salve we all need right now. With over 80 million albums sold worldwide, Kylie has gifted The Sound an exclusive look at her upcoming global ‘Infinite Disco’ livestream event – tune in on Nov 1 to catch her performance
– ARIA Song of the Year nominees and five-piece The Rubens recently announced they’ll release fourth album 0202 on 12 Feb, 2021. Watch them perform new single ‘Time Of My Life’ on the rooftop of Sydney’s International Convention Centre (ICC Sydney)
– RUEL’s 2018 debut READY introduced the world to the then 15-year-old’s songwriting talent. The ARIA winner – who has amassed 300m+ streams globally – will perform new single ‘As Long As You Care’ lifted from new EP Bright Lights, Red Eyes
– Vera Blue (also known to her mum and dad as Celia Pavey) is hard at work on her upcoming second album. She recently made her eagerly anticipated solo return with striking new break-up inspired single, ‘Lie To Me’
– Teaming up with Midnight’s Oil to perform on their new song ‘Terror Australia’ is Melbourne-based singer Alice Skye. The Wergaia and Wemba Wemba songwriter’s second album is set to be produced by Jen Cloher, and released via Brigg’s Bad Apples Music label
– Her debut single ‘Work For Me’ blew up triple j’s textline back in September, and she calls Elton John a fan, with the superstar including the song in his recent Apple Music radio show. Meet rising Melbourne singer Mia Wray
And that’s not all…

Our ‘From The Vault’ segment next week features amazing live footage filmed back in 1989 Sydney and starring one of Australia’s best sonic inventors, a songwriter who served as mentor and inspiration to artists such as INXS, Paul Kelly and Cold Chisel – ARIA Hall of Fame inductee Richard Clapton.
Finally, we celebrate a legendary band some consider ‘the Aussie Rolling Stones’ – TheMasters Apprentices. Thirsty Merc, Davey Lane (You Am I), Alex Lahey and Gretta Ray join forces in our ‘Tribute’ section.
All this and more, delivered right to your home. Don’t miss the return of The Sound, next Sunday 1 November!

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.
