“Sweetie summon every ounce of swagger in the universe on their latest and use it to stomp all over your nice clean floors. It’s confident, it pushes the needles right up into the red, and it’s coming for you, ready or not ๐ฆ”

Fanzine #04 | Apr 2023
The cover this month is graced by the outstanding Clews, who blew the walls out at their show earlier this month. It wasn’t the only brilliant performance on Sydney’s stages though, and this issue features shows from Sweetie, WILSN, Good Ramen, the outstanding Turpentine Babycino, and tons more. Away from the stage, there’s also the […]
Sweetie @ Wayward’s, 1st Apr
“Thereโs always so much going on in a Sweetie set, itโs hard to keep pace. The songwriting is so sharp and densely packed with detail itโs easy to miss that itโs also built to bamboozle you with joy and dancing at the same time. Itโs a lot to process. The lungs are left empty and […]
KIANโs latest fizzy banger “All Of Me” was the runaway most-added track on the most credible Australian new music playlists this week, his collab with the outstanding Becca Hatch making it onto nearly 40% of them.

The Buoys – I Want You
“The Buoys return to the fray with a hair-shaker for the ages, a track so full of vim it’s spilling over the sides and pooling on the floor. One of the best tracks they’ve written – and hoo yeah, that’s saying something ๐”
Sweetie @ Kelly’s On King, 21st Oct
“Sweetie play with such joy and vim itโs impossible not to get swept away, a tidal force of smiles and smarts. Itโs art made into a dancefloor, a night out turned into a story, a life lived transformed into a song sung. Above all though, itโs the explosion of happiness, the sheer pleasure of telling […]
Sweetie @ Mary’s Underground, 6th May
“Sweetie are as ambitious as ever tonight, with a headline set to launch their oh-so-fine โCollisionโ EP that features old ones, never-played new ones, and a whole bloody choir of Sydney ace faces. A fabulous band, poetic in their songwriting, capable of conjuring magic from the bare minimum then dropping fully-maxed out loon moments. Few […]
Sweetie @ HiWay Bikini, 1st Apr
“Sweetie continue to intrigue, a project in its youth yet with the quiet power and the understated intensity to grab hold and not let go. While we wait patiently for recorded material to eventually emerge there are still these shows – as occasionally dark and strange as life itself, but performed with joy and pleasure.”
Sweetie @ The Lansdowne, 21st Jan
“Sweetieโs second show emphasises the core of this band – they *really* care. Some bands project mayhem, some poetry, some technical skill, but at the heart of Sweetie is… well, heart. The range on offer in this set is broader than you can take in, but every single one bounds off the stage, chock full […]
