This Song Is Yours

Our guest this week is Dobby. The Filipino and Murrawarri musician, rapper, producer, composer and drummer has been building one of the most distinctive bodies of work in Australian music since he began releasing his own material in 2018. His 2024 album WARRANGU: River Story brought his music to a much wider audience, winning the ARIA Award for Best World Music Album and earning a shortlist nomination for the Australian Music Prize. Now Dobby returns with Marshmallow, due July 31st, an album that sees him exploring a completely different sonic space, alongside a brand new single, Free Your Mind, out today. On today's episode, Dobby joins us to talk about the making of Marshmallow and the creative shift it represents, the inspiration behind Free Your Mind, and what it feels like to step into such different sonic territory after WARRANGU: River Story.

Our guest this week is Ben Gibbard from Death Cab for Cutie. Nearly thirty years into one of indie rock's most celebrated careers, Death Cab have continued to grow, evolve and connect with audiences in a way very few bands manage to sustain. Last week they returned with I Built You A Tower, their eleventh studio album and their first on an indie label in twenty years. It's a record that draws on everything sonically the band have built across their catalogue, and one that feels like a genuine statement from a group who have never been content to stand still. On today's episode, Ben Gibbard joins us to talk about returning to an indie label and what that meant for the making of the record, the sonic world of I Built You A Tower, the songwriting process behind these new songs, and what Australian fans can expect when the band tour here in November.

Our guests this week are PASH. The South Australian indie pop four-piece have been making serious noise on the Australian music scene, wearing influences like INXS and The 1975 proudly while building a sound, aesthetic and identity rooted firmly in their Adelaide heritage. Last year the band - Jett, Orlando, Nic and Dan - signed a worldwide deal, and their self-titled sophomore EP, out now, marks another confident step forward for one of the country's most promising young acts. On today's episode, the whole band joins us to discuss the sophomore EP and the expectations they place on themselves to reach bigger audiences with each release, the origins of PASH and the development of their unabashedly Australian pop rock sound, and the thriving Adelaide music scene and what's behind the current wave of artists breaking out of the state.

Our guest this week is Jack Antonoff of Bleachers. A thirteen-time Grammy winner, one of modern music's most celebrated producers, with credits alongside Sabrina Carpenter, Kendrick Lamar, and Taylor Swift, and the frontman of New Jersey rock band Bleachers, Jack has spent years making Springsteen-esque, literary rock music that sits in a category entirely its own. Their 2024 self-titled record brought the band to new heights, culminating in a sold-out Madison Square Garden show, and last week they returned with their fifth studio album, Everyone for 10 Minutes, an evolved, deeply felt record exploring themes of hope, grief, and ordinary life. On today's episode, Jack joins us to discuss the sonic and production evolution on Everyone for 10 Minutes, how he distinguishes his creative voice in Bleachers from his work producing for other artists, and the ongoing development of his songwriting and where he still sees room to push.

Our guest this week is My New Band Believe. Best known as a founding member of critically adored Black Midi, Cameron Picton returns following the band's hiatus with My New Band Believe, a project that exists somewhere between solo endeavour and full band, built entirely on his own terms. The self-titled debut record has drawn widespread acclaim for its ambitious fusion of bombastic chamber pop and traditional folk songwriting. On today's episode, Cameron joins us to discuss the making of the My New Band Believe album and the creative vision behind it, the press reception it's been garnering, how he found the sound of this project in the wake of Black Midi, and what the future holds for touring the record, including whether Australia is on the cards.
