We made it in!
Thank you so much to everyone who voted for ‘Laced Up’ in this year’s Hottest 100. We’ve been pretty quiet, so it was a surprise to see it in there.
Over the last five years we’ve only dropped four songs – ‘I’m Good?’, ‘Show Business’, ‘A Whole Days Night’ and ‘Laced Up’, and to see all of them get into the count has been really special.
I say that to say this. It’s been five years since our last album. FIVE.
Enough is enough, the new album is on its way!
Also, while we’re on the subject of triple j. We want to share our gratitude to, and respect for Richard Kingsmill.
Richard recently exited one of, if not the, toughest jobs in music – heading up programming at Triple J. We’re sure that it’s an exhausting, and often thankless position for him and the team over there. But with Richard at the wheel we saw so many Australian artists careers launched and supported. A lot of artists in this country, including ourselves, owe their careers in big part to Richard.
He always showed us a massive amount of support, and for that we will be eternally grateful. We genuinely look forward to seeing where Richard’s immense wealth of musical knowledge and broadcasting talent lands next and wish him the absolute best. Thank you Richard.
