Katie is delighted to welcome back to the show Melbourne Americana duo Great Aunt – Megan Bird and Chelsea Allen, who are partners in music and in life. Great Aunt have just released their debut CD, A Mess That I Left, and they tell Katie all about recording the songs at home; the effect of the marriage equality postal vote on Megan’s family, which includes two queer kids, one a lesbian and one a trans man; their adoration of Dolly Parton and US trio I’m With Her; and the origin of the name ‘Great Aunt’. Here is the playlist:
- What If I Told You – Gabriel Kahane
- We Need to Start Again – Great Aunt
- Oh, Cruel World – Great Aunt
- Here I Am – Dolly Parton and Sia
- Diggin’ Holes – Great Aunt (live in the studio)
- Weeds – Bennett, Bowtell & Urquhart
- See You Around – I’m With Her
