Kicking off our new music this week is a Eurovision song contestant for Ireland in 2013. Ryan Dolan came last that year, but since then he’s placed first in our eyes, by coming out in 2014 in a heartfelt radio interview. Ryan has a new song, ‘Uptown Downtown’, that’s on the money, and we think you will enjoy it.
Out-and-proud Perth-based singer-songwriter Troye Sivan knocked the socks off the music world with his Wild EP in September, scoring a top 5 and selling 50,000 copies in the US alone, as well as a top 5 in New Zealand and the UK and number 1 here in Australia. Blue Neighbourhood is his debut full-length album due out 4 December – ‘Youth’ is the lead single.
A trio (or is it a quartet?) of Aussie faves follow.
Justice Crew get back to their urban roots with ‘Good Time’, while Guy Sebastian finds the middle ground between his urban ‘Battle Scars’ and pop ‘Tonight Again’ with ‘Black & Blue’, the first single from his forthcoming new album.
And then, OMG. The sisters are doin’ it for themselves in a camp-tastic disco Christmas song! Do you think Kylie and Dannii were perhaps thinking of JOY 94.9 when they recorded this song together? We like to think so, anyway. 100 Degrees and the 16-track album Kylie Christmas are instant gay stocking fillers.
Set your alarm and tune into Rochén and Michael on the six at six for the newest songs to the mix, every weekday at 6am Melbourne time.
