Ahead of her new album “You and I are Earth” we sit down with Anna B Savage – Backseat Mafia
Anna B Savage’s third album, You & i are Earth, feels like an invitation into a deeply personal yet universal exploration of connection—between people, places, and the natural world. Following her critically lauded albums A Common Turn and in|FLUX, Savage’s new work strikes a remarkable balance: intimate yet open-ended, delicate yet emotionally charged. Sounds of the sea and evocative strings open the record on “Talk to Me,” setting a tone that’s both tender and elemental. It’s an album that captivates not through grand gestures, but through its subtlety and intricacy. This delicacy is at the heart of You & i are Earth, an album steeped in Savage’s love for her…

Sydney’s Postcards from Pluto return to earth with ‘Colorado’ – a thumping, eviscerating explosion of a track. – Backseat Mafia
It wasn’t that long ago that rising Sydney band Postcards from Pluto blessed us with the track ‘What Do You Wear’ (see my review here), signaling a fresh, dynamic presence on the local music scene. Well, to prove this was no sonic accident, they have just unleashed a new track ‘Colorado’ into the universe and quite frankly it is astonishing to see what a mayure and electric presence they have (visible in the accompanying video). ‘Colorado’ has all the brutality and verve of something from the late lamented The Vines – there is a sense of controlled chaos that threatens to erupt, a thumping drive that resonates: cathartic and explosive.…
