Track: Indie Dog’s ‘Vacillate’ — To Stay or Go?

Bodene Mckibbin February 17, 2026

Indie Dog’s “Vacillate” pairs a bass-led groove with lyrics that circle doubt and longing. Seb’s raw vocal sits against Yak’s elastic low end and Dylan’s steady pulse, turning uncertainty into something rhythm-forward and immediate. It’s a track about wanting closeness while sensing hesitation, capturing that uneasy space between staying and going.

Live Gallery: From Putney to Newtown: Transvision Vamp Reignite an Australian Love Affair 17.02.2026

Deb Pelser February 17, 2026

At Sydney’s Enmore Theatre, Transvision Vamp don’t simply revisit the late 80s, they detonate it. Wendy James returns to Australia armed with “Baby I Don’t Care”, “I Want Your Love” and a life story that threads through Mick Jones, Lenny Kaye and the New York underground. The result is less nostalgia trip, more living pop history played at full volume.

Album Review: Aaron Shaw – ‘And So It Is’: Tingling with raw beauty, an inspiring spiritual jazz statement.

John Parry February 16, 2026

The Breakdown What’s clear from the start is that the ensemble’s collaborative absorption of mood and meaning enriches ‘And So It Is’. Leaving Records – 9.0 This has to be said upfront, even before you get deep into the music this album is inspirational. Saxophonist/ flautist Aaron Shaw, one of the names to be named …
