Returning with new album 'Let's Live A Life Better Than This', the titular frontman of A. Swayze & The Ghosts takes us through the songs on their latest record.

"We took things seriously from then on.”

Over the last four years, the Tasmanian group have put in the work to blossom into something special. Now, it all pays off..

There's a tonne of new music released every Friday and wading through it to find your next favourite album is an almost impossible task. 'The Music' team get it and we're here to help, bringing you our Album Of The Week each Friday. Here's why A Swayze & The Ghosts' 'Paid Salvation' is this week's pick.

After years of touring, Hobart’s A Swayze & The Ghosts are ready to release their debut album, 'Paid Salvation'. Jessica Dale chats with frontman Andrew Swayze about the record.

"This sounds like a good deal."

"It really shits me off when bands have this pedestal and they have the ability to influence so much around them and they waste it by singing about stupid shit."

'Connect To Consume' is here.

When three rising stars from the Splendour In The Grass 2019 line-up - Meg Mac, Thelma Plum and Andrew Swayze (of A Swayze & The Ghosts) - assemble for our photo shoot, Bryget Chrisfield hears about chance backstage meetings that turned into collabs, sleeping in the (uncovered) tray of a ute at a previous festival and the risks associated with stage invading during one particular band's set.

"The Triffid gets real messy real fast... "

Also, new music from Huntly and rising stars A. Swayze & The Ghosts..

"Seeing Luca Brasi in a smaller room was a great treat, let's hope they'll be back at the Lansdowne before too long."
