Highlight Of The Year

My highlight of the year was witnessing Haim play a sold out show at the Enmore Theatre shortly after the release of their amazing second album, Something To Tell You. It was the first time they'd played a lot of the new material for an audience - and they did a cool signing at a record store in Newtown that week as well!

Prediction For 2018

If the world doesn't end, I predict more amazing releases, more great gigs and more Aussie acts making it big overseas!
