Chappell Roan took home the Grammy for Best New Artist in 2025, clocked more than 68 million streams in the first 6 months of 2024 and she's currently touring Australia, headlining Laneway music festival. Over the last few years, female-made, female-focused pop has been in the middle of a full-blown renaissance and all signs suggest it’s carrying straight through into 2026 - with artists like Sabrina Carpenter and Charli XCX still dominating and Lily Allen re-entering the race. In this bonus ep of the Briefing from 2024 Sacha Barbour-Gatt is joined by Nic Kelly, host of The Hot Hits on the Hit Network, to unpack the female pop revolution and the secret ingredient to becoming a pop star today.

New Zealand was host to two contrasting acts this week, playing out at the opposite ends of the North Island.

Wellington beaches are a no-go zone after a water treatment plant outage sent raw wastewater into the sea off the southern coast. This morning, we spoke with Wellington Mayor Andrew Little about the situation; The latest unemployment figures show Auckland continues to have a higher unemployment rate than the rest of New Zealand; We also spoke to the boss of a Kiwi start-up that has created software to assess risks from hazards such as climate change; Plus, the big butterfly hunt is on - where have all the monarch butterflies gone this summer?; And Chappell Roan is among the artists hot to go at Laneway in Auckland. We spoke with the managing director of TEG Live about the festival's growing popularity.
That's the sound of Chappell Roan, one of 25 international and local artists set to perform today at the Laneway festival, held at Auckland's Western Springs stadium. David Benge, managing director of TEG Live New Zealand spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Eddie Johnston is first and foremost a huge music fan – he grew up loving New Zealand artists like The Mint Chicks and the Phoenix Foundation, and understood music in the paradigm of CDs and scenes. For many artists, even young musicians, those were the archetypal good old days, before social and streaming broke the model. But Johnston, who performs under the name Lontalius, has a clear-eyed and unsentimental response to the changing times, and tries to find ways to love making music even in the big tech era. He joins Duncan Greive ahead of his Laneway slot to explain how he learned to stop worrying and love the platforms, deep flaws and all. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Interview by Ali WilliamsTeenage Joans members Tahlia Borg and Cahli Blakers took time out to chat with HEAVY about their new track, My Hearts Dead, and their current tour with Slowly Slowly.Hailing from Radelaide, Teenage Joans were winners of JJJs Unearthed High back in 2020, and since then they have flooded the air waves with a string of melanchol,y pretty punk rock hits. In their short time on stages, they have racked up some impressive achievements from playing the same stage with Foo Fighters to rocking it on the festival runs at Laneway, Good Things, Groovin the Moo, Unify and more.The girls are excited to be touring with fellow Aussies Slowly Slowly, being huge fans of the band themselves, and are looking forward to warming up the crowds for the shows. Their music resonates with fans as they aim to give their punters the full homegrown experience, being very hands-on with all they produce from their music to videos and even their merch. Not only do Teenage Joans enjoy the DIY aspect, they also feel that part is integral to their image and what they want to pass on to their audience to feel connected. Their most recent track was filmed and produced themselves, mainly due to a lack of funds after returning from a US tour, but that aside, they feel it matched well with the essence of the track and conveys synchronicity.Tahlia plays drums and vocals, and Cahli does vocals and guitar and plays bass in the studio, keeping true to their theme of being hands-on and independent artists. They've described their sound as being as if Blink-182 played Kesha, which is fairly accurate on all levels. The girls have also done a session of JJJs Like a Version where they wanted to cover a Kesha track that didn't make the cut, but was the drive and inspiration behind their latest song, My Hearts Dead, which is a compilation of who they are musically and personally.Being just schoolgirls when they started out, they talk about doing gigs on school nights, having their parents as roadies and manning the merch stands for them, saying it has helped them navigate growing up in the spotlight as young females in the music industry. They also discussed playing with their idols, new music, future direction and their hometown gig on October 31 plus more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.
