Send us a textJoin Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musicianWhen a band has been creating music together for nearly three decades, something magical happens. The creative chemistry becomes almost telepathic, transforming into what SuperJesus bassist Stu Rudd describes as "the DNA of both of us being in this band."In this revealing conversation, Ruddy takes us behind the scenes of the recently released self-titled SuperJesus album and their extensive Australian and New Zealand tour, currently riding high on sold-out shows and enthusiastic fan response, the band demonstrates that their creative fire burns as brightly as ever. The album represents a new pinnacle in the songwriting partnership between Stu and frontwoman Sarah McLeod, who have developed an intuitive musical connection that transcends words. "There were times when we would look at each other and we wouldn't talk, but we knew that we had to put a new chord in there," he explains, offering rare insight into their creative process.The journey from their early days to becoming ARIA Award winners with platinum albums wasn't without challenges. With refreshing honesty, Rudd recalls the grueling work behind their "overnight" success – including rehearsing daily for 18 straight months. He reflects on how the band was often too busy with the practicalities of touring to fully appreciate their achievements at the time: "You guys are going platinum. Okay, yeah, well, we need petrol for the van because we're driving another 1,400 kilometres." Now, with the perspective of time, he can look back with well-earned pride at what they've built together. Between insights about the band, Stu also shares details about his work with supergroup The Filthy Animals and answers rapid-fire questions about his musical influences, favorite performances, and songs he wishes more people knew.Whether you're a long-time fan or discovering The SuperJesus for the first time, this conversation offers a fascinating window into the mindset of musicians who continue to create vital, powerful music decades into their career. Catch The SuperJesus on their current tour – tickets and dates available at superjesus.com.What has Ruddy been up to lately?  Let's find out!Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit: ThatRadioChick.com.au

Interview by Kris PetersThe Superjesus have been a mainstay on the Australian rock scene for more than three decades.Their infectious music coupled with arguably one of the best live shows in the country have endeared the band to generations of music lovers since their inception in the late 1990s, with the band's debut album Sumo in 1998 spawning fan favourites such as Down Again, Saturation and Now and Then.The follow-up, Jet Age, magnified the growing popularity of The Superjesus, delivering the smash hit Gravity as well as Secret Agent Man before Rock Music rounded out the trifecta in 2003.A brief hiatus from the mid 2000s gave the band members time to reflect on their personal music ambitions before deciding the world needed more of their music in 2013. This produced an EP, Love and Violence (2016), as well as a double live album but despite The Superjesus quickly reclaiming their status amongst Australia's elite touring band's, no new music has been forthcoming.That changes this Friday, March 21, when The Superjesus (self-titled) comes out, fuelled by the success of six previous singles Money (We're Only In It For Love), Lights Out, We Won't Let Go Until It's Over, Something Good, a cover of Generation X's Dancing With Myself and beautiful ballad Diamonds. This is the new Superjesus, a more soulful, engaging version of the band we know and love where song writing is king.HEAVY caught up with frontwoman Sarah McLeod to find out more. We bring up a quote she made to HEAVY in October last year where she proclaimed "I shit you not, but it's the best stuff we've ever written", and ask if she still feels that way after the album has had more time to digest. A smile swept across her face before replying with a simple "yeah"."I guess maybe that's why I love it so much," she continued, "because I'm so connected to it. And I just feel like we've got better. I feel like we did a great job in the 90s, and we were happy with those records, but we had 10 years off, and we all went and did different music. We learnt stuff. Ruddy (Stuart, bass) was in all these different bands, and he came back with a whole library of new influences and so did I. And we're like, okay, we're the same people, but we're not really because we've learnt all this stuff. So why don't we bring in the cool shit that we've learned and make something different, but paying homage to who we were. And that's where we're at. And I think it's been really good for us. And I love it."In the full interview, Sarah expressed her excitement about the album, which has seen the release of six singles over the past 18 months. She highlighted her favourite track, Gangbusters, and explained the strategic decision to hold back some songs to build anticipation. She emphasized that while there is no external pressure, she feels a personal drive to deliver quality music, reflecting the band's evolution and commitment to their craft.Sarah shared insights into her songwriting process, noting a shift towards creating cohesive narratives rather than standalone lyrics. She discussed the challenges of balancing her solo work with that of The Superjesus, particularly in terms of lyrical content and audience resonance. The conversation also touched on the creative process, where Sarah likened songwriting to an alchemical journey that requires refinement to achieve simplicity. She said she believes that effective songs often stem from straightforward lyrics that engage audiences, a principle she strives to uphold in her work. We discussed the band's upcoming tour and what to expect musically, as well as the opportunity for local band's to open in each city and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Interview by Kris PetersAustralian music was a melting pot of talent in the early 90s with bands like Tumbleweed, Regurgitator, Spiderbait, Magic Dirt and the Superjesus planting the initial seeds that would see them still knocking crowds dead to this day - some 30 years later.Punk upstarts the Hard-Ons were also a major player in the thriving scene, but it is an offshoot of that band - formed after internal bickering led to one of the band's many breakups - called Nunchukka Superfly who made perhaps the biggest impact of them all despite never releasing an album and disbanding after a few short years.In that time Nunchukka Superfly - Ray Ahn and Peter Black from Hard-Ons, Massappeal drummer Peter Allen and former Harpoon frontman and future Drones co-founder (and now JJ McCann Transmission main man) James McCann - earnt a fierce reputation as a must see live band, managing to record an albums worth of material that was seemingly lost to the ether and never to be seen or heard again.Until now.The masters of that album found their way back into the hands of McCann, who dutifully passed them along to the rest of the band, ensuring the collection of now timeless punk rock tunes would finally see the light of day.The band released Nunchukka Superfly 95 earlier this year and announced a run of shows in celebration, proving there's still life in the legs and lungs of this Australian musical enigma. And where there's life, there's hope, as evidenced by the fact Blackie and James reached out to us here at HEAVY to talk about the past, present and future of Nunchukka Superfly.We start with the album and ask how it felt to finally release it after so many years."I guess you could call it strange," Blackie mused, "but at the same time it felt really good, and I think we can thank James for that because I didn't even have a copy of the recordings. I forgot what it was like even. But James got in touch about a year and a half ago and said mate, have you heard that fucken thing we did all those many moons ago? It's really ferocious. We should release it and I remember thinking yeah, yeah, maybe one day. He sent me a copy, and I was like holy fuck he's right. This is mad.""I had it on cassette for years," James added. "And I think we all had a cassette copy initially, but I wore that out eventually. In Sydney Jason, who recorded it, was working across the road from where I lived at the Hopeton Hotel on the weekends, and he said I have that DAT tape of that Nunchukka Superfly recording, do you want a copy? I said yes, and I sat on that for years because I didn't have a DAT player (laughs). I had access to this old 90s DAT player about ten years ago at a friend's studio, so we plugged in the old player and put the cassette in and BAM, there it was loud and clear, and somehow I had stored it away well enough to obviously have not lost it. That was the start, then I got it digitized and sent it to Blackie and Ray."In the full interview, Blackie and James talk more about the release of their debut album, Nunchucka Superfly 95, after many years, and the upcoming reunion shows. They shared their memories of the band's formation, their last show in 1996, and their chemistry during the first jam session, expressing excitement about the reunion and the potential for future collaborations.Blackie and James also discussed the process of obtaining and digitizing the original recording of their debut album, emphasizing that no alterations were made to the original recording. They reflected on the quality of the music and the positive reactions on social media and strong initial sales, including overseas interest, and expressed pride and gratitude for the continued interest in their music after so many years.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Interview by Kris PetersEskimo Joe are in the rare and elite class of Australian bands who could probably never make another album again, but still draw people to their shows based solely on the quality of material they have released thus far.Two songs in particular - Love Is A Drug and Black Fingernails, Red Wine - have etched Eskimo Joe into Australian music folklore, but their 27-year journey has seen many more highlights and relatable songs.The band built their reputation playing festivals such as Big Day Out and Splendour In The Grass, but of late have been playing nostalgia-type festivals featuring classic bands from the past few decades that are still going strong.The most recent of which was Lookout Festival which featured Incubus, Live, Eskimo Joe, The Superjesus and Birds Of Tokyo. It was a series of concerts that drew consistently high numbers and reaffirmed Eskimo Joe's standing amongst the country's elite live bands, despite having not released a full album since Wastelands in 2013.With the release of their first single since 99 Ways in 2021 - a nostalgic number called The First Time - Eskimo Joe are embarking on a new chapter of their careers and learning to embrace the very fabric of music that excited them nearly three decades ago.HEAVY caught up with bass guitar/keyboards/vocals Kav Temperley to find out more."This is certainly the first song we've put out post-COVID where we've actually played some shows in front of people and then recorded a song, which is a very different feeling," he said. "I think we've hit a real purple patch. Since we saw you at Sandstone Point, all of the shows that we have been playing have been these big, almost nostalgia fests. We've noticed that the gigs are filled with people who are in their early 20s to their 60s and 70s. They are people who would have been 5 or 6 when Black Fingernails, Red Wine first came out, and people who would have discovered us when we first put out Sweater. We've kind of hit this really interesting place where we're not cool or uncool anymore, we just occupy this Eskimo Joe shaped hole in the music industry, which is great. Putting out a new song has been wicked. Definitely the best pickup we've had at radio since 2010 I guess, but everyone is receiving it really well."In the full interview, Kav talks more about The First Time and its sonic direction, the film clip that traces the history of the band over the last 20-odd years, if it is a stand-alone track or part of something bigger, the shows with Live and Incubus, some things they have learnt about themselves and their bandmates over 20 plus years of touring, the just started National Acoustic Theatre Tour and what to expect, playing the more intimate shows and the higher level of fan interaction, future plans and more.

Interview by Kris PetersSince their inception in 1991 US rock outfit Incubus have defied the laws and conventions of music by shading outside the lines and creating their own brand of sonic retribution.Their music was different and experimental, while still maintaining a rock-infused underbelly that provided a meaty backbone that stood tall through a myriad of musical disparities that combined to create the perfect sonic storm.With three consecutive albums that pushed the envelope further than ever before S.C.I.E.N.C.E. (1997), Make Yourself (1999) and Morning View (2001), Incubus and their music quickly gained global attention and transformed what was once a personal odyssey into more of a worldwide phenomenon.Such is the band's enduring legacy, they have re-recorded Morning View and will release it on May 10 with the title Morning View XXIII, but first they are making a long overdue return to Australia for a run of shows with fellow rockers Live this April.As well as five national co-headlining shows with Live, Incubus will also appear at the inaugural Lookout Festival, an outdoor event on some of the country's most iconic stages alongside Live, Birds Of Tokyo, Eskimo Joe and The Superjesus.HEAVY was fortunate enough to speak with Incubus frontman Brandon Boyd on the eve of the tour."I think this is probably the most extensive tour of Australia we will have done," he smiled. "I could be wrong about that, but I don't remember having played… I think it's eight or nine shows by itself, just in Australia. I'm excited."This will be Incubus' first trip to Australia since 2018, so we cheekily ask Boyd why the band has neglected us for so long."(laughs) Something happened in the world sometime after 2019 that made it so travelling was really tough," he replied. "I don't remember exactly what it was, but something happened that kept us off aeroplanes and stuff (laughs). We're sorry it's taken us so long, but we're really excited to make our way back, and we're thrilled to be able to do these shows with the band Live as well."On the subject of Live, we ask why they were chosen to be touring partners with Incubus on this run."This is something that honestly would not have occurred to me," he measured, "to put our bands together to do this. It came through other channels to potentially pair us up to tour, but when we heard about it being a possibility, all of us were very enthusiastic about the idea because Live was one of those bands when I was growing up that just had some bangers. They've got some tracks that are just killer, and I've actually never seen them play live, so it's pretty awesome to go on tour with a band that you enjoy, but you've never had the pleasure of seeing live. So this will be my introduction to them formally."In the full interview we discuss the tour in greater detail, Lookout Festival and playing with Australian bands, what has changed in the 6 years since Incubus last toured Australia, the different excitement he gets from playing outdoor festivals compared to indoor arenas, re-recording Morning View, how well the music from that album has stood the test of time, if and how crowds respond differently to the songs from that album two decades later and more.

ABOUT AVALANCHE:Avalanche is a 4 piece hard rock band from Western Sydney, Australia playing short, fast & loud, no-bull Aussie rock 'n roll for a new generation and attracting massive attention on a global scale.The band formed in an old steel factory in 2018 where they used to rehearse. They've since made a name for themselves as part of the vanguard of new Australian rock, with their tenacious work ethic, frenzied touring schedule, and a raucous, high-energy live shows, which routinely leave their audiences covered in blood, sweat, and beers.They've supported major US bands Buckcherry, Fozzy, and The Iron Maidens at sold-out shows, as well as Australian legends, Palace Of The King, Kingswood, Dead City Ruins, The Southern River Band, Child & The Poor, and have dates with Rose Tattoo coming up in 2024. The band have set their sights overseas, having headlined their first international tour and rock festival; ROCKTOBER FEST in Nouméa, New Caledonia in October 2022 to some of their most riotous crowds yet and touring Japan in March 2024, with more overseas tours in the works... Avalanche are the winners of Passport To Airlie 2023, Australia's largest live original band competition at Airlie Beach Festival of Music where they shared the stage with Ian Moss, Freznal Rhomb, Dragon, The Superjesus, Ross Wilson , and more, and as a result, they will be returning in 2024 Nov 7-10 with a headlining slot,Since then, they've joined the country's foremost booking agency, Premier Artists, part of the Mushroom Group, as their exclusive booking agent for Australia, joining the ranks of Australia's highest profile artists (Airbourne, The Angels, The Screaming Jets, Jimmy Barnes...) as well as a management deal with Big Apachee that already sees the band transcending to new heights.Avalanche continues to play to packed audiences with rave reviews and sold-out shows at some of Australia's most iconic venues including festivals. Over the years, the band became mainstays at Sydney's most loved heavy music venue; Frankie's Pizza By The Slice, playing their infamous birthday bash on the venue's 8th birthday and recording the music video for 'Bottle Of Sin' there just before the venue was demolished for a train station. Always showing no signs of slowing down, they've gone from major support slot to festival slots, even undertaking a month-long residency at Sydney's best alternative music pub The Duke Of Enmore, and playing at halftime at Pro Wrestling Australia's sold-out show at Liberty Hall.Known for their high production music videos, the band has worked with HAUS Party [The Amity Affliction, Peking Duk, Guy Sebastion, North Lane] on their first music video, and 5 videos later, they've amassed a couple hundred thousand views on YouTube & social media, similar figures on Spotify, and a few thousand CD's sold worldwide. Recently, one of Australia's most loved TV programs Blokesworld has been blasting Avalanche's music on TVs across Australia on Channel 7 and 7Mate, with their music videos added to rotation on 1700 & The Hard Rock Show on Channel C31 Melbourne and 44 Adelaide.Their Latest single 'Hell's Getting Hotter With You' has seen major coverage globally including Classic Rock & Rock Hard in Germany, by Igor Miranda (Journalist from Rolling Stone Brazil, Whiplash.Net, Guitarload magazine & more), and on major editorial and algorithmic playlists on Spotify, and Apple...

Interview by Kris PetersOne thing that has always typified Australian music is the internal support system encouraged by those within it.Band members often share their talents amongst two, three, or sometimes four other bands, with his fellow bandmates offering words of encouragement and respect rather than bemoan the fact their guitarist, or their drummer is not exclusively a part of their musical gang for want of a better word.Of course, there are always exceptions to the rule, but as a whole Australian music is made up of and populated by like-minded musicians who just want to play.Aussie rock outfit Palace Of The King is no exception, sharing its members with other bands such as Jon Stevens, The Screaming Jets and The Superjesus, an outside collective that adds nothing but starch to the Kings when all return to the fold.The proof of that is in the band's latest single Tear It Down, a high-energy rock track done only as Australian rockers can. The song is lifted from Palace Of The King's upcoming album Friends In Low Places, which will be released via Reckless Records next month.HEAVY sat down recently with vocalist Tim Henwood to find out more. We start by asking how Tear It Down has been received."It's been great," he beamed. "Because it's quite a full-on written song. I don't know if you've noticed, but we've been putting a new song out pretty much every eight weeks for months now, and I've been trying to mix it up. The last one was a bit more of a cruisy Americana, Black Crowes kind of thing and this one's much more fast, risky, kind of 70s-tinged Queens Of The Stone Age type of thing. I've been trying new stuff, so every time I put a new post up saying here's a new single fans of the band have piped up and said 'I wasn't expecting this', so I gave them a bit of a banger.In the full interview, Tim talks more about Tear It Down and what the song is about, how it sonically represents the new album, the overall direction of Friends In Low Places, producing and recording his own music and the pros and cons involved, a brief history of the band, the album launch tour and more.

Interview by Kyra-Jade CoombsThe Superjesus are Aussie icons. Not only are they great musicians, but they are down to earth and the kind of people you could sit with for hours and have amazing conversations with.HEAVY took the chance to have a yarn with long time bass player Stuart Rudd, ‘Ruddy', about their upcoming monster Australian tour for new single ‘Lights Out'. It's nice to have a chat with someone who has been in the music industry for so long but still has a burning passion and pure love for what they do. It was written across his face as it lit up talking about his band, and I think an amazing thing to have. It's not often you hear muso's saying that ‘Getting outon the road is a nice break'. That's pure love I tell ya..As far as surprises on tours go, Ruddy said there will be a few oldies played from their long spanning repertoire along with new tracks recorded recently.By the sounds of it Superjesus have been busy recording and are flirting with the idea of releasing an album sooner than later, so keep your ears peeled for that.We had a trip down memory lane and spoke up the longevity of the friendship, (working and otherwise), with vocalist Sarah McLeod. Having such a connection with someone that you can both just look at each other in the midst of playing a song and have that smile/ nod combo and know exactly what they're thinking. Not many people have this, nor experience it in their lifetime and this type of connection is translated through into their music. It's bloody magic and I have the utmost respect for them.There's a lot more Easter eggs sprinkled into this interview so have a good listen and enjoy. The ‘Lights Out' tour has 15 stops and I dare say one will be near you, go and catch a show…. I know I am.

In this episode of the Triple M Gig Review, we delve into the mesmerizing night that saw You Am I command the stage at Enmore Theatre, recreating The Who's timeless 'Tommy' album.

With the audience comfortably seated and an intentional intermission dividing the 'Tommy' album's sides A & B, it was clear this wasn't just another concert. Enter the dazzling Hayley Mary of the Jezabels and Sarah McLeod from Superjesus, whose guest appearances were nothing short of electric. Their voices, both distinct and powerful, intertwined flawlessly with You Am I's iconic rock rhythms, demonstrating the collective's profound appreciation for The Who's musical genius. As the chords resonated, Tim Rogers, the charismatic frontman of You Am I, sprinkled the evening with tales - from detailed insights into Tommy's evocative storyline to cheeky and heartfelt anecdotes about his bandmates and the journey they've shared. He reserved special praise for Hayley and Sarah, highlighting their transformative impact on this rock opera's rendition.

Join Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musicians. The Superjesus return with brand new single “Lights Out”.  The driving, melodic track - written by Sarah McLeod and Stuart Rudd and produced by drummer Murray Sheridan - provides the perfect backdrop for McLeod's distinctive vocal. Sarah McLeod said of the track, “The Superjesus would like to dedicate this song to Rita Riman.  Rita was a longtime fan - a member of the band's very first fan club in the early 90's.  A group of music lovers met through our message board called ‘Static'… before My Space was invented… this group became very familiar to us and attended all our shows for the next couple of decades.  Rita struggled with mental health issues for many years but her saving grace was always music.  Sadly a couple of years ago we lost her, and it sent shock waves through all of us.  So many people struggle with mental health issues in silence, we need to remember to ask each other if we're ok.  This song is for Rita and the fans who grew up with us.”Since bursting out of Adelaide in the mid-'90s, The Superjesus have had nine Top 50 hits, two Top 10 albums, placed five songs in Triple J's Hottest 100, won three ARIA Awards, and been inducted into the South Australian Music Hall of Fame.Includes Songs:The SuperJesus - Lights outThe SuperJesus - Down AgainSarah McLeod -  Gutter QueenThe SuperJesus - Money (We're Only In It For Love)What have The SuperJesus been up to lately … let's find out!If this story raises any concerns for you please talk to someone:LifeLine:                13 11 14Beyond Blue:     1300 224 636Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit: ThatRadioChick.com.au

Interview with Stu Rudd “The Superjesus” from Radio in Motion with Big Sonny by Im Not Famous

Interview by Kyra-Jade CoombsWhat can I say? Sarah McLeod from The Superjesus is nothing but pure delight! Her excitement and joy for music rings through so loudly it's hard to not fall in love with what she's doing. If you are an Aussie and have ever listened to the radio, you will know who The Superjesus are. If you don't, then get out from under the rock you've been living under!Seeing as though this legendary Aussie rock band has been around longer than my very existence, I felt like I was way out of my league having the opportunity to talk to Sarah. Although I must say, any and all nerves were quickly swept away as soon as we started talking.We covered a lot in this interview; welcoming Murray Sheridan and Cam Blokland to The Superjesus family, recording new material in an organic and natural fashion, hitting the road with Dallas Crane and some downright wholesome chat on being true to yourself – no matter what. I took away some really cool and unexpected life lessons from our chat and I genuinely enjoyed every second of this interview, in all my awkward glory.Starting in January 2023, The Superjesus are hitting the road on their Money Tour starting on January 27 in Sydney and finishing up March 3 in Richmond, Victoria. If you are a fan of The Superjesus you really don't want to miss this one. I can't wait to see all this hard work come to life.Keep an eye out next month for the release of their new single Money (We're Only In It For Love) and check out the full audio interview above.

I was reflecting on how important The Superjesus were to the 'scene' in the 90s and then reinventing themselves with an incredibly polished sound after 2000. Gravity, Down Again, Saturation, then later Enough to know and Secret Agent Man. It's so exciting to hear the news they are returning with new music in 2023. Sarah during the pandemic made a huge change in her life and moved to Brisbane - a new start right in the middle of lockdowns (and a week in a quarantine hotel!). These days she's balancing her life of rock n roll with acting, starring in 'Jane Eyre' as it tours around the country. I'm proud to say she's a mate, and always a great chat.

After being delayed since last year due to the dreaded Spicy Cough, Australia's newest – and Aussie bands only – festival Uncaged is finally within sight of the first show in Sydney on April 23.Uncaged features an eclectic collection of bands, covering everything from rock to punk to metal and bringing them all together under one banner to provide a diverse line-up of music that will have something to please everyone.Wolfmother, You Am I, Magic Dirt, The Superjesus, Killing Heidi, Tex Perkins and Shihad head the one day festival which will visit Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne, as well as a host of local bands such as Twelve Foot Ninja, Bodyjar, Tumbleweed, 28 Days, The Hard-Ons and more.Melbourne heavy rock outfit El Colosso are flying the flag for all things rock, with vocalist Matt Cooper taking time out from signing autographs to chat with HEAVY.DISCLAIMER: ENGAGE HUMOUROUS SIDE OF YOUR BRAIN BEFORE CONTINUING. COOPS IS WHAT IS COMMONLY KNOWN AS AN AUSSIE LARRIKAN AND ANYTHING HE SAYS SHOULD BE TAKEN WITH A GRAIN OF SALT OR A TABLESPOON OF SUGAR…After previous late aborted efforts to get the El Colossus train rolling as part of Uncaged the first show is less than seven sleeps away so are the band allowing themselves to get excited or are they still wary that the threat of the big C still looms large over the world? I don't like to be pessimistic but in reality anything could happen…"You know what, you're right,” Coops agreed. “Anything can happen. Let me just tow the corporate line for a while and say it's gonna be incredible and it's gonna be huge and it's about time that we actually started to get out there for festivals. Full credit to Danny Bazzi who has really put his name on the line to organise this. It's chopped and it's changed. COVID has not been kind to the industry to begin with, but I don't really see anyone else in the industry doing what Danny is doing with Silverback and he's actually prepared to take a lot of flak for it. Hats off to him mate, seriously. He's got balls, and what could be more attractive than a man with very big balls?"Another aspect where festival organisers are ahead of the game is their decision to take most of the line-up to each city rather than chop and change the roster depending on location.It shows confidence in the ability and drawing power of individual bands and is something that surely must increase the confidence of localized outfits, knowing the people behind the scenes have faith in their performance."Honestly, we're a pretty confident band to begin with,” Coops replied, tongue firmly planted in cheek. “It's funny. I actually had someone that I work with who had no idea that I play in a band - which is funny considering how much ink I have on my body and all that kind of thing - and she said that she had listened to some of the music and she couldn't understand why we weren't bigger and I could have gone into the whole spiel about the state of the music industry and all that kind of thing but it's actually something that we get a lot. People that take the time to listen to it often come back and say how come you guys aren't doing more stuff? Well, you know, that's the game. The thing that we really do, that we can really... not rest laurels on... but where we get our confidence from, is playing live. We are the best live band in the world, and I don't mind that getting out. If anyone that plays in a band doesn't think that about their own band, then why fucken play live? I know that really we're not the best but I like to think that we are. At least that we're up there (laughs)."In the full interview, Coops goes into greater details on why El Colosso are amongst the best bands in the world (and almost convinces us that they are in the process), what sorts of things a band can take out of playing festivals such as Uncaged, how important home grown festivals are for the future of Australian music, survival tips to make sure you are still standing for the final band, El Colosso's sound and where it comes from, future plans and more.

I was like, let me ask the guys, and then he said do you want to just play Sydney or do you want to do all of them? And I said, is that an option? Of course, we want to do all of them, so it came out of nowhere but Danny has always been a big fan of Molly and what we do, and Danny and I have quite a few musical similarities so we always bonded over that."The lineup of bands covers many genres, with the diversity of music a main feature of Uncaged.We press Cateris on what he thinks Molly & The Krells bring to the festival."For diversity I reckon,” he shrugged “From memory there's not a lot of poppy, punky bands that are on the bill and I think it adds for a little diversity and a modern touch to what's going on in that lineup. Not to say the other bands are old but in terms of what's happening these days there's just a handful of acts. It's good to have a bit of youth and some young bloods on the lineup."In the full interview, Blake talks about the bands he is looking forward to playing with, what the band will take out of performing alongside some heavyweights, where he sees Uncaged heading in the future, tips on lasting the day, what we can expect from their set, whether the band will be playing any new songs, their last single Silver & Gold and the response it received from Rolling Stone, future plans and more.

It's been so long. I wanted to play big time in 2020 but that was off the table, so I'm more than dying to get back on stage."W press further and ask whether he is more excited, nervous, r anxious about getting back out on stage again which brought a smile to Stevenson's face."All of the above,” he laughed. “We've got a new lineup of musicians so we've been doing a lot of practicing in preparation. It's been such a long time since we've been on stage, so definitely nervous, but excited. I'm sure it's going to be great."In the full interview, Rohan discusses the diverse line-up and where I Built The Sky fit in, the importance of homegrown festivals, who he is most looking forward to seeing, tips on how to last the festival without peaking too early, the possibility of new music being played at the shows, upcoming album The Quiet Place Away, future plans and more.

Episode 96- Excited to welcome to the podcast musician Stu Rudd, bass player for one of my favourite Australian rock bands The Superjesus. Stu born in Adelaide South Australia, he played a few instruments and was apart of forming the band in 94. They released their first EP Eight Step Rail in 97 and won 2 ARIA Awards. In 98 the band recorded their first studio album Sumo to rave reviews and toured internationally. It received platinum status and the band won an ARIA award for best rock band.  Next album Jet Age in 2000 also went platinum and had arguably the bands biggest hit "Gravity". Stu along with vocalist Sarah McLeod were inducted into the South Australia music hall of fame. The band continues to record and tour around the world and Stu is also involved with side projects including Crown Jewels. @sturudd @the_superjesus www.thesuperjesus.com "Gravity" Live performed by The Superjesus (Written by Sarah Mcleod)  Warner Music Australia https://tellcraigyourstory.podbean.com https://www.linktr.ee/tellcraigyourstory @tellcraigyourstory Youtube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcCr6P3Ja395SkapnECvOFw?view_as=subscriber #sturudd #stuartrudd #ruddy #thesuperjesus #sarahmcleod #timhenwood #paulberryman #christennet #eightsteprail #sumo #jetage #rockmusic #hellskitchen #adelaide #southaustralia #samusichalloffame #gravity #downagain #nowandthen #kiss #kingofthunder #grinspoon #bigdayout #vanhalen #davidleeroth #daveglesson #baronthehill #thegov #silverchair #thebabyanimals

Australian music is on the rise.With the world around us locked out and international bands no longer on the immediate touring circuit, music fans are being forced to look into our homegrown talent more than ever and the results are showing.Not only are our emerging bands receiving more exposure, but some of our seasoned campaigners are also benefitting from local interest.More recognizable bands like Frenzal Rhomb, Grinspoon and The Superjesus are back on the touring wheel and slaying it with each performance, but other bands from that era – that are just as good but not as much in the media spotlight – are also finding a resurgence in popularity.One of those is Tumbleweed who this year celebrate 30 years in the Australian music industry. It is a milestone shared by the above bands and more, and one which is richly deserved for Tumbleweed who have always maintained a strong presence despite never quite reaching the same heights. Tumbleweed will be touring as part of the Uncaged Festival early next year, joining Magic Dirt, Kingswood, The Getaway Plan, The Superjesus, Tumbleweed, Bodyjar, End Of Fashion, The Hard Ons, The Meanies and Twelve Foot Ninja plus a host of rising bands such as Psycroptic, These Four Walls, Dregg and Lagerstein.Front man Richie Lewis joined HEAVY to discuss Uncaged and 30 years as a rock band."Yeah I am,” he beamed when I mention they must be looking forward to sharing the stage with their mates again – old and new. “We sort of feel like we're arrows that have been pulled back on a bow waiting to be released. That's how we feel. It's a real cool festival. I like how it's diverse. It's got old people like us and some of my great friends like The Hard Ons, The Meanies and Magic Dirt, and it's got a whole bunch of young uns as well which I'm looking forward to. I think that's a great thing about festivals full stop is I'm always surprised by something so I'm looking forward to seeing some of the other stuff as well."With a well balanced line-up of the past, present, and future, it could be easy to see festivals such as Uncaged as something of a changing of the guard, but as Lewis points out is could also be something far more simple."Or an appreciation of rock as a genre,” he smiled. “A celebration of all of it and what we've got in this country at the moment. Most of those bands... The Hard Ons just put out a fantastic album, Meanies are always putting out something. Magic Dirt, us, we're still alive and we're still putting out stuff so I think it's really cool we aren't being caught up in this trap of being something for the latest up and coming thing and being on the cool crew or whatever. They want to spread their wings wide and brought in everything that they like about Australian music."In the full interview, Richie tells us who he is most looking forward to playing with at Uncaged, bringing through the next generation of music, the fact it is a 100% Australian line-up, celebrating 30 years as a band, Tumbleweed's new singles box set which comes out on November 26, their anniversary run of shows and more.

This weekend sees the return of the Airlie Beach Festival Of Music after COVID disrupted the annual event last year.Once more assembling a stellar line-up of bands and musicians – including Brian Cadd, The Angels, Russell Morris and Busby Marou, the festival is a three day weekend of fun, music and good times not to be missed!Another of the leading performers on this years bill is The Superjesus frontwoman Sarah McLeod, performing one of her many solo shows, and the great lady took time out from renovating to chat with HEAVY on the eve of the festival.We start by asking if she has ever had the pleasure of playing at one of the famous Far Northern festivals."The Superjesus played there,” she nodded. “I think it was... well it wasn't last year (laughs). I think it was the last festival they had and it was one of the best shows we've done in ages. I remember it well. The people that run it - this is what makes a good festival. There's a lot of things that go into making a good festival. A good line-up and lots of people coming, making sure that the punters are comfortable, and the bars are in the right places and the toilets, and the suns not setting in their eyes while watching the band... there's so many factors involved, and they seem to think of all those things. And they're really lovely to work with. Everyone is happy and comfortable. No-ones walking around going "this would be great if". You don't hear that at the Airlie Beach festival."In the full interview Sarah runs through what to expect from her show, if she will be playing any Superjesus songs, judging the Battle Of The Bands finals as well and how she will approach it, who she is most looking forward to seeing and why, pacing yourself over a three day festival, future plans for herself and The Superjesus and more.

Turning 30 is a big deal - whether it is your amount of laps around the sun as a person, or whether it is a body of work that was created and still resonates three decades after the fact.While the members of The Screaming Jets personally celebrated lapping the sun a couple of years ago, their debut album All For One this year celebrates that milestone, with the band releasing a special re-recorded version with the current line up to mark the occasion.The 1990s was a Golden era of rock in this country. You had AC/DC, The Poor, The Angels, Baby Animals, Superjesus and more all taking rock music from this side of the world to a global audience, but it was the release from a group of young, brash and rebellious Novocastrians that took the rock world by storm.Here was an album that pushed every conceivable musical boundary and produced singles such as Better and Shine On that would later go down in Australian rock history.With the new release date of October 22 earmarked because of recent COVID related complications, guitarist Jimi Hocking sat down with HEAVY to run us through the life of a classic rock album."It's a different kind of excitement," he replied when asked if waiting to release the new version of an old album compares with the anticipation of putting out an album of new material. "I've been playing these songs a long time - I joined the band in 1993 - and I've been playing these songs for the best part of 28 years. We love the record. The first album release was a cracking release as rock fans will remember, it was a great Australian release in its day and to take on the task of doing it again was a little bit daunting, but I've gotta say we've had lockdowns and the experiences from that during the process of recording this album, so we went about it a very different way. I'm excited because we managed to complete the album and when we got the mixes back from Steve I thought they were every bit as good as the first record and I got really excited when I heard back what we put on tape."With The Screaming Jets known for their love of a good time, particularly on the road, Jimi explains how the initial seeds for this new anniversary edition of All For One were sewn."I'm not really sure," he measured. "It was kind of an organic thing, and to be really honest, one of the main reasons we started having the conversation in the first place wasn't to replace the first album. In actual fact, we don't own that first record now, and if we were gonna go out and promote and play the first album and give it some gas for being 30 years old it seemed like a moot point that we didn't really have a connection to the… we couldn't sell it basically at our merch desk because we didn't own it any more, so that was part of the motive to start the conversation and once we had the conversation we started to think it would be cool - we've added a few solos to the live set over the years and Scotty and I have played in our own idiom as well - so we liked the idea of doing the things we have tweaked up over the last 30 years of playing the record, so it was nice to get that stuff on tape."In the full interview, Jimi talks about the changes made to the songs and why they are there, whether they ad-libbed in the studio or had their fresh parts down already, making the new versions similar to the live takes, hearing All For One for the first time and his thoughts, why he thinks the album still has appeal 30 years later, his departure from the band and subsequent return, some of his favourite memories and more.This interview was recorded prior to the tour being postponed, so any dates mentioned will be misleading. Rescheduled dates will be announced as soon as possible.

In the episode we chat with Australian musician, Sarah McLeod, as she shares the journey with her beautiful dog called Chachi. A story of love, laughter, heartbreak and inspiration, that would lead to the writing and recording of 'Chachi's Theme'. This is their life together.

Que tal nos aprofundarmos no Rock e Metal da Austrália? Essa edição veio para isso. Sabemos que AC/DCé uma unanimidade no Brasil, e no resto do mundo também, mas tem muitas outras bandas legais por lá que merecem ser conhecidas e o programa está aqui para isso. Ainda não chegamos na Oceania, apesar de tocarmos bandas australianas com frequência, então vamos fazer um esforço para a canguruzada escutar a gente. Começamos com a versão australiana de Tomorrow, do Silverchair, lançada antes da versão oficial do Frogstomp - um negócio legal, já que a música foi sucesso mundo todo mas essa versão é praticamente desconhecida. Também nesta edição temos bandas bem legais como o pós-grunge/alternative metal do Sick Puppies, a salada-prog-metal do Twelve Foot Ninja, o metalcore cerebral do Northlane, o rock'n'roll tradicional do Jet e do The Vines, a lenda Midnight Oil com uma música um pouco menos conhecida. Além disso, pela segunda vez, tocamos o Defryme, a banda mais famosa da Austrália que nunca ninguém ouviu falar fora de lá, com a pedrada funk metal Pure Killer e duas bandas também desconhecidas, e bem legais, Ammonia, com seu grunjão 90 e The Superjesus, com seus vocais femininos estilosos e riffs estilo-Helmet. Aproveitem as pedradas, caros fãs de distorção: Tracklist: - Silverchair - Tomorrow (Australian version); - Sick Puppies - You're Going Down; - Twelve Foot Ninja - Collateral; - Northlane - 4D; - Defryme - Pure Killer; - Midnight Oil - Cemetery in My Mind; - Jet & The Bloody Beetroots - My Name is Thunder; - Ammonia- Drugs; - The Superjesus - Down Again;

Sarah McLeod from The Superjesus sits down to talk to HEAVY Mag about The Under The Southern Stars festival and talks about the band working on new material.

Amber catches up with Sarah at the Grace Darling hotel in Collingwood on a typically rainy Melbourne afternoon. Over a glass (or two) of red Sarah recounts her gravitation towards music and guitar, which lead her into a joint record deal in the US and Australia. Her passion for creativity comes from deep within her, which is why she has a sacrificial ritual when releasing (birthing) new music into the world. Sarah admits she's been "cheating" on her guitar recently. She has no idea where this new 'relationship' is going, but like all budding romances, she's excited about where it might lead. Instrumental is created and hosted by Amber Petty - sponsored by Yamaha Music Australia.

Over the years Australia has produced some decent quality bands who have stood against the test of time and filled our minds with memories of a time when life was much simpler and rock music was the mainstream. One of those bands were The Superjesus who are still floating about to this day and frontwoman Sarah McLeod joins us for Episode 21 of Wall of Sound: Up Against The Wall to chat about her new solo venture and the imminent return of her band of brothers who are hitting the road across Australia in 2018. Join podcast host Browny as he heads into the early years of the band and discusses touring back in the day with the likes of Grinspoon, Killing Heidi, Frenzal Rhomb and Jebediah and what the band have planned for the 20th Anniversary of their album Sumo. We also take a look at the American Idiot Musical and who is sharing the role of St Jimmy alongside Phil Jamieson next year + head back in time checking out throwback tracks from Silverchair, 28 Days, Veruca Salt, Happyland and The Living End. #WoSUATW #SarahMcLeod #TheSuperjesus #AustralianBands #Podcast #VerucaSalt #Seether #KillingHeidi #Happyland #Grinspoon #AmericanIdiot #Silverchair #TheLivingEnd #CoreyTaylor #StoneSour #POD #LinkinPark #XEcutioners #UglyKidJoe #WallOfSoundAU

Thanks to the Butcher Shop this week we have the wrap-up of GGG vs Canelo fight, Scotty chucks Steve under a bus, and Steve gets punchy. Music from The Foo Fighters and the Superjesus too.

It's pretty hard to argue with the fact that Sarah McLeod was once described as an "iconic Aussie rock chick". Because, well, she is!As the front woman for The Superjesus, as well as doing her solo music, Sarah has been rocking Australia for almost 20 years!So what four songs will this rocker choose for us today?

  The inaugural Sydney Guitar Festival is almost upon us with a brilliant lineup of local and international guitarists. In the first of two episodes catching up with some of the festival guests we speak to progressive rock wizard, James Norbert Ivanyi, Australian rock royalty - Sarah McLeod of the Superjesus and get all the deets from festival programmer Adrian Leighton. James Norbert Ivanyi has just returned home after after a triumphant European tour promoting his latest EP, Denalavis. James talks through his formative influences, his recording journey, playing epic prog festivals and more. Self imposed exile in New York provided the perfect writing environment for Sarah McLeod's latest solo album, Rocky's Diner. Sarah talks us through writing elaborate demos, recording the album and and simultaneously taking on bass and guitar duties for the subsequent tour in a hard hitting duo with Mick Skelton.   https://www.sydneyguitarfestival.com.au http://www.sarahmcleod.com.au/ https://www.facebook.com/jamesnorbertivanyi/   Guitar Speak Podcast Links Subscribe and find previous episodes at:  iTunes or Stitcher Visit us at www.guitarspeakpodcast.libsyn.com Follow us on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter

The first lady of Aussie rock Sarah McLeod, frontwoman of the legendary Superjesus, joins host Jeremy Dylan to discuss the album that inspired her band's sound - "Siamese Dream" by the Smashing Pumpkins. How did the Pumpkins drummer Jimmy Chamberlin's heroin addiction effect the sessions? What was the song that convinced record execs that Corgan was on the right track? Why was producer Butch Vig the best at handling Corgan's vocals? Why is it physically impossible for Sarah to fire the rest of the Superjesus? Why did the Pumpkins go $250,000 over budget? How has doing this podcast influenced the upcoming new Superjesus album?  My Favorite Album is a podcast unpacking the great works of pop music.
