Naarm/Melbourne-based artist Jess Ball has really impressed me with her latest single, “Nightmare.” It’s a polished-sounding pop track with enough edge to keep things interesting. Perhaps that’s because Jess is more influenced by groundbreaking acts like Cigarettes After Sex and Massive Attack than the latest pop princesses.
Lauren Katulka cannot remember a time when music was not a part of her life. Raised on an eclectic diet of Van Morrison, The Eagles, Cold Chisel, and Barbra Streisand, she remembers saving all her pocket money for weeks so she could buy cassettes featuring her favourite singers. At the tender age of 11 she saw her first live concert when Jimmy Barnes took his Soul Deep tour to Newcastle’s Civic Theatre. There was no looking back.
Today Lauren is a happily married freelance writer living on the New South Wales Central Coast. When she's not obsessing about the latest band, or some old favourite, she loves to roller-skate, experiment with new recipes, play pub trivia, and watch indie films.
