Muse – Sounds of Oz

Naarm/Melbourne-based artist Jacob Fitzgerald serves up a slice of classic rock with his bold new single “Muse”. This is an irresistible track with a killer bass line and plenty of swagger.

“Essentially, there are times where I’m writing about love/lust, but I’m not actively in love or possessing a similar feeling. In those situations, I found I naturally gravitate to basing the subject around this one particular person,” Jacob explained. “To be honest, I don’t even really know her, but she somehow is tattooed into my subconscious and is someone I can draw inspiration from EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I dunno, she just has the ‘thing’.”

A track this energetic is going to only get better in the live arena, so Jacob and his band are heading on tour. Catch them supporting Selfish Sons at the following shows:

6 August 2022 – Stay Gold, Naarm/Melbourne
12 August 2022 – The Zoo, Meeanjin/Brisbane
13 August 2022 – Hotel Carrington, Meeanjin/Brisbane

Cairns indie-pop songstress Amber Farnan has won me over with her sweet new single “Muse.” It’s a dreamy romantic track, the sort of song Amber could never have imagined writing when she began creating music.

“Twelve-year-old Amber promised herself that she would never write a love song. Nineteen-year-old Amber finally caved,” she admitted.”’Muse’ was written around the notion of being inspired by someone, with them ultimately being your source of inspiration towards creativity as an artist. Whether its poetry, art, theatre or dance, both modern and historic art forms utilise muses as their inspiration.

“I would like for listeners to be able to relate to the song in some way, whether that be through shared experience or through hopes and dreams. I think that ‘Muse’ has a universal feeling of relatability and no matter who you are, I am damn sure you have dreamed about someone falling in love with you before.”

Amber will launch the single and its music video at The Tanks in Cairns on March 4. Click here for tickets.
