GL Get Me Grooving with “Number One”

It’s only Tuesday but after a busy weekend filled with work I’m feeling those mid-week blues a day early. If there was ever a song to bust me out of my funk, it would be the very funky new single “Number One” from Melbourne duo GL.

This is a pure retro throwback, with shimmery synths and a great melodic hook. Ella Thompson’s voice is sugary sweet and the production from Graeme Pogson is spot on.

GL will launch the single for their hometown fans at the Gasometer Hotel on October 24.

John Butler Trio Take ARIA Album Top Spot

The brand new week sees another Aussie act sitting on top of the ARIA album charts. John Butler Trio have ended the reign of Angus & Julie Stone with the release of their new album April Uprising.

Angus & Julie Stone haven’t slipped too far though. Their latest album Down the Way is in third position, just below Lady Gaga’s The Fame Monster.

It’s disappointing to see that there’s still no local talent in the top 10 singles charts though. With Gabriella Cilmi’s single “On a Mission” slipping three places to 19th spot this week, that’s not likely to change any time soon!
