If you've been listening to this podcast over the last year and a half, then you'd probably be aware of how much I love to shine a light on artists from Adelaide.
Maybe it's my biased nature due to being from Adelaide, or maybe there's something in the water there, but whatever the case, I reckon one Adelaide act you need to hear right now is none other than Kurralta Park.
Named for the Adelaide suburb of the same name, Kurralta Park are an impressive mix of indie-rock and emo that is wholly unique in the way that it captures emotion and filters it through a lens of true sincerity in how the music is crafted and performed.
Initially beginning as a solo project for Bindi McCallum, Kurralta Park has since expanded into a three-piece, and just a matter of days ago, they released their debut album, Powell Place.
If you're someone who enjoys music with raw power, honest songwriting, and an impassioned delivery, then I think you need to find yourself listening to Kurralta Park right away.
This week, I was lucky enough to have a brief chat with Bindi about the project's launch and its journey to now.
Anyway, have a listen to Kurralta Park's Powell Place, have a listen to our chat, and I’ll see you at the end of the episode for some general housekeeping.
