Music Update V3.0

Earlier last month I gave you a quick update on music in 2024. With TV in week-to-week mode, there is way more music than TV right now. That said, next week along recently renewed Industry, All American: Homecoming and Power all conclude. The later two, for their final runs.

Currently airing, Tell Me Lies, Only Murders in the Building, American Sports Story, Bad Monkey, Slow Horses, Reasonable Doubt and Australia's own, Last King of the Cross.

Yes that is a lot!

But here is an update on Flashing off the Record's big new series, the Friday Flash(back).

Since early August, Grinspoon have had the spotlight shined on their enormous career. Foster the People were back with a new record, while The Smashing Pumpkins also gave us a new record.

This month has all been about Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Missy Higgins, and lastly Snow Patrol. This Friday it's time for pop, with Nelly Furtado on her seventh record. Bringing SG Lewis, Tove Lo and Australian own, Dom Dolla along for the ride!

And finally Australian music festivals are really on struggle street. The lacklustre line up for Listen Out, only had one really exciting artist on this year's line up. Tyla. Now the week of the festival launching, she is out.

Will Australian music festivals ever bounce back? I am starting to think no. Instead we get Kylie for $500 a ticket or Katy Perry post AFL, post launching an awful new album. Apparently even the AFL has asked she stay in her lane with Roar, Firework and Teenage Dream. Oh boy. So in tribute to that last rant, her are some hump day tunes. Later!
