These Are A Few Of My Favourite Things: MUSIC

If anyone knows me in the slightest, they’ll be able to tell you that I love a good dance and sing along. I probably say ‘OMG I love this song,’ about 50 times a day, so when it comes to music… it’s kind of a big deal. Along with having just voted for Triple J Hottest 100, I thought now would be a good time to share some of my favourite tunes from 2015! (Note: They’re not all from this year, in fact I’m a bit of a sucker for being 2 years behind the times, but it doesn’t stop them from being AMAZING songs).

MUSIC FESTIVALS

Future Music Festival

You can read about my experience here. The absolute highlight for me was seeing Die Antwood and Nero. They absolutely KILLED it!

Ed Sheeran

The ginger man himself. I may or may not have cried when I went and saw him in April. He absolutely rocked it. There’s not many people that could perform just with an acoustic guitar in front of thousands of people!

Alt-J & Asgeir

What a combo! Seeing Asgeir had been a dream of mine since having to sell my tickets to see him last year. And when I found out he was supporting Alt J… I grabbed two friends and bought tickets ASAP!

SAFIA

The best $15 I’ve ever spent and the cheapest I’ll probably ever see them again. Held at our local uni bar, I was blown away by the quality and talent of the band. Definitely going places!

Fox and the Hound

The singer may only be a 7 but their music is an 11! I’ve probably listened to their EP waaaaaaay too many times. Please hurry up and release an album!

Mumford & Sons Festival

Such good value for money! A one day mini festival in the Domain. Featuring the beautiful Meg Mac, Jake Bugg and plenty of others we danced through the rain and had an absolute blast!
