A different take on The Knowles sisters

ALL THE SINGLE LADIES – start queuing up for Australia’s only John Williamson! (although I do somewhat suspect he’s somewhat spoken for)

John Williamson with The Pigs

And on a completely separate note, we present you Solange Knowles’ take of The Dirty ProjectorsStillness Is The Move.

Paul Dempsey live at The Troubadour and all around the country

ARIA and J Award nominated Paul Dempsey (or P Diddy as I now affectionately call him – not to his face though, he might not like it and he’s much taller than me. I hope he doesn’t read this post) recently performed an exclusive gig for triple j at The Troubadour in Brissy with one of my new fav bands Kid Sam.

Unfortunately I wasn’t at this special show and when I saw this performance of  Ramona Was A Waitress I wished I was even more!

Paul just finished a national tour but it seems he just can’t get enough of life on the road so he’s off again like a travelling wilbury. This time he’s a one man band, performing songs from Everything Is True solo stylz. Maybe it will be like this?

Or maybe not.

Erika Heynatz’s new single release and MySpace

You probably read in the Sunday Papers that the gorgeous Erika is releasing her first single in February next year with an album out in 2010!

You can join Erika on her journey writing, making, and releasing an album for the first time by joining her on MySpace (www.myspace.com/erikaheynatz) and reading her funny and insightful view of how it all works… starting with her first story and video up now, which incidentally features a whole lot of Erika’s new tunes!

Robbie Williams lands in Oz!

Today I got within inches of the man himself, Robbie Williams at his press conference held in Sydney in the lead up to his intimate Metro gig tonight and his ARIA performance tomorrow night

Robbie Williams in Sydney He said he was feeling great, had lovely things to say about Australia and Australians and he is looking forward to both performances.

Of moving to Australia he said it’s on the cards because it’s one of those places that feels like home. On getting married he said yes and babies he’s coming around to the idea and had names picked out. It was agreed on Sunny or Sonny, depending if it was a boy or girl but Snowy was voted in a consensus by the journos. When asked about reforming with Take That he said he was happy they’d buried the hatchet and performing together with them recently was a great feeling like it was when they first got together, to go further than that it’d be about getting right thing happening.

In usual Robbie style he turned the questions to the journos and found out a few pet names and threw a few relationship questions back at them.

Rob is here to promote his album #1 album Reality Killed The Video Star. This afternoon at 4pm tune in to Hamish & Andy’s drive program for an interview and I’m sure a laugh. He’ll be on A Current Affair tomorrow night pre-ARIAs and of course the Channel 9 ARIA presentation and red carpet. On Friday he’ll be joining Kyle and Jackie O for a chat.

The hot seat: Norah Jones on Colbert Report

Nation, she may not have a treadmill at the International Space Station named for her, but she has probably sold enough albums to stretch to the moon and back. The other night, Norah Jones sat down for an interview with Stephen Colbert and she had to field some heavy hitting questions. Like with all her success, why isn’t she living large at the Bellagio with an albino alligator?

Take a watch at how Norah handles that one before she performs Young Blood from her new album The Fall. After many listens of the album, that’s the standout track for me.
