Angus & Julia Stone
After watching the first 6 minutes of the Hollywood blockbuster Australia I wanted to dive head first out of my bedroom window. My window isn’t nearly high enough to kill me on impact, only cause an extreme amount of pain, which at that time was better than watching anymore of that ‘movie’. I needed something authentically Australian to make me smile and Angus & Julia Stone was the first thing I played.
These Australian siblings are a pretty low-key duo but they’re gradually rising and their new single And The Boys is really really good and it’s got a great video to go with it.
The whole album is delicate and peaceful and ideal for any train journey or sleep session – not that it’s boring, not at all – just very mellow.
Their album, A Book Like This, is well worth a closer inspection and here are two tracks from it.
Angus & Julia Stone – Bella – 
Angus & Julia Stone – Here We Go Again –

I saw A&J on Friday night live and they are supremely talented, their music just as thought evoking as their branding – love them. Australia: agreed. LJ
Still haven’t seen them live yet — absolutely have to next time they come to London!
