Review: Meadow Festival 2021 delivers three glorious days of revelry and fun Image by Tom Parker We went along to Meadow 2021 and this is what went down. Comparisons can be enlightening but they can also be fickle, misdirecting attention and undermining achievements. When I departed Meadow Festival on its last day, the reflections came teeming in and the judgements accumulated. There will always be noise – prior festival experiences thwarting novelty; friends’ opinions clouding p...

It’s a Friday night in Bushwick, Brooklyn, and I’m here to see a show by the El Paso-based rock band Le Butcherettes. I’m not sure if I belong – I have no hair left to speak of, none of it dyed a bright color. And I’m pretty sure I’m the only guy here who fondly remembers catching Jethro Tull in Boston in 1970 on one of the band’s first U.S. tours. But I do know that seeing a young band on the way up is just as cool now as seeing Tull, Roxy Music, Patti Smith or Elvis Cost...

After the false start that was 2020, Montaigne will finally get her chance to represent Australia at Eurovision with this sparkling anthem. As is the way when writing a song to be enjoyed by those of many languages and territories, Technicolour centres around a wordless hook, Backstreet-style vamping synth beats, and a repetitive one-word chorus. Of course, as is basically mandatory in Eurovision circles, there is a show-stopping climatic moment designed for applause, built to soar into the cos...
