What significance is the St Andrews Hotel for you and how do you feel about headlining the inaugural Double Trouble Blues Sessions at the St Andrews Hotel?
My band and I held a long term residency at St Andrews Hotel over a 15 year period starting in the mid-90s. The group is called The Souldiggers and we are still going in 2022, but those early days at St Angas provided a venue and audience that allowed us to develop our original music. I’ve since toured with The Souldiggers in the USA, UK & Europe but for many years we would return to St Andrews and do a homecoming season for several weeks. We recorded our first LIVE album there and a DVD! So many good things happened at that venue, not just for us, but many of the groups that played there. We figured there was something in the air, it was always a good vibe.
What are the main influences on your work and how would you describe your own style?
I’ve been hugely influenced by the old-school blues players but I delve into jazz, rock and folk styles too. I’m a songwriter too and I draw upon The Beatles, Tom Waits and JJ Cale plus a few writers you might not have heard of Oliver Wood, David Migden and the wonderful Ani DiFranco. Describing a style is tough to do in words, but basically I try to write meaningful lyrics with interesting music that can be bent, shaped, torn apart and put back together again live on stage. How important is the vibe and energy of the audience in contributing to a satisfying gig?
Performing music for an audience is the entire point of playing the gig. Every musician you ever see on stage has reached that point where they are keen to share their musical ideas with other humans. We get nervous before the big moment because we care about the result. We want the audience to ‘get it’ like we ‘get it’, and when that happens there is an exhilarating rush of energy that everyone feels a part of. It is the most pure form of understanding between humans we know, and it is addictive for all the right reasons. How did the COVID period of lockdown affect you and do you have any clear plans for the future?
For most of my life I have lived pro-actively. With music as my my passion, my business and my livelihood, I would have to conceive each project, set the goals and embark on the course of action by which to achieve them. I lived that way for over 30 years. In early 2020 we were slammed just as hard as anyone else. I’ve had to learn how to live ‘reactively’ in order to survive. I learnt to record music at home, I performed online concerts, I taught via video calls. For all of the difficulty, I remain grateful for living in the part of the world we do and for having the modern tools we have that make so much possible. Thankfully we’re able to get out and play some live gigs now. There is still no substitute for being together. |
“Ciao Neustadt-Glewe – Arrivederci AIRBEAT ONE 2022” was Sunday’s motto after four days of incredible electronic sounds at the Neustadt-Glewe airfield in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. From an audience of 20,000 visitors at the PreOpening to 65,000 who attended Sunday’s epic closing, more than 200,000 fans were in attendance over the four days, traveling from more than 50 countries around the world for the 19th edition of AIRBEAT ONE. After a two-year pandemic enforced hiatus, the festival was a spectacular successful comeback. With more than 300 international DJs across the 6 stages, this year’s festival officially had the largest most musically diverse electronic music lineup in AIRBEAT ONE history, more acts than ever before played to the huge crowds at Neustadt-Glewe, which for an entire weekend was recreated as a spectacular Italian city. The theme of this year’s four-day open-air event was “Italy” and in honor of the theme, four of the six large stages shone thematically in reference to the great mythology of the country that lies south of the Alps.
Electronic music fans from every continent travelled to Mecklenburg-Vorpommern to celebrate AIRBEAT ONE’S 19th birthday, along with many of the world’s greatest living DJs. From Australia to America, from Japan to Mexico, from Norway to South Africa, people travelled on pilgrimage to the grand airfield in Neustadt- Glew to celebrate in peace, and to enjoy a carefree 96 hours of exuberant hedonism, beats, and bass.
The huge showpiece of the festival each year is the enormous MainStage, which never fails to capture the attention of the hundreds of thousands of festival-goers in attendance. The detail invested in the main stage was incredible, as a huge collage of monumental images from this year’s theme country. This year festival-goers danced amongst four main Italian cities, Milan Cathedral, the Coliseum in Rome, the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Rialto Bridge in Venice formed the backdrop of the MainStage, setting the scene for the world’s biggest DJs to play some of the greatest electronic music tracks in the industry. With a width of 160 meters and a height of nearly 50 meters, AIRBEAT ONE remains one of the largest mainstages anywhere in Europe. So much so that AIRBEAT ONE’s MainStage stands at the maximum height available for any festival in Europe due to the size of the machines and equipment available for the construction of all festival stages.
The 30-meter tall Hardstyle Stage was inspired by Roman Gladiators and designed for the first time by the AIRBEAT ONE Festival designers themselves. From this year on, fans of the harder sound of electronic music can look forward to a completely new stage every year to match the festival theme. In 2022, the helmet and swords of ancient Roman warriors were enthroned above the DJ booth. From the Terminal Stage, a huge mask from the Venetian Carnival looked down on visitors in Europe’s largest circus tent.
With the Arena Stage, a completely new techno area celebrated its premiere at the AIRBEAT ONE 2022 Festival. On the first day of the festival, Boris Brejcha took over the scepter with his FCKING Serious Brand and fitted in perfectly with this year’s theme thanks to his iconic Venetian mask. On Friday and Saturday, the Elrow Showcase featured the best acts of the entire techno scene, including Charlotte de Witte, Fisher, and Paul Kalkbrenner. The theme of this stage was Rome Olympics. In keeping with the Italian theme, the guests and music fans in attendance celebrated together with 60 entertainers and confetti, Elrow remains an unparalleled show of fantasy, fantastic music, and fun.
The Second Stage led visitors into a psychedelic parallel world inspired by Leonardo Da Vinci and bright vibrant colours. Together with the Lidl Stage in the Main Camping area, almost all styles of electronic music were represented, played to an ecstatic crowd across a total of six floors, from EDM to trance and progressive, from hardstyle, hardcore, and gabber to techno, minimal, house and psytrance.
With its unique main stage design and one of the most impressive DJ lineups in Europe, AIRBEAT ONE has cemented its place in the top 3 of any festival across the continent, and easily in the top ten coolest festivals in the world. The biggest DJs in the world regularly pay homage to the festival. US Superstar DJ Steve Aoki said: “This is my favourite AIRBEAT ONE show I have ever done.” And Armin Van Buuren enthused, “I love AIRBEAT ONE, it feels like the oldest festival ever.” The exceptional reputation and international standing of the festival is also recognized from the fact that international superstar DJs Kygo and Marshmello performed exclusively in Germany at this year’s 2022 festival.
A total of 37 DJs currently ranked in DJ Mag’s illustrious Top 100 DJ list played at this year’s AIRBEAT ONE. A record that no festival in Germany has ever achieved before. Five of the superstar DJs sent the 30,000 music fans into raptures of excitement during Wednesday’s pre-opening. In addition to Tiesto and Marshmello, the highlights of the first day of the festival included Boris Brejcha, Brennan Heart, Robin Schulz, Timmy Trumpet, Vini Vici, and W&W.
The German festival debut of Norwegian superstar Kygo was spectacular. From „Firestone“ to „Stargazing“ and „Remind Me To Forget“ to „Higher Love“, he certainly showcased all his incredible hit songs, and the crowd reciprocated with huge reactions. The crowd reaction was so loud and passionate, that it felt that the noise could have been heard as far away as Italy. The AIRBEAT ONE festival crowd was honored to be treated to the premiere of Kygo’s new single „Lost Without You“, which was released on Friday in unison with his mesmerizing festival performance.
Charlotte de Witte, Paul Kalkbrenner, Oliver Heldens, Danny Avila, Will Sparks, Alok, Fedde le Grand, Dillon Francis (exclusive German performance), Tchami, Ferry Corsten, and VIZE really encouraged the AIRBEAT crowd until the finale on Day 2. Steve Aoki and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike DJs considered the best in the world by many, played one after another, shaking the airfield to its core, the trio treating the ecstatic crowd to a German exclusive and extremely rare 3 Are Legends festival set.
Saturday deliciously delivered with Claptone, Fisher, Marianna Bo, DJ Snake, Martin Solveig, Afrojack, Don Diablo, Lost Frequencies, and KSHMR, each and all superstar DJs of the highest order. Dutch Superstar and many times voted Number 1 DJ in the World, Armin van Buuren captivated the AIRBEAT ONE crowd, with massive tracks such as „Blah Blah Blah“, „Ping Pong“ to “Repeat After Me”, he played countless festival hits and so much more, even treating the AIRBEAT ONE crowd to the premiere of his new single “Superman”, for the first time live in Germany. Afterward, fireworks lit up the sky, leaving 65,000 fans in open-mouthed awe in front of the MainStage, an incredible festival moment, contained within the 19th edition of a festival with so many unforgettable moments.
More than 200,000 visitors from more than 50 nations across four days were undoubtedly overjoyed to finally be allowed to party carefree at a festival again for the first time in two years. Neustadt-Glewe once again welcomed the world with open arms. The residents celebrated at the airfield together with the guests on Wednesday and Thursday. For years they have been invited by the organizers to the pre-opening and the opening of the festival.
Police, rescue workers, and other authorities involved were on hand with help, advice, and support but in a true expression of festival spirit received happy and respectful cooperation from everybody at the festival.
As the 19th edition of the AIRBEAT ONE Festival closed, not only was the date for the 20th anniversary announced but so was next year’s festival theme. From July 5th to July 9th, 2023, the electronic music world in Neustadt-Glewe will celebrate the “Home Edition”, a theme chosen as the 20th celebration will be celebrated at home surrounded by festival friends. Advance sales for the momentous 20-year festival anniversary will begin this September 3, 2022.

‘Showcasing National Icons Unearthing National Treasures’
BANKS ARCADE
RELEASE NEW SINGLE & VIDEO
‘USED‘
|
|
“I wrote Used with nothing but rage in my heart after spending the day literally doom scrolling for 7 hours straight,” says vocalist Joshua O’Donnell of the new track’s inception. “It’s a million questions about the future, it’s anxiety, it’s an angsty rant, and it screams at you ‘I don’t know if this shit is gonna get better but god I hope it does’. The song dances with the feelings of failure from the perspective of someone who believes they are on the brink of success but can’t stop doubting themselves.”
Armed with a dazzling array of metal, electronica, hip hop and more, Future Lovers is primed to stun new and old Banks Arcade fans alike, while also leaving the metaphorical door wide open for heightened innovation and explosive sonic palettes in the not-too-distant future.
And while all eyes are currently on the future of Banks Arcade, the group’s recent powerhouse showing in the UK at both The Great Escape Festival and Download Festival also further cemented the quartet’s electrifying live presence, dazzling with their energy and no holds barred tunes alongside 400 up and coming artists from around the globe in Brighton for The Great Escape, and taking full flight in Donington for Download amongst the likes of Iron Maiden, Deftones, Megadeth and Sepultura.
Fans can catch Banks Arcade currently on the road with Thornhill, Dayseeker and Gravemind around Australia this July, with the group also set for a mammoth 27-date regional tour supporting In Hearts Wake, alongside RedHook and Pridelands.

The way Sydney R&B artist Anieszka has emerged as a stunning presence in the past year and a half has been nothing short of impressive. Her music, an effortless blend of striking influences and a fresh, contemporary view on the genre; Anieszka has been consistently building a body of work that reflects the sound and culture that has raised her, as well as reflecting the passionate approach she brings to her writing now.
New single ‘Human’ is the latest from Anieszka and the lead single from her forthcoming EP project of the same name. A love letter to the personal facets that make us who we are as individuals and interconnected beings, ‘Human’ is a captivating creation from the young artist, who has already been impressing fans and industry alike with a string of recent releases including ‘Motive’, ‘Tender Without You’ and ‘Choices’
‘Human’ has a dreamlike haze to it, threaded through it we hear Anieszka’s hypnotic vocals and elements of her Mauritian culture in a beautiful way. Working on the music at Offbeat Collective Studios with producer and fellow artist Chelsea Warner, and engineer Diego Raposo on mixing and mastering, Anieszka describes the process and final outcome as one she was fulfilled and excited by.
“I have wanted to incorporate traditional Mauritian elements into my music for years, and when I started writing this one I knew Chelsea Warner had to be part of the creating process. I wanted the ravanne (traditional Mauritian drum) to be at the core of the song, and to almost be a never-ending rhythm, kind of like a heartbeat. We also have the maravanne (also known as a kayamb) which is a traditional percussion instrument, and the triangle. This trio forms the basis for Mauritian Sega music.
I’ve never heard a fluid blend of R&B/Soul with a traditional Mauritian beat, and I wanted to be the first to do it. I’m excited for people to learn more about my culture, and to connect with the song on a pure human level too.”
ANIESZKA
On the track itself, and further to the EP, Anieszka explores the nuances and complexities of the human condition. The pressure we put on ourselves to be at our best form at all times, with little to no room for breathing and alleviation.
“We are imperfect beings, yet we often focus so much on the need to be perfect and something other than who we are. The ways of the world and society often dim the light we have within us. This song speaks to that inner child, and the innocence and hope we all once had. It’s an anthem to step into our light and our power, and to practice self-acceptance, self-love and healing along the way. ‘Can you see through my flaws? I am human but whole’ – we all have flaws, but they don’t make us broken or incomplete, they are simply layers to a whole being.”
ANIESZKA
The road to the HUMAN EP project has already been paved with success and moments of evolution and elevation for Anieszka. She has received praise and placements across national radio through Triple J First Plays and Unearthed premieres, BBC Radio and Rinse FM; while FBi Radio has named Anieszka as ‘Independent Artist of the Week’. Anieszka’s music has courted playlist success with both Spotify and Apple Music, while editorially, she has been featured across titles including Acclaim Mag, RUSSH, Life Without Andy, Pilerats, Purple Sneakers and more.
With over 9000 monthly streams and notable shows at The Vanguard and King St. Carnival to her name, Anieszka is set for another fruitful year of new music and anticipates more new fans getting to know her through this music: reflective of her pure love for the craft.
PRAISE FOR ANIESZKA
“Her powers of sonic healing knows no bounds…”
Life Without Andy
“Another slice from Anieszka that glides into the room and makes it all look so easy.”
Triple J, Declan Byrne
“The Australian/Mauritian singer channels the same cathartic energy as US heavyweights like Summer Walker and SZA, tunneling into the healing properties of low-slung R&B and giving them a rich, Australian twist that sets herself apart.”
Pilerats
“Anieszka dives deep with her lyricism, creating an evocative experience, intertwining our mind and body.”
Purple Sneakers

After a series of rescheduled dates, Californian metalcore outfit Black Veil Brides finally made it to Australia. The second show of the day at the Croxton Bandroom saw the venue full of eager fans.
And the band more than delivered. It was a sledgehammer wall of sound from the opening chugging riff of “Faithless”. This was not a show if you wanted to hear ballads. It was back to back bangers including “Coffin”, “Rebel Love Song”, the crowd-chanting “Wake Up” and their US radio hit “Scarlett Cross” which had the crowd fist pumping.
The synergy between guitarists Jake Pitts and Jinxx was evident with wicked solos, Iron Maiden-ish dual harmonies such as during “All Your Hate” and “Knives and Pens”. Christian Coma on drums maintained the intensity and energy, highlighted in the double-kicking “The Legacy”, all while Lonny Eagleton solidly laying the rhythm backbone on bass. Frontman Andy Brierack’s demonstrated his singing versatility from holding melody to high intensity screaming.
Black Veil Brides finished the night with a deep cut “In the End” that left the crowd wanting more. They delivered tight, highly polished performance evidently forged by developing their craft over a number of years.

Australia, BLACK VEIL BRIDES Australian tour kicks off this week! Tickets for their Australian headline tour are flying out the door. With Adelaide and Melbourne’s 18+ show sold out, the tickets for Melbourne’s all ages show are selling fast and final tickets remaining for Sydney and Brisbane.
BLACK VEIL BRIDES have championed the isolated, the dismissed, and the forgotten since the band’s early inception. That ethos and spirit persists in the fully realized incarnation of the band whose image is the object of devotion and obsession, and whose anthems are sung in unison by an international audience, a diverse legion who refuse to surrender.
In an era when rock music is regularly declared “dead,” BLACK VEIL BRIDES music videos have been viewed over a half a billion times. The band (and its members including vocalist, Andy Biersack, who was named as one of the 100 Greatest Living Rock Stars by Revolver) Instagram and Twitter accounts command close to 10 million followers between them.
BLACK VEIL BRIDES have an impressive stack of awards and accolades under their belt with multiple Kerrang! Awards, Revolver Golden Gods Awards and Alternative Press Music Awards. Vale, the group’s most recent full-length album, went to No. 1 on the US Billboard Top Hard Rock Albums chart.
The band’s tour history reads like a textbook of subcultural mile markers in the modern heavy music scene. An initial hardscrabble headlining outing in 2009 has been followed by multiple mainstage runs on the Vans Warped Tour; tours with Slash, Motley Crue, Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet For My Valentine; the massive Resurrection Tour, co-headlined by new labelmates Asking Alexandria; multiple US festivals, including Rock on the Range and Aftershock; and several appearances at the UK’s acclaimed Download Festival.
With a rightful reverence for the pop cultural icons of the past, the young outfit has nevertheless fashioned their own collective future, with relentless fury. In the hearts and minds of their fans, Black Veil Brides represents an unwillingness to compromise and a resistance to critics (personal and professional), fueled by the same fire as the group’s own heroes, the iconoclasts whose creative output, once dismissed, is now canonized.
