A podcast about a band in progress - which involves less sex, drugs, and rock n roll than our preteen selves imagined. Dan and Tony chat weekly about the processes of song-writing, instrument-playing, audio-producing, plus the pains of getting a five-piece band together once a week to practice for just like, four hours.

Dan and Tony are two members of the Melbourne-based indie rock band Colouring Cats. Join them as they discuss their lives in and out of the band as it stumbles (hopefully) towards fame, recognition, success.

John &amp; the Inverarities (2008-2010)
In our hay-day we played all over town, sharing the stage with the likes of Jackson Jackson, Peter Combe, Bluejuice, The Panda Band, British India, Sugar Army, The Brow and Goodnight Tiger.

Alas the sensational six-piece couldn't last, and we played our last gig in the same place we played our first - the UWA Tav, in March 2010.

We recorded a few tracks but never released them properly, so here they are for your listening pleasure :)

RIP JATI

Empty Tin is the much anticipated first single release from Nicole Brophy's latest album. With natural onstage charisma, bangin' guitar skills and come-hither-smokey vocals it's not hard to understand why she was kidnapped by Kate Miller Heidke's band for a few years! Lucky for us Nicole is now bottling that "whiskey soaked" voice into some darn tasty brew that deserves to be heard and shared.

This catchy as hell single drives along with vintage guitar sounds and cheeky 60‘s backing vocals as it lays down the hard truth that comes from pure frustration. Empty Tin is a single that speaks to all that crave so much more from life...and love.

Nicole Brophy has a voice and style compared to the likes of PJ Harvey, Lucinda Williams & La Roux. ​Stylistically it fits somewhere between gritty rock, alt-country hoedowns and moody, bluesy numbers brought together by a raw charismatic rockin’ earthy voice and boundless energy. She has an undeniable presence on stage always moving, engaging the crowd, playing acoustic or electric guitar and just driving her passion into her songs.
Growing up on the South Coast of NSW and travelling across Australia and overseas Nicole has performed to thousands at some of Australia's biggest music festivals as front woman of her previous band Dirty Lucy or as guitarist/backing vocalist in the Kate Miller-Heidke touring band.
In previous band Dirty Lucy, their highly acclaimed debut album Dark Green was released in 2003 to rave reviews and were invited to perform at SXSW & Shepherds Bush Empire in London. The follow up album Music, People Cities, Lights & Darkness was released in 2006 while touring relentlessly to every corner of the country for over 4 years solid.

Nicole is currently completing the finishing touches on her latest album recorded in a farmhouse in the Southern Highlands of NSW co-produced by Syd Green.

"Nicole Brophy has a voice possessing everything that is good about country singing, with the grunt and raunch of the great female rock tradition thrown in for good measure” Rolling Stone

"Nicole has a voice that fits somewhere between Ricki Lee Jones, La Roux & Beth Orton. Her Alannah Myles-style whiskey molasses voice simultaneously welcomes a crowd with a bear hug and slaps a shot in front of them to signal the start of an adventure". Radar
