Warwick and Tina continue to explore their acoustic genre bending style, writing new music drawn from tales and experiences on the road & are set to release a new EP in March 2022 with their 5th independently released album on the way....
‘listening to Fullerton's warm, breathy voice is like being dipped in melted dark chocolate, Hargreaves' blues guitar is mesmerising, he plays with fluid energy, his husky voice complements hers... a soothing, sonic pleasure.’

Ben Lee is fun! Ask him, he’ll tell you. It’s even in the title of his album “I’m Fun!” Makes sense at first glance; Lee has crafted some of the catchiest tunes in Australian pop history, but listening to the album, you get the sense this isn’t the kind of ‘fun’ Lee is talking about.

‘I’m Fun!’ finds Ben in reflective mode aged 43, addressing opinions of him that have lingered since his career began at age 13 with the band Noise Addict, but also consciously moving the goalposts for this next chapter of his long and fabled career.

In his 30-year music career, Ben Lee has been prolific and unpredictable. There have been chart hits (Cigarettes Will Kill You, Gamble Everything For Love, We're All in This Together and Catch My Disease – "That one's put food on the table more than a few times,” he says). An instrumental album inspired by the use of psychoactive drugs (Ayahuasca: Welcome to the Work). An album for kids (Ben Lee Sings Songs About Islam For The Whole Family).

After years as an indie artist (including for his biggest album, Awake is the New Asleep), Ben has signed an international deal with Warner to release I'm Fun! – exactly the way he made it.

‘I'm Fun!’ features songs about surviving lockdown (of Parents Get High he says, "There's something terrifying and exciting for kids knowing their parents are still exploring what consciousness means"), celebrating being different, and embracing positivity with first single ‘Born for This Bullshit’.
