Broken But It's Working

Broken But It’s Working (feat. illuminati hotties)

Original music creator from the South West of Western Australia. My influences range from the prog, psychedelic and progressive blues of the late sixties and seventies through 90s indie rock and shoegaze to modern 'space rock' and more experimental forms.

'He's A Lad' is the third single to drop from the upcoming EP, 'Soft', premiered on triple j drive with Tyrone and Abby. The energetic and rapid-fire lyrically vulnerable track is produced by Andy Lawson (The Buoys, Death By Denim, Tired Lion). It is written about toxic masculinity that stems from a place of insecurity.


'He's A Lad' follows previous EP singles, the confident and defiant lead track 'Let It Out', officially added to triple j and most played track for several weeks, and the vulnerable letter 'I Still Adore'. The band have just wrapped up their most extensive headline international tour  'Let It Out', covering sold out shows in Australia, Europe and UK and have just been announced to perform at BIGSOUND 2024.

The EP 'Soft' – Noah Dillon's third, following 2019's 'Everything Melts' and his 2021 breakthrough 'Don't Change for the World (Like It's Changing Me)' –  is a straightforward and succinct title, especially in contrast to the woven metaphor of his two previous titles.

Garnering over 5.3 million global streams of his music, Noah Dillon's career has continued to soar. Marked by the release of his debut album 'Kill The Dove', extensive tours and festival appearances, he has shared the stage with artists such as Stella Donnelly, San Cisco, Holy Holy and Teenage Dads and appeared at Music Matters in Singapore, Splendour in the Grass and BIGSOUND.


With Noah Dillon's multi-faceted approach, forthright lyricism and seemingly-endless energy, Noah Dillon has once again made himself one to watch in the Australian music scene for 2024. With all that said: what's the key message Noah Dillon is trying to convey with 'Soft'?


“Live your life... to live your life well means to experience loss and to experience sadness, because you can't just have happiness that lasts forever. Things change, things move, people die – and that's OK. You gotta love it while it's happening and live your life well. That's what I want people to really take away from this EP: through sadness, grief and hard times, you're going to be OK," Noah Dillon shares.
