COMING UP ON THE SHOW TODAY FROM 2-4PM:
Cairns FM89.1 Radio All Aussie Music on Cairns FM 89.1

🎸 EDDIE SKIBA A powerhouse of indie rock from Cairns, Eddie Skiba crafts hook-laden anthems that blend thoughtful lyrics with driving melodies. With influences ranging from Midnight Oil to Coldplay, his latest album Alternate Reality is a ten-track journey through light and shade. SUPPORTING YOU AM I TONIGHT AT TANKS ARTS CENTRE. https://www.facebook.com/events/1003386118584872/

⚡ ARABELLA AND THE HEIST This Melbourne-based femme-punk four-piece is pure chaos—in the best way. Their latest single Ruckus is a riotous blend of Moby, Led Zeppelin, and early-2000s nostalgia, described by frontwoman Holly Arabella as “an unapologetic party track.” Their live shows are wild, their sound is infectious, and their energy is absolutely electric.

🌙 DOM BRINKLEY Hailing from Alice Springs, Dom Brinkley is a genre-blending troubadour weaving psychedelic folk, blues, and soul into something uniquely his own. His Butterfly EP is a vibrant sonic escape, with tracks like Bad Wine and Paint channeling 70s funk, jazz, and Motown vibes. Whether solo or with his band, Dom’s music is rich with storytelling, groove, and emotional depth.

🎤TELITA LEE AND THE HUSKIES From the Central Coast of NSW, this collective is fronted by the soulful and commanding voice of Telita Lee Shoaib. Their music is a heartfelt blend of blues, folk, and country, infused with humor, vulnerability, and raw honesty. Songs like When I'm Gone and Baby Got a Crush showcase their knack for storytelling and emotional resonance.
