If you haven't already heard, Skinny's is no longer closing down. Instead the store will remain open under new ownership, but no other major changes. This is great news for anyone made a purchase or witnessed an instore performance at Skinny's over the years. Fingers crossed there will be many more to come.
A new year means a new Hot 100 from 4ZzZ. Congratulations goes to Texas Tea who took out the number one spot for the second year running with their song 'Whiskey And Wine', as well as eight spot with another song. Six Ft Hick and I Heart Hiroshima also performed strongly with two songs a piece. Head over to the 4ZzZ website to see the whole list.
Congratulations also goes to the John Steel Singers who have won the Queensland leg of Triple J Unearthed, giving them the opportunity to play at the Gold Coast Big Day Out.
