NEW MUSIC VIDEO: Cub Sport ‘O Lord’
Cub Sport share the new video for “O Lord” – which not only visually represents the liberation of coming out, but also breaks down some of the personal battles with beauty and masculinity Tim has experienced in his life. This is Cub Sport shaking off their demons, and baring all.
“I feel like the O Lord video is the visual soulmate for the song – it beautifully represents what the song means for me and it feels like a personal triumph! I was bullied when I was growing up because I wasn’t as masculine as some of my peers apparently thought I should be. It’s something I’ve been self-conscious about for years, so it’s super liberating to make this video and feel free from judgement. The video was directed, shot and edited by the wonderful Joe Agius. I couldn’t imagine making this video with anybody else.”
– Tim Nelson Continue reading “NEW MUSIC VIDEO: Cub Sport ‘O Lord’”

Special Interview: Tom Lee-Richards
theaussieword.com catches up with Tom Lee-Richards.
Tell us how it all started. What had you first interested in music?
I probably don’t know what first drew me to music. I do remember a 4 year old fascination with the Beatles as typical as that sounds. I didn’t consciously want to sound like them though. I also remember enjoying making mouth noises which was my first experimentation with rhythm. Then I wanted to be Michael Jackson at about age 7.
What motivates or influences you in your quest to make great music?
Wanting to say something about the odd world we live in usually turns into the bones of a song. I’m always making up melodies and percussion ideas as I go about my day though which is fun. Then it feels good to turn it all into a complete arrangement.
What are your biggest goals you hope to accomplish as an artist?
I want to immerse myself in a few totally different styles of music and collaborate with and learn from some of my favourite artists in each of those areas of music. I think that is a great challenge especially as it means letting go of the idea that one musical style defines me. Oh also more world touring. Continue reading “Special Interview: Tom Lee-Richards”
NEW MUSIC VIDEO: Shania Twain ‘Life’s About To Get Good’
Multi-platinum and multi-award winning Global superstar Shania Twain has released the Matthew Cullen directed video for her single ‘Life’s About to Get Good’. The track is taken from ‘Now’, Shania’s first album in fifteen years, out September 29, on Mercury, Nashville. When writing “Life’s About to Get Good,” Shania explains, “I was at home looking out at the ocean and I said to myself, ‘Here I am stuck in this past of negativity, but it’s so beautiful out. I’m not in the mood to write a ‘feeling-sorry-for-myself’ song.” The songwriter recognized that with all of the negative in life also comes the positive. “You can’t have the good without the bad. And that’s what the song ended up being about.” Shania is a five-time GRAMMY Award-winner and the reigning Queen of Country Pop.

Special Interview: Lina
theaussieword.com catches up with Lina, the first American / Palestinian winner of Israel’s The Voice!
Tell us how it all started. What had you first interested in music? I’ve loved music since a very young age. Actually my first appearance on tv was when I was 5 years old, when they interviewed me about music instruments that me and my sister built from recycled plastic.. but the first time I took singing seriously was when I was 16 during a piano lesson. My piano teacher heard me singing for the first time and was completely shocked, and made me perform the song (playing the piano and singing) in front of everyone in the conservatory. I owe her big time! Continue reading “Special Interview: Lina”
