We’ve just had an exciting visit from a face we recognised straight away: The Voice top 50 contestant Aimee Hannan is booking in a long run of shows, and we’ve made sure to set her up with everything she needs to turn heads and rock some socks off.
Aimee has been turning heads and has a huge list of accolades behind her - two Barry Thornton Encouragement awards, the Capital Country Music Association, the World Star Quest and extensive training at the CMAA Country Music Academy and much, much more. She’s had a busy slew of gigs, and is showing no signs of slowing down, with her debut album and long list of upcoming gigs available on her website, aimeehannan.com.au
If you haven’t already heard of and been impressed by her hard work and talent, definitely give her a listen!

The All New Fender Squier Contemporary range are here, and they look great.
Squier have released a new series based on and paying tribute to the groundbreaking 80s Japanese-built ‘Contemporary Super Strat’ series, and built for heavy metal guitarists, musical acrobats, improvisational gymnasts, and other players looking for fast playability and rich, heavy tones
The range is already quite diverse, with stratocasters AND telecasters focussing on dual humbucker, active humbuckers, and ceramic single coils working with floyd rose bridges, flat 12” radius necks to race across, jumbo frets for slick, easy bending and vibrato, and dark, powerful colours like Dark Red Metallic, Black Metallic, and Pearl White.
“How many times does an angel fall?” - David Bowie, ‘Blackstar’
Blackstar Amps are rising up, and every time they do, they change, grow, and evolve, like some many-headed hydra.
Do you know what the most requested item in Blackstar Amplification’s history has been? It’s none of their award winning amps, none of the HT valve-driven pedals, or even the ridiculously amazing sounding Fly-3 battery-powered portable amps. It’s bass amplifiers. 10 years of making waves and turning heads in the guitar scene, and still what they hear the most talk about is how much the bass-playing community wants to be a part of the Blackstar movement. And it’s no surprise that when Blackstar descends from the heavens and answers their prayers, it’s changing things forever.
