Studio 5 Live

Kuzco - the Australian/Maori synthesist, vocalist & producer living and creating in Naarm/Melbourne - is a deeply revered figure on the Naarm and Meanjin scene as a heavyweight session keyboardist.

Recently forging her own sound, Kuzco's musical background spans countless genres and songs, embodying and reflecting on her musical heritage. In her own words "the intention is to write music that activates the sensuality of feeling music in the body, and reigniting the self with fluid movement."

The Burning Bridges are an acoustic family band that have been performing since 2012, appearing regularly at national festivals and at venues of distinction across Melbourne and statewide. The band’s repertoire harks back to the bedrock of American country music (The Carter Family, The Louvin Brothers, Ralph Stanley, The Delmore Brothers) and includes bluegrass, old time, alt-country, and an expanding catalogue of original songs and tunes, plus a little contemporary material reworked for a classic sound.  

Dr Sure’s Unusual Practice make modern punk music in the primordial sense of the word - no rules. Combining elements of post-punk, new wave, full power rock 'n' roll, avant-garde and surrealism. Their ethos is creative resistance - innovative and politically subversive - using music, performance, visual art and film to project a message that’s equal parts critical and hopeful.

Listen back to Homebrew with Brooke for an exclusive Studio 5 Live session with the band.
