With the vibrant indie music scene in Australia and New Zealand constantly outshining much of the output from their British and American cousins, Little Indie picks our weekly bunch of some of the best new tracks on offer.
ANTONY JEFFARES - WE CARRY ON
Auckland, NZ singer-songwriter follows debut single 'Wrong/Loss', with 70s influenced groove, released last week, co-written with Mark Perkins (Merk). “I’d been stuck on this song, and so brought in my good friend Merk to help rework the chorus, and we got it feeling right. I was really channeling Dr Hook on the production, and even managed to sneak a flute solo in there. The song is a simple ode to getting through the tough moments,” says Jeffares.

Last heard back in the summer with 'Die Like A Rose', the Wellington, NZ artist teams up with rapper PollyHill, and with Imugi 이무기 on backing vocals, for this new self-produced electronic-alt pop banger.
GRIDS AND DOTS - NEVER CHANGE
Produced by Miles Selwyn, the debut single, released last week, from the Sydney-based alt-pop band is a dreamy fusion of shoegaze, psych-pop, and noise-rock.
WILLING - COLLUSION
After his trap-rock jam, 'Hungry', the Melbourne avant-pop artist follows with a longing beach-pop electronic ballad chronicling the implosion of a long-term gay relationship. Catch live in the UK for a one-off date this Thursday (December 12) at Hop King in London SE1.
