We’re going international on this week’s Geek Girl Riot! Our Rioters head to Italy for some adventures with Luca, stop off in France to pull off some heists with Lupin, before winding up in London for a pint with Starstruck.
Cancel all your plans because you’re about to get swept away into a dizzy daydream with VÉRITÉ’s Tell Me Live.
Take a few minutes today to be totally entranced by Devin Kennedy and his sweet, sweet music. After giving us a peak at glorious music studio in Los Angeles, Devin gives us acoustic versions of “Sundress” and “Happy Yet”. Hang out and fall in love on today’s Tour de Session.
We’re ringing that spoiler siren because Geek Girl Riot is diving all the way into The Falcon and The Winter Soldier AND Invincible. Yup, put your fists up and come get rowdy with us, ’cause both these shows fight hard, fast & dirty.
This week we chinwag about as Jess and Bowie’s experience using Masterclass. Afterward, we chat with Australian singer/songwriter Zoe Badwi.
Zoë Badwi began her music career as one third of girl band Sirens before embarking on a solo career that has so far spawned several club chart-topping anthems. She joined girl group trio Sirens, who scored two hits, “Like Fire, Like Rain” and a cover version of the Pointer Sisters’ “I’m So Excited” before disbanding in 2001. Badwi continued to write and perform, and was later spotted fronting band, Black Dogs. Performing at a Melbourne club, electronic duo TV Rock’s Grant Smillie, was so impressed by her vocals that he invited her to work with him. After signing to Neon Records, her debut solo single, “Release Me,” was nominated for Best Dance Release at the 2009 ARIA Award and APRA awards. It was followed by Top Ten single “Freefallin’.” She secured a U.S. deal with Atlantic Records and began work on her debut album and tours the world performing, including touring with Little Mix.

For an album that clocks in at less than forty minutes, Death of an Optimist takes us on a whirlwind journey that perfectly encapsulates this chaotic year and what it means… Read more »
