After smashing out a Sydney show on Saturday night, the four of them kept the party going by throwing a free pop-up at a pub on Sunday.

But in the past four weeks, she’s opened for Fred Again at Coroglen, jumped on stage with him at Spark Arena, and played in front of 35,000 people at the final show of Fred’s Aussie tour. She hopped in the studio with George Drive and gave the full rundown not only on how it happened, but what the aftermath has been like.

We may still be mourning his departure from our shores, but the Fred Again hype-machine continues to crank. The bloke dropped two brand-new tracks yesterday, parking them up in his ‘USB’ album for his tunes that don’t have another home. The new singles are called ‘ItsNotREEAALLLLLLLL’ and ‘BerwynGesaffNeighbours’. You gotta respect the guy’s ability to come up with out-the-gate titles.
