Uh let's go for a woman with a guitar who I think is doing much better music than the lads with the guitars.

This is Olivia Rodrigo, who is having a hell of a year, a hell of a run really in general.

She's kind of in can do no wrong territory for me and a lot of other people at the moment.

And she just dropped uh a brand new limited edition single on CD just last Friday, but now it's hit the streaming platforms.

This one is called Serena Joy.

has.

She really has, yeah.

And I think the thing is, like, I mean, you can hear the kind of new wave influence there.

She's been endorsed by the likes of David Byrne and Robert Smith.

And some people have kind of said, Ah, look, it's cynical.

She's playing to that rockist kind of market.

And it's like, I don't care if she is, if it sounds this good.

And also, I think it will inspire a brand new generation of young women to follow in her footsteps and make good music as well.

And that there's nothing wrong with that at all.

Uh you you can't call any of these acts alternative.

Tame and Pala and Somber are also in there.

These are main stage headliners at festivals, these are mainstream acts.

And there's nothing wrong with being that, by the way, but that's not what they are.

If you want alternative and I you know, I am sensing a bit of tension this year today, boys as well, come join me down the front at Idols and Deftones later on I'll Sabies a spot.
