From the sleepy beachside town of Umina, NSW - Alex, Tim, Lachy, and John are Slow Down Honey. They have spent their teen years writing, jamming, and playing small seaside pubs and private parties. The core of the band, Alex and Tim, have been playing music together since the age of 8 years old. They love the hard work, says Alex, “We’ve got an Aussie work ethic. It’s just no bullshit, no gimmicks, straight down the line song writing.”

MICK THOMAS has been determined to reconfirm his standing as one of Australia's finest singer/songwriters - both solo and with his gun band THE SURE THING. Apart from the occasional one-off reformation show with the iconic WEDDINGS PARTIES ANYTHING, Mick has been busy with his own label, Croxton Records, and making the new MICK THOMAS AND THE SURE THING album. Produced by Mick with Craig Pilkington, PADDOCK BUDDY was recorded in the Northern Victorian Goldfields in May 2006.
