Ep69. Glorious Heights with Montaigne

This week the C*rdeliers chat with pop chanteux and impresario Montaigne, ahead of their appearance at the Bella Ciao anti fascist festival this weekend at the Thornbury Theatre.

They talk about pop music in Australia, the difficulty of juggling political and aesthetic commitments and remaining to true to one’s vision, the stakes of speaking out for Palestine, and the experience of major label and independent record production.

You can buy tix to the festy here:Before that, the Petr*leuses talk Secret Harbour One Nation victory, Labor self-sabotage, the ideal candidates for each party, penny wong casuistry and the French Revolution.

Thanks as always to “dictator” Dan Dare for production.

Song is no strain by the southend rainbows.
