The Rider with Becko and Kasey Chambers 31:47

1M ago31:47

31:47

Kasey Chambers is nothing short of a national treasure. We as a nation cried and supported her when 'Not Pretty Enough' burst Kasey onto the scene. It was an anthem people related to and was in so many ways the most unlikely to be a number one hit. Now her 13th album is out, 'Backbone' which accompanies her book 'Just Don't Be a Dickhead'. A lot ha…

The Rider with Becko and Unwritten Law (Scotty) 24:44

1M ago24:44

24:44

Unwritten Law burst onto the scene in the late 90s with a fast-paced rock vibe that we all grew up with. Many years later, a true fan of the band took on the role of Tour Manager and then literally fell into the role of guitarist. This opportunity wasn't taken for granted, in fact it's more of an all-rounder role of Tour Manager, Guitarist, and som…

The Rider with Becko and Hayley Mary 35:58

35:58

The Jezabels superstar, Hayley Mary is all set to step into her solo persona with the debut album, "Roman XS."

The Rider with Becko and Missy Higgins 32:18

2M ago32:18

32:18

Missy Higgins has grown up with all of us and we've grown up with her. The debut album 'The Sound of White' was mostly written when she was 15 and it was perfect. Every Missy Higgins album was different moment in our lives, and hers too - from the highs to the lows. The latest album is 'The Second Act' and it literally is the next step of her life.…

The Rider with Becko and Adam Spark from Birds of Tokyo 36:12

Birds Of Tokyo will stage some unconventional shows in Australia’s favourite rock venues over the coming months. The ba…

The Rider with Becko and Diesel 52:59

3M ago52:59

52:59

Diesel is the legendary quiet achiever of the Aus music industry - constantly toiling away, touring and recording. You might find it hard to believe his latest album is his 17th! "Bootleg Melancholy" is out now and the national tour kicks off in late-August. Diesel is in a great zone, and this conversation - one of many I've had with him over the y…

1
The Rider with Becko and Kram from Spiderbait 36:26

3M ago36:26

36:26

The world was a different place in 2004 when Spiderbait went into the studio, armed with a somewhat crazy idea to cover 'Black Betty'. It was a year over great cover songs including 'Behind Blue Eyes', reworked by Limp Bizkit and we can't forget Shannon Noll's work with 'What About Me' - some kids even think that was the original!? Spiderbait decid…

The Rider with Becko and Bernard Fanning & Paul Dempsey 29:59

3M ago29:59

29:59

When you take two of the most respected Aussie musicians of the last 30 years and stick them in a studio - great things happen. Powderfinger's Bernard Fanning and Something For Kate's Paul Dempsey have given us 'Fanning Dempsey National Park'. (You'll find out why they settled on that name a little later in this episode) 'The Deluge' is finally out…

26:11

After 8 years, Empire of The Sun are back with a sensational new album "Ask That God." Their 4th album has been jam-packed with solid singles you expect from Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore - both songwriting machines. In this chat with Luke, we delve into the circumstances of the recording of this album and how the setbacks of covid may have assis…

The Rider with Becko and The Tea Party 33:37

5M ago33:37

33:37

The Tea Party is one of the great successes of the Canadian music scene. They burst onto the scene with their 3rd album, "The Edges of Twilight, " bringing them to Australia for the first time. Jeff Martin fell in love with the place and ended up staying! 25 years ago, "Triptych" was released and this tour celebrates this much-loved album. 'The thr…

The Rider with Becko and Sheppard 40:33

5M ago40:33

40:33

Brisbane band Sheppard's 4th album Zora brings happiness from its first listen. That's typical Sheppard though, it puts you in a better mood and that's exactly what the inspiration was behind the album - their grandmother Zora. The band are celebrating 10 years of 'Geronimo' - the song that acted like a slingshot and gave them a chance to tour the …

The Rider with Becko and Eskimo Joe 32:14

6M ago32:14

32:14

The Eskis make it count when they release new music. It's been five years since their last single and Aussie music fans are incredibly excited at the prospect of more new music from the pride of Fremantle. They haven't gone away, plenty of touring has been going on including Spring Loaded and more recently the Incubus and Live tour. The nostalgic "…

The Rider with Becko and Jebediah 34:18

7M ago34:18

34:18

Jebediah have always been a fan favourite since "Slightly Odway" came out in 1997. It certainly doesn't feel like 13 years since their last album Kosciuszko. OIKS, their sixth album is now out and it feels like they have picked up from where they left off, after over a decade. The fact they have gone into the same studio with producer, Dave Parkin …

The Rider with Becko and The Living End 33:24

1y ago33:24

33:24

We all remember where we were when we heard that debut album for the Living End - usually near a radio when "Prisoner of Society" was released. That album debuted at number one and stayed in the ARIA chart for 83 weeks - insane by any standards. 25 years since its release, frontman Chris Cheney reflects on the creation of the album: “I think unknow…

The Rider with Becko and Ben & Chris from Silverchair 26:52

1y ago26:52

26:52

Silverchair, born in Newcastle - 3 kids with some incredible talent and passion for making it to the world stage, and they did. Supported by their parents and the 'two Johns' (manager and record company boss), they became the band aussies were proud of. We saw them play the rooftop in NYC for the MTV VMA's, Rock in Rio and multiple Big Day Outs. Th…

The Rider with Becko and Murray Cook 28:16

1y ago28:16

28:16

Murray Cook is the most humble music superstar you'll ever meet. You would never believe he is an 'O.G. Wiggle' speaking to him, but his passion for the music scene is obvious when you start talking about 'the scene' in Sydney in the 70s and 80s. 'Dumb Luck' is his 4th album as part of the Soul Movers, you'll hear his brilliant riffs and even some …

1
The Rider with Becko and Fergus from Kingswood 34:06

1y ago34:06

34:06

Any band who can survive a 100+ show tour have something special. Kingswood are a great example of the work ethic Aussie bands are famous for - tour constantly and build an audience. Their latest album "Home" took them on the road for the "Hometowns tour" and now they head to Europe. We will hear about 'Peggy' the tour bus and how you survive trave…

The Rider with Becko and Alex from Voyager & Shane Howard 42:43

1y ago42:43

42:43

Voyager have been around the Perth music scene for years, in fact their new album 'Fearless in Love' is their 8th. Their campaign to be Australia's entrant in Eurovision has been long, but this year they finally made it, performing 'Promise' on the world stage. Alex from Voyager has plenty of stories on what goes on behind the scenes of Eurovision.…

The Rider with Becko and Tex Perkins 45:14

1y ago45:14

45:14

Tex Perkins is a national treasure - there, I said it! A true musician's frontman and more. You'll know him as part of The Beasts, celebrating their 40th anniversary, of course The Cruel Sea and The Fat Rubber Band. Recently the famous stolen 'Cruel Sea ARIA' was found in a dumpster and you'll hear the massive twist to the story which you won't get…

The Rider with Becko and Adalita from Magic Dirt 36:04

1+ y ago36:04

36:04

Magic Dirt are one of the hardest workers of 'the scene' - forming in 1991 in Geelong and numerous Big Day Outs to their name. It was late in the piece when 'Dirty Jeans' and 'Plastic Loveless Letter' gained a heap of airplay for them and entries into the JJJ Hottest 100 in the 2000s. Adalita has released numerous solo albums and her latest, 'Inlan…

The Rider with Becko and Pat Davern from Grinspoon 24:09

1+ y ago24:09

24:09

Grinspoon are back on the road and another reminder we are all getting old!! 24 years since the release of the album 'Easy' and 21 years of 'New Detention.' A great reason to re-release the albums, both on vinyl for the first time. The Easy Detention Tour will also kick off in October playing great venues across the country. The Grinners are always…

1
The Rider with Becko and Billy Corgan 38:46

1+ y ago38:46

38:46

When you sit opposite someone of the presence of Billy Corgan, you are reminded how important Smashing Pumpkins was to the sound of a generation. Billy has taken risks over the years, he doesn't doubt it - but he knows this 3-part album Atum, is making an impact with the fans. The riffs are all new - don't believe the hype from fan pages and music …

The Rider with Becko and Leo Sayer 54:08

54:08

Leo Sayer is the musician who has had it all. Rubbing shoulders with the likes of Lennon, Richards, Daltrey and Dylan - you'll hear the Bob story a little later in the podcast. Number one hits around the world, the fame and the setbacks and even a moment with Elvis that changed his life. This is an episode that is full of incredible moments, and he…

The Rider with Becko and Nathan Cavaleri 41:13

1+ y ago41:13

41:13

We've all heard the stories of child-stars falling on tough times, it's not something new. But you very rarely hear the success stories, like Nathan's. A loving family, supportive parents and an amazing wife and kids - and some great stories to tell. He has made some amazing music over the years, and this new album "Miracles" is special - he built …

The Rider with Becko and Jeff Martin 53:13

1+ y ago53:13

53:13

Jeff Martin is a legendary name in rock and Canadian royalty. His band, The Tea Party had already released albums and toured extensively before they rose to worldwide fame in the early 90s. His latest album, '7 Deadly Sins' is out 7 July (7/7/23) and we find out what he did differently this time around and the lessons learned post-covid. Jeff also …

The Rider with Becko and legendary drummer Matt Sorum 30:24

2y ago30:24

30:24

Matt Sorum, legendary drummer and the many of a million rock n roll stories. His book "Double Talkin' Jive" came out this year with so many brilliant stories of the touring life and what was it like to be sacked by Axl Rose. He has had so much success, but it didn't come without the dark times and a few bumps along the way. Finally, his passion pro…

The Rider with Becko and Chris O'Brien - From Soundwave to Good Things 36:30

2y ago36:30

36:30

We all have a Soundwave memory, seeing Iron Maiden on the main stage or a debut from Parkway Drive - it was a festival we all were proud to say "I was there at the beginning! Now, that same DNA carries on with Good Things Festival. It's on this December and we couldn't be more excited with NOFX coming back doing 'Punk in Drublic' and TISM returning…

What can you say about legendary producer Mark Opitz, that hasn't been said before? Just look at the track record: Cold Chisel - EAST, AC/DC - Powerage, Angels - Face to Face, INXS Shabooh Shoobah, Jimmy Barnes - For the Working Class Man.

The Rider with Becko and Sarah McLeod from The Superjesus 43:01

2y ago43:01

43:01

I was reflecting on how important The Superjesus were to the 'scene' in the 90s and then reinventing themselves with an incredibly polished sound after 2000. Gravity, Down Again, Saturation, then later Enough to know and Secret Agent Man. It's so exciting to hear the news they are returning with new music in 2023. Sarah during the pandemic made a h…

The Rider with Becko and Jim Kerr from Simple Minds 19:16

2y ago19:16

19:16

I've spoken to Jim Kerr many times over the years, even once while he was sitting by the pool in his hotel in Sicily. (Hotel Villa Angela.. if you want to check it out) But I've never spoken to him while on promo for a new album, and this 18th album "Direction Of The Heart" is bloody impressive. How can a heritage artist stay hungry and still creat…

The Rider with Becko and What So Not 25:36

2y ago25:36

25:36

I've been hearing over the years that Chris Emerson ('What So Not') was someone I had to interview - they said we 'were really similar people' and would just click when it came to talking about music, life and the challenges of the last couple of years. 'What So Not' has just released his 3rd album, Anomaly and it proves that these isolation albums…

1
The Rider with Becko and Orianthi & Gavin Rossdale from Bush 37:29

2y ago37:29

37:29

This week on The Rider we have two massive artists who both have some incredible new music out. First up, Orianthi who is about to release her next new album, Rock Candy. We talk about why she didn't do an album with Prince, after he offered (but songs recorded with him are in a vault somewhere), how she has kept her Aussie accent after 17 years in…

1
The Rider with Becko and Amy Sheppard (Bonus chat Rob Hirst) 42:56

2y ago42:56

42:56

We all remember how huge Sheppard's 'Geronimo' was, in fact it was so big it almost became a meme of itself. The song took Sheppard around the world 5 times over and a tour run that simply exhausted them. Amy Sheppard has gone it alone for a new project, her EP 'Nothing but wild' - which is out now. No doubt you have heard her song 'Blue Guitar' al…

The Rider with Becko and Frankie Poullain from The Darkness 24:00

2y ago24:00

24:00

The Darkness are about to touch down to kick off the Motorheart Aussie tour, and this is a big deal. The band love Australia, our pub rock and our pubs! Hear Frankie's response when I reveal to him one of his favourite rock bars in Sydney is closing down. Motorheart, The Darkness' latest album was recorded in isolation and we hear the struggles of …

The Rider with Becko and Vance Joy 23:52

2y ago23:52

23:52

It's hard to believe 'Riptide' was 8 years ago! This Aussie legend became a household name almost overnight, but as we all know - it's never an 'overnight success.'In this Series 3 opener of The Rider with Becko, we catch up with Vance Joy and find out how this 3rd album is a little different from the rest. As he heads out on another Aussie tour we…

The Rider with Becko and Ben Gillies 36:32

2+ y ago36:32

36:32

It's crazy when you realise how young Daniel, Chris and Ben were when they formed "Innocent Criminals" which would become Silverchair. These 15 year olds went into the studio to create one of the greatest debuts as we know it, "Tomorrow" (the album version is a little different as you'll find out). The band would grow and in a way, we grew up with …

Chit Chat Von Loopin Stad: Member of Machine Gun Fellatio, journalist, composer and now movie maker. He was deep in the Sydney indy music scene back in the 90s and has a million stories to tell.

The Rider with Becko and Rai from Thirsty Merc 31:04

2+ y ago31:04

31:04

Live touring has been taken for granted since covid. We don't understand the risk involved in touring regional areas as it is now - the rising costs and you are just one sniffle away from a gig being cancelled. Thirsty Merc have been one of the hardest working bands in the last 20 years and their new Aussie covers album, "Celebration" is literally …

The Rider with Becko and Ian Haug (The Church / Powerfinger) 36:20

2+ y ago36:20

36:20

Imagine leaving the band you've spent most of your adult life in, (over 20 years) and then trying to figure out what's next. That's very much how things were when Powderfinger broke up, leaving Ian Haug with the search for 'what's next." In 2013, he joined The Church, a band he looked up to in his teenage years and beyond - it's like playing with y…

The Rider with Becko and Awolnation (Aaron Bruno) 30:55

2+ y ago30:55

30:55

Awolnation's "Sail" was one of the biggest songs in the world in 2011. So far, the song has achieved 1.5 billion streams and is certified Diamond - that doesn't happen by accident. This anonymous (and humble) musician was all of a sudden on every radio station and thrust into the spotlight after achieving a small deal with Red Bull Records. His 5th…

The Rider with Becko and Tim Wheatley 48:34

2+ y ago48:34

48:34

Tim Wheatley comes from a special family. His Dad Glenn and Mother, Gaynor gave him very much a rock & roll upbringing but somehow he stayed grounded. His father, bass player for the Master Apprentices went on to manage Little River Band and took them from filling pubs in Australia to stadiums of America. Of course we know his history managing John…

The Rider with Becko and Ajay & Jeremy from Lit 31:35

2+ y ago31:35

31:35

Lit paved the way for the modern rock scene in the late 90s with "My Own Worst Enemy" getting airplay not just in their home, California but right around the world. The rock wave later introduced bands like Good Charlotte, Blink 182, Simple Plan and Sum 41 to the mainstream, pls being part of major sound tracks like American Pie. Ajay and Jeremy ha…

2+ y ago38:48

38:48

Kav Temperley is working on his 2nd solo album, "Machines of Love and Grace" and after hearing the title track - you know he is carrying on from where he left off with Eskimo Joe. The song is a straight-up Eskis track and you'll find out in this interview that it almost was. The song was workshopped during covid and as Kav explains, it is heavily i…

The Rider with Becko and Chuck from Simple Plan 27:13

2+ y ago27:13

27:13

Simple Plan are back with their 6th album and it couldn't come at a better time. The usual Covid dilemmas pushed back the release to 2022, since bands couldn't tour or promote their new music and as Chuck says, it didn't really feel appropriate to release and celebrate a new release while people were going through such tough times. We all grew up w…

2+ y ago51:01

51:01

Tony Mott (not actually his real name - you'll hear what it is later in the podcast) has collected rock stars like 'Trainspotting' (like the book). He's had access to the biggest names in music, but it's not all about the photos - it's the stories he's collected along the way. In this podcast, you'll hear about: Queen's last concert at Knebworth (a…
