Australian Album of the year for 2015 & the winner is......


Five records in, sold out shows in large Australian venues, recognition of overseas, a huge Top 20 single and an extreme amount of airplay for multiple singles from this brilliant 5th record, it clearly has been the year of the music from the Mountains.

Hermitude residing in Sydney's Blue Mountains are Australia's most dynamic duo of the past few years and leaders in the Australian music business.

Beating the other amazing nine nominations for the Australian Album of 2015 Hermitude have shown experience in the industry has finally paid off. Since their debut EP in 2002 it's been a monster ride for the group across multiple genres.

El Gusto and Luke Dubs have shown 2015 they ruled kings of the dance floor across this nation and abroad.


With tracks like The Buzz, Through the Roof, Searchlight and Ukiyo all across the radio and an album full of bangers this was too hard to go past for the Australian Album of 2015.

From start to finish this perfect record is going to be amazing to catch at this years Laneway Festival touring the nation.

The group received 7 ARIA nominations in 2015, a J Award Nomination and multiple rave reviews for this fine record. Australia and NSW should be proud of the duo from the almighty Blue Mountains as they are my Australian Album of 2015 and with 2016 shaping up to be a BIG year in Aussie music, what albums will be in the Album of 2016 race? I have a feeling a nomination is on the way and it may very well be Australia. Stay Tuned.

Well done Hermitude as Flashing off the Record continues Australian music month...
