Australian independent music company Mushroom Group has launched a new podcast, Hit Different, centred around homegrown music and culture.

The weekly series will be hosted by Aussie music journalists Mikey Cahill, Sosefina Fuamoli and Marcus Teague. Each episode, released every Monday, will feature stories and one interview with an artist or music industry figure.

“[Hit Different] answers the how and why, charting the impact of evolving music culture events, serving the hottest tea and digging deeper on music stories with an unparalleled, how-the-f**k-did-they-get-them raft of guests using the contact books within the team,” a statement read.

The first episode, released yesterday, covers the recent Live At The Bowl concert series in Melbourne, the issue of Aussie artists unable to tour overseas and an interview with Meadow Festival’s Cameron Wade.

Hit Different sits alongside Mushroom Group’s other music podcast 180 Grams, which launched last year and is also hosted by Cahill.
