The Thousands

Sweetie here does so much stuff that she’s hard to keep track of. You might know her from Monday and Friday afternoons on FBi. Or perhaps from the photos she’s taken for this very publication. You might have seen her running around with her organise-y face on at the Laneway Festival earlier this year, and it’s possible she and her bikie gang have whirred past you at some point, leaving a trail of cupcakes in their wake. What’s important right now though is that she found some time to make us a mixtape (all in the name of saving FBi of course)! We asked her a few questions:

What makes a good mixtape?
Excellent songs & a theme.

What’s your favourite track on the mix?
That’s like trying to choose a favourite food or your favourite child. Too difficult. I love them all for different reasons.

What do you love about making radio?
I love that I’m able to come across new music every day of the week & then share it with the audience. Hopefully we’re able to open peoples minds to new genres, help them discover their new favourite band or rediscover bands they’d fogotten about. Plus…it’s wonderful being surrounded by all the legends who volunteer at FBi.

Why should people come to the Final Fling on Sat?
It’s going to be a massive party, the line up is 100% bananas and there are going to be heaps of babes.
