Midnight Juggernauts

Description:
I feel a certain pride when something Australian does well overseas. There’s a word for it in Yiddish – the satisfaction a mother derives from her son’s success – ‘nachas’. Although the Midnight Juggernauts aren’t my children, they still give me nachas. The Melbourne trio spent the last year gracing some of the world’s most prestigious stages, including those of Glastonbury and Coachella. They’re home this Friday to promote latest offering, This New Technology, so give in to your patriotic maternal instincts and come. – DZ
