Australian music duo Angus & Julia Stone have released their latest album, "Karaoke Bar," with recording sessions held in picturesque locations including Hydra, Greece.
The sibling pair, who have been performing together for two decades, found inspiration in their childhood home and the creative process itself. Their father's background as a wedding singer influenced their early exposure to music.
A significant experience during the Hydra sessions was a chance encounter with Adam Cohen, son of the late Leonard Cohen, whose music has been a profound influence on the Stone siblings.
The title track, "Karaoke Bar," notably interpolates a chorus from Neil Diamond's classic "Sweet Caroline," a song their father frequently sang.
This new album follows their 2024 release, "Cape Forestier," and marks another chapter in their enduring musical partnership, which they describe as a "dance" requiring balance and mutual support.
