    Lanie Lane's 'To The Horses' achieves gold status!

    Mushroom Music Publishing congratulates Lanie Lane on achieving gold status for her debut album 'To The Horses' in Australia. Upon its release, 'To The Horses' introduced Australia to one of the most distinctive new voices and charming characters to arrive on the scene in recent times. The record served up a collection of fantastic tales of love, heartbreak and, at the opposite end of the spectrum, celebration.

    Reflecting on the album going gold, Lanie says:
    “It's a massive achievement to receive a gold record, and it gives all the people involved a chance to acknowledge and reflect on their hard work. My bandmates, management, everyone involved in recording, mixing and mastering, Ivy League & Mushroom Group are all an integral part of everything I do. This would not have happen without their passion, skills and dedication! I am so grateful and very proud of everyone. I also thank profusely all the people who bought the album. You are the ones who make it all worth it, I'm so thrilled you enjoyed it!”

    The success of the album was built upon a connection that Lanie established with her audience through tireless touring and great songs, inviting people into her own very distinct world.

    It’s been a ride that’s covered recording and touring with Jack White, entering the ARIA album charts at #12, selling out her own national tours, multiple APRA and ARIA Award nominations, an FBI SMAC Award for Album of the Year, The Age EG Award for Best Female, the AIR Award for Best Blues and Roots album, appearances at every major festival, every minor festival and every point in between, and by pulling off the hardest trick of all - making an album that resonated with a lot of people. Importantly, Lanie has had the time of her life doing so.

    NEW SIGNING VIA UNFD | LOON LAKE

    Mushroom Music is excited to welcome Melbourne indie rockers Loon Lake to the Mushroom Publishing fold via our friends at We Are Unified (UNFD). The five-piece consisting of brothers Sam, Nick, Simon and friends Tim & Dan stopped by the Mushroom office on Tuesday evening to make it official.

    The Wangaratta boys have gone from strength to strength after catching an early break with their debut single 'Easy Chairs' capturing the attention of Zan Rowe at tiple j in 2010 who has since been a huge champion of the band. Countless festivals nationally and touring with the likes of The Kaiser Chiefs, Ball Park Music, Faker, Red Riders & selling out multiple headline shows in their own right, Loon Lake continue to evolve in leaps and bounds.

    2 EPs deep and still on a high from scoring #29 in this year’s triple j Hottest 100 countdown with their dangerously sweet single 'Cherry Lips', the guys are currently in the studio tracking their debut LP set for release later this year.

    Mushroom in conjunction with We Are Unified are ecstatic to welcome Loon Lake aboard and we look forward to the no doubt, exciting times to come.

    STOLEN GEAR | STONEFIELD - KING GIZZARD & THE LIZARD WIZARD – FRASER A. GORMAN

    Regrettably we are writing today to inform you that several Mushroom songwriters arrived home to their property in the Preston/Thornbury area the evening of Thursday 2nd May to find that their front door had been kicked in, their house ransacked and personal valuables stolen.

    Michael Cavanagh (King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard) & Amy Findlay (Stonefield) had a brand new TV, a Mac book & harddrive (with irreplaceable pro tools sessions), two guitars and a bunch of other valuables stolen. One of the guitars belonged to Stu from King Gizz.

    Also caught up in the theft was recent signing Fraser A. Gorman whose guitar was also stolen in the burglary.
    “My guitar also got stolen, unfortunately it’s not as clearly identifiable as Stu's guitar. It is an acoustic Maton em325 cutaway. It was made in 2003... I'm trying to track down the serial number. The only characteristic it has is it’s back creaks a bit when you play it and has a little bit of wear where you strum.” – Fraser A. Gorman

    Cav, Amy and Fraser (as well as their respective bands) are all obviously gutted and would dearly like to salvage what they can from the burg. We are appealing to the public to keep an eye out for the missing goods, in particular the guitars. If anyone see them pop up at Cash Converters, pawn brokers, markets, ebay, Gumtree, classifieds or at local gigs please let us know.

    If anyone at all has any information about the stolen gear we ask that you please contact us immediately to help return the items to their respective owners.
