Andrew Stockdale has found his happy place. He’s sitting at his house in Bangalow, just outside Byron Bay, looking out at the rolling hills and feeling an overwhelming sense of contentment. “Byron Bay is a very inspiring part of the world,” he says of the north coast hippie enclave. “It’s just ridiculously inspiring – you could create so much art and so much music continuously here.” He thrives...

The Nick Cave-led... Read More
