Angus Stone

Angus Stone was born on 27 April 1986 and grew up in Sydney. His parents, John and Kim Stone, were both folk musicians.{{cite news | last = Murfett | first = Andrew | date = 3 September 2010 | title = Stone Hearts Renewed | url = http://www.theage.com.au/entertainment/music/stone-hearts-renewed-20100902-14r1y.html | work = The Age | publisher = Fairfax Media | accessdate = 9 December 2012 | location=Melbourne}} Stone's older sisters are Catherine (born ca. 1982) and Julia Stone (born 13 April 1984). Stone attended Newport Primary School and Barrenjoey High School. At primary school he joined the school band with his father teaching and his sisters accompanying. At family gatherings when the children performed, Stone played trombone, Catherine on saxophone and Julia on trumpet with Kim singing and John on keyboard or guitar.{{cite news | last = Murfett | first = Andrew | title = Angus & Julia Stone | url = http://www.theage.com.au/news/gig-previews--reviews/angus--julia-stone/2007/10/16/1192300745813.html?page=fullpage#contentSwap1 | work = The Age | publisher = Fairfax Media | date = 16 October 2007 | accessdate = 9 December 2012 | location=Melbourne}} At about the age of 14 years his parents separated and soon after he started writing pop songs. Stone joined a band in high school as lead singer playing both covers and original songs. The band performed at numerous local community events.

While on a holiday with his sister to South America, Stone showcased his musical side to Julia, "[Angus] was writing amazing songs ... [he] had shown me how to play guitar in Bolivia, and those songs had gotten me through that year". By 2005 Stone was playing at open mic nights, sometimes Julia performed backing vocals – their first such gig, at the Coogee Bay Hotel, they performed "Tears".{{cite news | url = http://jasontreuen.wordpress.com/2007/10/24/frankie-first-and-last-times-with-julia-stone/ | title = First and Last Times with Julia Stone | work = frankie | publisher = Morrison Media | last = Treuen | first = Jason | date = 24 October 2007 | accessdate = 10 December 2012 }} After playing split sets with each singing backing vocals to the other's material, in 2006, they formed a duo, Angus & Julia Stone. In March that year the pair recorded their debut extended play, Chocolates and Cigarettes, which was released in August. Since then the group has released two EPs, two compilation albums and five studio albums.

In April 2009, after touring for over a year in support of the duo's first studio album, A Book Like This (September 2007), Stone released his debut solo album, Smoking Gun, under the pseudonym, Lady of the Sunshine. It was recorded over six weeks during 2008 with Finn (Govinda Doyle) – who also played drums and bass guitar – in a converted old water tank on Finn's property in North Queensland.{{cite news | last = O'Keefe | first = Corrine | title = Review: Lady of the Sunshine – Smoking Gun | url = http://musicfeeds.com.au/album/lady-of-the-sunshine-smoking-gun/ | work = Music Feeds | date = 23 July 2009 | accessdate = 11 December 2011 }} In an interview on national radio station, Triple J, with Richard Kingsmill, Stone said that the album came out of "growing an appetite for wanting to rock out". Stone explained that he had played in rock bands while in high school, they covered material by Rage Against the Machine and Red Hot Chili Peppers – these influences are loosely present on Smoking Gun.{{cite web | last = Kingsmill | first = Richard | title = Lady of the Sunshine Talks to Richard Kingsmill | url = http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/media/s2537023.htm | publisher = Triple J.

I wanted these songs to have their own style. I enjoyed watching how the songs took on their own ride, most from the simplest of ideas". The album reached the top 50 on the ARIA Albums Chart.{{cite web | url = http://www.australian-charts.com/showinterpret.asp?interpret=Lady+Of+The+Sunshine | title = Discography Lady of the Sunshine | publisher = Australian Charts Portal.

Last year the old man gave me his old telecaster which gave me the chance to move into a heavier sound.

We {{sic|nolink=y|layed}} down the tracks in about 6 weeks throughout 2008, recording in an old water tank Smooth Biquette had fixed up. Finn's wife would cook supper for us & her new born baby whilst we worked till the young hours of dawn. I guess the idea of this album was that there would be no idea of how it would come together as a whole. I wanted these songs to have their own style. I enjoyed watching how the songs took on their own ride, most from the simplest of ideas. I wanted to work on the artwork as we did the music. A friend Caroline & I worked on different ideas, she then would take our conversation onto the canvas and create the picture for each song. So ... Lady of the Sunshine peace' ....
