Australia’s Coldest 100 – 2024

Jan 26, 2024 Maynard

Australia’s Coldest 100 returns for 2024 this Saturday 27th January with @ozkitsch presenting 100 tunes you won’t find easily anywhere on any continent.

Just look at this list of artists that Andrew Sholl has curated that you’ll never again see on the same list. This is Andrew’s eighth Coldest 100 and he doesn’t see Farnham clips running out anytime soon.

The 2024 Coldest 100 brings you Barnsey, Alexander Downer, Tiny Tim, Cilla Black and a rubber chicken.

If that isn’t enough to incite your antipodean awkwardness, well, bugger ya.

After all, anyone can put together a list of the latest good songs. It takes a certain kind of expert like Andrew Sholl to put together 100 songs of Australian musical hoo-haa for 8 years in a row now.

This is a version of You Are The Voice you may enjoy, or not…

It will all be going down from 10am Saturday 27th January on X and Instagram @Ozkitsch Andrew Sholl shows no sign of ever stopping his annual festival of Aussie awkwardness. So lean into it.

Brain Freeze – A Coldest 100 video livestream – 2023 (Parts 1 & 2)

May 13, 2023 Maynard

Brain Freeze Part One

Australia has always enjoyed an inordinate ability to laugh at itself, so needing a good laugh and well meaning carry-on, enjoy Brain Freeze with 30 odd (very odd) video clips from the Coldest 100 – 2023.

With two big shows over two Saturday nights, it is Australia’s Coldest 100 – 2023. Hand picked by Andrew Sholl, it features world class musical shonk that only Australia can produce. From Marlene Dietrich to Steven Farnham via Skippy. The Coldest 100 is songs about Australia, or by Australians that sometimes don’t work out that well…

Brain Freeze Part Two

Appearances from Tim Ferguson, Lesley Fountain (Glenn Keenan), Brigitte Handley, Charlie Fatt, Tony Push, Richard Saunders and (time permitting) Noam Chomsky the communist teddy bear arts lawyer.

Just look at this list of artists that Andrew Sholl has curated that you’ll never again see on the same bill. The Coldest 100 – 2023 brings Bud Tingwell, Germaine Greer, Tina Arena, The Singing Citizens of Macarthur, Johnny Raper, Ian Turpie singing some Nirvana, and the legend himself, Steven Farnham.

From Skippy to The Muppets, Kamahl, Young Talent Time, Julia Morris and Melissa Tkautz, it’s two shows YOU don’t have to apologise for.

Going out as livestreams in HQ with a pre show, here are the edited versions for you.

Keep an eye out for special guests Tim Ferguson, Brigitte Handley, Lesley Fountain/Glenn Keenan, Charlie Fatt and others that were sucked in to add to the cultural carnage.

@OzKitsch on Twitter has been compiling this list every January for the last eight years. This year his clips were so good we made the show twice…

Australia’s Coldest 100 returns for 2023 this Saturday 28th January with world class musical curiosities that only this wide and very beige land of Australia can produce.

Just look at this list of artists that Andrew Sholl has curated that you’ll never again see on the same list. This is Andrew’s seventh Coldest 100 and he doesn’t foresee running out of clips anytime soon.

The 2023 Coldest 100 brings Bud Tingwell, Wickety Wak, Germaine Greer, Tina Arena, The singing Citizens of Macarthur, Johnny Raper, Ian Turpie singing some Nirvana, and the legend himself, Steven Farnham.

Thrill to wonderful jingles that remind you of the natural beauty that is Perth, Brisbane and a chicken restaurant chain in Melbourne.

A recession may be averted by the use of interpretive dance on the Sunrise show…

After all, anyone can put together a list of the latest good songs. It takes a certain kind of goose like Andrew Sholl to put together 100 songs of Australian musical flotsam for 8 years in a row now.

The Coldest 100 this year has everything from Marlene Dietrich to Steven Farnham…

Australia’s Coldest 100 returns this Saturday with world class musical shonk that only Australia can produce.

Just look at this list of artists that you’ll never see on the same list or even in the same sentence.

Don Lane, Kyle Sandilands, Liza Minnelli, Ben Fordham, James Reyne, Samuel L Jackson, Barry Crocker, The Muzak Corporation, Wickety Wak, Lorrae Desmond, Frankie J Holden, Wilbur Wilde, Barry Crocker, Dean Martin, Victorian Police Cadets Skipping Team and the Big Brother cast of 2001 for just a start.

As well as wonderful regional jingles that remind you that major hubs of industry such as Toowoomba and Tasmania are still there.

The Coldest 100 knows the intersection of corporate thinking and opportunistic musicians…

After all, any dingbat can put together a list of good songs. It take a certain kind of goose like Andrew Sholl to put together 100 songs of Australian musical flotsam for 7 years in a row now.

The Coldest 100 is songs about Australia, sometimes they just don’t work out that well…

It will all be going down from 9am Saturday 22nd January on Twitter @Ozkitsch Andrew Sholl shows no sign of modifying his musical taste.

If this music irks you, you’re probably on the wrong website. But if you have that clip of Don Lane singing the theme from Hawaii 5-0, let us know so Andrew can put it in next year.
