Angus & Julia Stone and The Temper Trap win big at the ARIA Awards

Sometimes, you just have to blow your own trumpet. I've been championing Sydney's Angus & Julia Stone and Melbourne's The Temper Trap for years now, so I was extra delighted that they came good at Sunday's ARIA Awards in Australia. The Stones picked up Album of the Year and Single of the Year, while The Temper Trap won Best Group and Most Popular Australian Single. Congratulations go out to them from their long term friends and fans and BobbySix.com.
