Fortuitous, really, to be listening to the new Feist album this morning — and then stumbling upon our very own Feist. Can’t claim too much unearthing talent here; unfortunately the unknown-to-me-before-now Ainslie Wills was discovered by Missy Higgins before us: Ainslie has been chosen to support Missy at the Palais later this month.
If ‘Green Coloured Grass’ is any indication — and it’s the only one I have right now — then Ainslie ought to outperform that increasingly super-slick lyric mangler.

Ainslie Wills self-titled EP, was the song that caught the attention of aria-award winning Missy Higgins who hand-picked the Melbourne-based chanteuse to support her on the Victorian shows of her national tour in May 2007 through Triple J unearthed.
