* Sony Music Australia has leaked details of two upcoming albums. The first is the new album by singer Brandi Carlile, entitled ‘Give Up The Ghost’. The new album, set for release on October 02, features collaborations with Elton John and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers.
* The other album they’ve released sketchy details about (and which will no doubt raise excitement overseas) is the forthcoming album by former X Factor UK winner Leona Lewis. Leona’s new album is called ‘Echo’ and is set for an Australian release on November 13. The album’s first single will be sent to media next month.
* Last year’s X Factor UK winner Alexandra Burke, meanwhile, will release her debut album in Britain on October 26. It’s proceeded by a single called ‘Bad Boys’ which is set for release two weeks prior.
* The ARIA Hall Of Fame ceremony, held in Melbourne tomorrow night, will be hosted by Sydney radio duo Jonathon Coleman and Ian Rogerson, better known as ‘Jono & Dano’.
* Most people would know him from Australian Idol, but mesmerising local performer Bobby Flynn is heading to Melbourne to play a residency every Thursday night in September at the city’s Blue Diamond bar. A “night of unforgettable pleasure” is promised. Ooo-er!
* Speaking of Melbourne, the city saw a party unlike anything it has seen before when international dance party Sensation hit the southern capital last new years eve. The Ocean Of White returns in 2009 to Etihad Stadium (formerly Telstra Dome) with tickets on sale in the coming weeks.
* UK girl group The Saturdays have unveiled the video for their ace new single ‘Forever Is Over’. It’s the first single to be lifted from the girls’ forthcoming second album. Sadly, due to ‘copyright restrictions’, the video is unavailable to view in Australia.
* Visiting jazz chanteuse Melody Gardot is in Australia for two concerts, one each in Sydney and Melbourne. But the singer has tweeted that she’s particularly enamored with the Harbour City.
* And according to her TWITTER page, Mandy Moore is particularly fond of Mondays and chocolate biscuits!

It’s Brandi Carlile third album, not her debut.
And she’s American, not Australian. Just a heads up.

Hehe – Thanks for the info! Can’t wait to hear the new Alexandra Burke track! And the new Saturdays piece!

Alexandra’s single was played on Chris Moyle yesterday and it sounds okay, but it’s no ‘Bleeding Love’. I doubt it’d be a great hit outside the UK.
