Living together in Newport on the Northern Beaches of Sydney Australia, brother and sister Angus and Julia Stone are making waves with their music.

Music with grace, music that says a lot without trying to. Angus & Julia Stone have just released their first EP entitled "Chocolates & Cigarettes" which is available via their website and at any of their gigs. The band now consists of Angus & Julia Stone both on guitar, special guest bass players and Mitchell Connelly (ex The Beautiful Girls) who provides the backbone of the band with drums and percussion. Mitch is also an incredible photographer and the official photographer for the band. With rapidly growing popularity, playing venues all over Sydney, including supports for artists,The Beautiful Girls, Sophie Koh, Alex Lloyd and upcoming gigs with Shane Nicholson plus playing Festivals such as 'Peats Ridge Festival' and 'The Great Escape' Festival, the pair are an exciting act to look out for. Growing up listening to music, and then traveling through South America together, were all foundations for the musical experience of Angus and Julia Stone.

Their music is a pure sound that captures the freedom, fear and beauty of life in a musically clear and simple way. The iconic Record store Rough Trade in London has made comparisons to Damien Rice, Portishead, Corrine Bailey Rae and Paul Simon. With honest, emotive lyrics, beautiful harmonies, melodic guitars Angus and Julia Stone' are an act not to miss, the unspoken connection, that comes only with the history of family, makes Angus and Julia Stone' a joy to watch, and a delight to listen to.
