Hailing from Melbourne, Australia, Augie March is a band poised to win over a new continent–a feat already accomplished in their native land.

(For those of you who are mate-less, that’s the Australian equivalent of a Grammy.) Click the “play” button below to hear Julia Clarke’s profile of the album.
