In this episode of The Mixtape, we’re joined by Trent, frontman of fiery Australian punk band Last Quokka, to talk all things music, protest, and punk passion. With the band’s latest album Red Dirt making waves, Trent dives into the raw, politically charged energy that fuels their sound.
We unpack the band’s involvement in Disrupt Burrup Hub, a powerful environmental movement challenging fossil fuel expansion in Western Australia. From activism on the frontlines to the realities of rising living costs (yes, even the price of a capsicum gets a mention), Trent shares how music and message collide in the punk scene today.
As always, we explore the music that shaped our guest’s journey—Trent builds his imaginary six-track mixtape, revealing the songs that inspired him as an artist and activist.
🎶 This episode is a bold, insightful listen that blends punk rock, protest, and personal stories—from the studio to the streets.
