Bakelite Radio

Bakelite Radio is an Australian group that emerged in the early 2000s as an acoustic-oriented project blending country and R&B influences. Active as a live act from 2001 to 2007, the ensemble carved out a distinctive niche by emphasizing organic instrumentation and blues-rooted sensibilities within their songwriting approach.

The group released four studio albums across their career: *Bakelite Radio Volume II* (2003), *Volume III* (2004), *Volume IV* (2007), and *Volume I* (2009). Their catalog reflects a commitment to preserving the spirit and richness of blues traditions while exploring contemporary acoustic arrangements, establishing them as a notable presence in Australia’s alternative music landscape during that era.
