"You have to be able to tie your own turban, read dreams, swim naked and fly a magic carpet"

The School of Radiant Living are Georgia, Harriet, Marian and Amy. Four babes in a band based in Melbourne (via New Zealand).

Their blog pretty much sums up their style, but we like to describe it as  the sound of dancing to Fleetwood Mac in the dessert.

We handed them a disposable camera before they headed out on a rather dramatic visit to the creek ...

What induction pranks do you have to pass to enter the School of Radiant Living?

Best mixtape story?

When Amy was a 11 she made a mix tape for Anthony Keidis and sent it to him in the post. The cover of it was a photo copy picture of his native american eagel tattoo. She can't remember all the tracks she put on but Killing in The Name Of' by Rage Against The Machine was definitely on there.

If you could crank up one song out into the Australian bush what would it be and why?

The Water Song by The Incredible String Band. It's a song celebrating the amazement and beauty of water (it even has the sounds of water as a solo). We think there are a few dear old gum trees in the bush who could really relate to the sentiment of that song.

Picnic at Hanging Rock VS  The Year My Voice Broke?

The Year My Voice Broke because it's about love and The School of Radiant Living is all about that. Having said that we are also all about life's mystery so maybe Picnic at Hanging Rock. In evey yin there is a yang.
