I hope you are all enjoying a relaxing Easter holiday. I was wondering these days to play during the last term some songs sang by Australian singers to my FCE and pre- FCE students just to show them different English accents. They are already familiar with the USA accent and I would like to show them the Australian accent. The point is that I do not know any latest hit that would catch on them, cos they are quite demanding when listening to songs. This activity would be good for both my students and me.

 

Thanks in advance and keep on making the best of your Easter holidays!!!

 

Some of our current top artists include:

 

Casey Chambers

Guy Sebastian

Jet

Spiderbait

Shannon Noll

Kylie Minogue (British accent)

Paulini

Delta Goodram

The John Butler Trio

 

If you want to listen to some VERY Australian accents, county music singers would probably be the most obvious:

John Williamson - country music

Slim Dusty - old style country music

Sara Storer

Lee Kernaghan

Troy Cassar-Daley

The McClymonts

 

Hope this helps

 

 

 

Goodluck!
