Struck by Lightning, Flooded Switchfoot Show, Still Making Music – with Sarah Goulds

Singer-songwriter Sarah Goulds from Toowoomba, QLD has lived through some unforgettable moments — an encounter with lightning to being the face of Easterfest. In this episode, we dive into the wild, wonderful, and sometimes chaotic journey of making music and finding joy in the process. Sarah and I reminisce about our Easterfest days, the year the festival went underwater, and what it meant to be part of that unique music community. She also opens up about juggling life as a mum of three, finishing her psychology degree, gigging every weekend, and stepping into self-producing her own music. Plus, she shares her worst gig ever (which, hilariously, I organized) — and reveals her hidden talent for incredible latte art. Grab a cuppa and settle in for a great episode of The Lo-fi Hang!

Ep #8- Zachary Martin – The Realities of Chasing Music Dreams

Ottawa’s own Zachary Martin joins me on The Lo-Fi Hang to talk about chasing music dreams, the struggles that come with it, and the moments that make it all worth it. It’s a real, funny, and grounded chat between two musicians trying to figure it out and keep the music alive. If you’ve ever played to an empty bar, questioned your calling, or laughed your way through the chaos of it all — you’ll feel right at home in this one. ☕ Grab a coffee, kick back, and hang with us.

Laughing Through Church, Marriage & Music with CoolTheKid

The Lo‑Fi Hang: Zeek Power (CoolTheKid) Join Mikhail Laxton and longtime friend Zeke Power as they laugh, reflect, and get real about music, fatherhood, marriage, and almost quitting. From wild stories of church days to the grind of being Indigenous Australian and South Sea Islander artists, this episode is funny, heartfelt, and unfiltered — a true look at life as a musician and friend.

Ep #6 - "Artists are losing their minds"

In this episode, I roll tape on an interview I did earlier this year where I open up about why I’m going back to DIY — and how, for the first time since my early 20s, I’ve re-evaluated what I actually want out of my music career. Now at 36, I’m finally finding a clearer sense of direction and peace of mind. I talk about how this shift has helped my mental health and why I’m genuinely concerned about the toll the pursuit of a music career takes on artists today. If you’ve ever felt lost chasing “the dream,” this one’s for you.

Ep #5 "The year everything fell apart OR fell in place"

This year tested everything — my patience, my faith, my career, and even my sense of direction. From getting kicked out of our house on the first day of summer, to moving with two kids, losing my job, traveling back to Australia, facing ghosts from my past, and trying to legally untangle my music career… it’s been chaos. But in the middle of all that mess, something unexpected happened — peace started to creep back in. In this episode of The Lofi Hang, I talk honestly about what it’s like when life falls apart, how we found a hidden blessing in a new home, and why maybe sometimes the universe tears things down just to build something better. Grab a coffee, take a breath, and hang with me — this one’s a real one.
