Join Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musicians
People can ask it like small talk, but it can land like a verdict: “Where do you really come from?” I’m joined by Vika & Linda for a candid chat about how that question followed them through primary school in suburban Melbourne and eventually became the heart of their ninth studio album, Where Do I Come From? We unpack why the song speaks to identity and belonging, and why it still feels urgent in conversations about immigration, heritage, and what “Australian” looks like today.
We also go behind the scenes of the title track video, created with filmmaker Ky Belling, using archival footage and fan-submitted family photos that spotlight Australia’s migrant story in a way that feels intimate and unmistakably real. Vika & Linda share how decades of harmony work and backing vocals shaped their discipline, and why stepping forward to tell their own story now feels like the right time.
Along the way, we talk touring life (yes, a 46-date national tour), raising kids while living on the road, and one of the most high-pressure moments any singer can face: performing the national anthem live at the AFL. We also get into the songwriting themes that make this their most personal record yet, plus the collaborators who helped shape it, including Mark Seymour of Hunters & Collectors.
If you love Australian music podcasts, songwriter interviews, and stories that tell the truth, hit play, then subscribe, share the episode, and leave a review so more people can find it.
What are Vika & Linda up to at the moment? Let's find out!
