What do The Monkees, The Rolling Stones and Adelaide's hip hop underground have in common?

They've all played a part in transforming Tom Gaynor into Allday.

Having re-established himself in Melbourne after chasing success in L.A., Allday now celebrates a whole new creative chapter with his defining fourth album, Drinking With My Smoking Friends.

Allday talks about his early influences, life growing up 'hood adjacent' and more.
