Digital FORT: Methyl Ethel’s “Castigat Ridendo Mores” gets its debut in the Western Australia bush

Perth-based art rock group Methyl Ethel will release a new EP, Hurts To Laugh, on April 10, but “Castigat Ridendo Mores” won’t appear on the band’s latest release. The standalone single is getting its world premiere at the top of the page for Digital FORT, courtesy of a live performance that lead singer Jake Webb recorded before and after sunset in the Western Australian bush this past weekend.

Digital FORT is a two-day event bringing together over 100 artists to help raise money for those hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. To find a full list of charities, funds, and resources we’re highlighting throughout FORT, click here.
