About this product

The second album from Brisbane-Meanjin indie-folk five-piece Full Power Happy Hour builds on the immense promise of their 2020 self-titled debut, adding a gorgeous tinge of alt-country elegance to their inherent feel-good jangle-pop foundations. This musical bed - assembled collaboratively allowing the band's true spirit to shine through - proves the perfect foil for frontperson Alex Campbell's compellingly personal lyrics documenting a tumultuous period in their life, an at times fraught journey recast into beautiful, eloquent art. The 10 songs veer from bright, upbeat toe-tappers to plaintive, introspective ballads, but flow together superbly due to the group's underlying camaraderie and fast-blossoming chemistry. At times reminiscent of forebears like The Go-Betweens and The Clean, with flourishes of Lucinda Williams and contemporaries like Big Thief and The Weather Station, Bit Of Brightness is 100% Full Power Happy Hour and one utterly beguiling aural experience.1 Well Again2 Bit of Brightness 3 Siblings 4 Measurements 5 Twenny Twenny One6 Joan7 Paper Boat8 Strong in Numbers 9 Fledgling10 You Can Be Cold

Liam Gerner - Liam Gerner And The Sunset Pushers   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

LIAM GERNER - InchLiam is an extraordinary musician. Both as a songwriter and performer Liam is a force to be reckoned with.Inch Ryan Bingham - Steeped in blues and country music, Liam Gerner left the Adelaide hills to try his luck in London. The young guitar slinger quickly made a strong impression and earned a crust opening for Paul Weller, Jason Isbell, Drive by Truckers, Paolo Nutini and many more. Liam then headed to the US, joined Texan country rocker Ryan Bingham's band and experienced frontline American roots music. Returning to Australia in 2014, Liam released his debut album 'Land Of No Roads', a s tartling collection of original songs he composed while touring with Bingham and cut with some of LA's finest players. - Since then Liam has been touring relentlessly throughout Australia, New Zealand and the USA. Now based in Melbourne, Liam has developed his songwriting, collaborated with local musicians and formed The Sunset Pushers, a band as fluid and soulful as his songs. - InchSince returning to Australia, much of my writing has been focussed around my connection to home,Inch says Liam. InchThat being the conflicting emotions and realities of what it means to be Australian. My blood has been reboiled by listening afresh to Midnight Oil, Archie Roach and The Cruel Sea while my mind's been expanded by the bush poetry of Don Watson, Neil Murray and Banjo Patterson.Inch - The result of all this touring, listening, collaborating and writing is a new album, Liam Gerner and The Sunset Pushers. Recorded in both Melbourne and Malibu, this album finds Liam sweating raw roots rock'n'roll. - InchWhat drives me is the storytelling, great musicianship, books, laughing, politics and matters of the heart.Inch says Liam. InchRecently I have got off my solo-donkey and collaborated as much as I can in the writing, recording and gigging process.Inch - Liam is steeped in both A

Party Dozen - Real Work   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2022 . Party Dozen are a duo from Sydney made up of Kirsty Tickle (saxophone) and Jonathan Boulet (percussion and sampler). Since forming in 2017, they have become renowned in Australia for their incendiary live shows, touring and playing with acts such as LIARS, Tropical F**k Storm, and Viagra Boys. Exactly what Party Dozen are is completely up to the listener. Doom. Jazz. Hardcore. Psychedelic. No-wave. Industrial. Although largely instrumental, their sets are punctuated by Kirsty's unique InchsingingInch style, screaming into the bell of her saxophone which itself goes through a bevy of effects pedals. Intensely independent in everything they do, the duo write, perform and record everything themselves. 2022 will see the return of Party Dozen, first in April with the 7Inch , Fat Hans Gone Mad, for the Sub Pop Singles Club, and then in July with their third album, The Real Work, with a new tag partner in New York's Temporary Residence Ltd. The Real Work succeeds in exploring new directions but also features some familiar Party Dozen touches. Perhaps most notable is the first-ever appearance of a guest other than Kirsty or Jonathan on a Party Dozen track, with Nick Cave ad-libbing a very memorable contribution to the album's second track, InchMacca The Mutt.Inch

Jim White - Where It Hits You   - VINYL LP

U.S. double vinyl LP pressing. 2012 album from the Alt-Country singer/songwriter, an album written for and about his wife, who left him half-way through the recording of the album. As is often the case with cathartic upheaval, sometimes tribulation forces buried treasure to the surface. This holds true with Where It Hits You, as rich and diverse a record as Jim has ever produced. From the brooding dreamlike opener, 'Chase the Dark Away,' to the wild eyed stomp of 'Here We Go,' to the Beefheartesque 'Infinite Mind,' to the Harvest-era Neil Young ringer 'My Brother's Keeper,' Where It Hits You finds Jim in full musical stride, effortlessly blending genres and approaches in ways that sometimes boggle the mind. But as White's work has shown over the arc of his career, despite the experimental extremes he recklessly embraces, there's always a cohesive, singular identity that holds the divergent influences together.
