HOLLOW EVERDAZE –Β “STILL TICKING”
[SINGLE] (2016)
Independent
November 15, 2016
Drenched in reverbed lushness, Hollow Everdaze have been reimagining psychedelic pop since they began in 2007 by lead vocalist, Dan BaulchΒ and bassist, Jackson Kay in their small town hometown of Bacchus Marsh in Western Victoria.
Having spent the last year working on the release of their debut full-length album, recorded by rising Melbourne producer,Β John LeeΒ (known for his work with Beaches, Lost Animal, The Ocean Party),Β mastered byΒ David WalkerΒ (NUN, Beaches, GOAT, Jen Cloher) at Stepford Audio, and with video and art collaborations fromΒ James Thomson, Niv Bavarsky and Micheal Olivo,Β the band are set to unveil their newest workΒ to the world.
Debut single and title-track, “Still Ticking” is soaked in woozy twang and Myles Andersonβs signature swooning violin.Β ItΒ perfectly captures the Australian indie rock ensembleβs delicate melodic layering, while itΒ reintroduces frontman Daniel Baulchβs raspy romanticism and Sixties-style craftsmanship.
Hollow Everdaze capture the urgency of a band who βafter settling into their current five-piece line-up β have traced their own weird, divergent path through the haunted backwoods of song-writing. It shows through in their stunning debut EP, released in 2013 whichΒ received rave reviews from Australiaβs most highly respected journalists and earned them support spots for international artists including The War On Drugs (US), Unknown Mortal Orchestra (NZ) and Wavves (US), plus saw them join American Football (US) on their East Coast tour of Australia in 2015.
