YOUNG, GIFTED & BROKE PRESENT…
HOME BREW RELEASE DEBUT ALBUM FRIDAY 4 MAY AND CELEBRATE WITH 48-HOUR ALBUM RELEASE PARTY IN OLD BROTHEL.
If you dont know Home Brew - ask John Key or The University of Auckland or watch the EPK.
Despite what these people might tell you about them being burdens on society, or advocates for drug dependency, you gotta respect the integrity of their independence and the diligence of their work ethic. In the last year theyve been involved in three 5 star releases (At Peace , Max Marx , Last Week ), nominated for the Vodafone Critics Choice Award, impregnated Petra Bagust and shaped the rules of the NZ Music Industry without a marketing director or legally recognized source of income.
Now, after three years of dedication and benefit fraud, theyve finally completed a piece of work good enough to move them out of their Mums place; a debut double album conceptualized by the balance of lifes extremities. One side, light . The other, dark . A dichotomy of methadone and melancholy. Infinity and finality. Its a record that looks back at Saturdays moment of madness through Sundays moment of clarity. Featuring the talents of such people as Chip Mathews (Opensouls), Christoph El Truento (Wonderful Noise) and Hollie Smith (Don McGlashans friend) its their most mature, self reflective, existential piece of work to date. So to celebrate it, theyre throwing a party in an old brothel.
