Album title? Chords
Where did the title of your new album come from? It came from thinking about the thing that brings all the electricity into my life. When I think of Chords, I get blue laser beams with a pink outer.
How many releases do you have now? I have five albums now. You know Slim Dusty released over 100 albums... the first person ever. That's the way.
How long did it take to write/record? Two years from start to finish, but that was just a money thing really... just raising the funds to get into a recording-type situation takes a whole lot of time.
Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? Well, this was the first time in ten years that I have recorded in an actual studio. They are wonderful places, just fantasy — whole facilities built entirely to capture music in the best possible way.
What's your favourite song on it? Track three, The Rambler... My grandfather died last year, a shit time... He could really dance, each move choreographed.
Will you do anything differently next time? I would hope I would definitely do it quicker, but we had a lot of fun making it, so I'll work out a way to keep our same team together.
When and where is your launch/next gig? Adelaide — Crown & Sceptre Hotel, 25 Nov. Sydney — The Bearded Tit, 5 Dec. Brisbane — The Triffid, 17 Jan.
