PREMIERE: Bob Evans - Happy Tears (Acoustic)

Staff Writer

Bob Evans Profile

Just days after dropping two new tracks from his forthcoming album, Car Boot Sale, we're chuffed to be premiering the video for an acoustic version of Bob Evan's Happy Tears right here at theMusic.com.au.

The new clip was recorded at his home studio and Jebediah frontman (real name Kevin Mitchell) revealed that the track was written for his youngest daughter, Ivy.

"On my last record I wrote a song for my firstborn [Ella], called Wonderful You and my youngest daughter has got Happy Tears, which kind of doesn’t reflect on her as well as Wonderful You," Mitchell said with a laugh.

The clip also gives fans an insight into the making of his new album and what inspired the material

Car Boot Sale is due for release on 17 June — click here for details on how to pre-order.
