What?
Naarm/Melbourne baroque-pop project Harvey Pink’s Flying Bathhouse releases the long anticipated LP, Everybody Digs Harvey Pink with accompanying launch show on March 15th at Cactus Room with support from local legends Field Maps and Al Speers.
Harvey has been an avid presence in Melbourne’s music scene, playing in groups such as 808s and Greatest Hits, Pink Harvest and Bathhouse. His debut solo record Flying Pretty Close to the Sun was released in 2022, which introduced his singular whirring up of indie-pop, psych, jazz and video game scores. The album was met with acclaim, and saw Harvey play shows across Melbourne and California.
Everybody Digs follows up where his debut left off, but finds the artist charting more vulnerable territory; each song a window into Harvey’s inner world of regret, anguish and revelation. “I never thought I’d share these songs with the world because they’re quite personal, but here we are with my private thoughts and feelings on display to everyone,” jokes Harvey. But he hopes the album is ultimately empowering in the way it turns melancholy into optimism. “I like to think the album’s raw moments of despair and stagnation manage to feel strong and courageous.”
Recorded by longtime collaborator Dylan Young (Way Dynamic, Cool Sounds, Snowy Band), the instrumentation of Everybody Digs is kaleidoscopic, moving through jazzy intervals, sweeping psych and theatrical 60s Californian pop. “Working with Harvey Pink proved to me the extent of his dedication, ability, and artistry. The record we produced together is a true example of this quality,” says Dylan.
