Husky to play Hare & Hounds
Husky’s live show is crafted to take audiences on a journey through their captivating songs, earning the Australian quartet critically praise for their “lush…warm and evocative” (Sydney Morning Herald) and “outstanding” (Beat Magazine) performances. After winning Triple J Unearthed, the band continues to reach new heights, winning hearts with every sold-out show around the country. Recent performance highlights include supporting Devandra Banhart, Noah and the Whale, Kimbra, Jinja Safari and Gotye.
Husky’s debut album, ‘Forever So’, is a full-realized, long-playing album that holds up start-to-finish, from catchy opener ‘Tidal Wave’ with its hum-along harmonies and surprise psychedelic midsection, to the understated, intertwined brass parts that conclude ‘Farewell (in 3 Parts).’ In the syncopated rhythms of ‘Hundred Dollar Suit’ or the reverberating piano strings and laid back bass that underpin The Woods’ you can sense fingers moving over instruments and lungs giving breath to voices, the unfolding of ephemeral ideas into fresh yet fully-realized songs taking forth before your very ears.
“Nick Drake-esque fairytale delivered with full indie-orchestration” – Rolling Stone
“One gets the feeling from Husky’s swiftly rising popularity, that this is only the beginning.” – Noise 11
Husky’s anticipated debut album ‘Forever So’ will be released 21st October through Sub Pop.
They play Venue 1 at Hare & Hounds Birmingham on Wednesday 12th September 2012, presented by Birmingham Promoters & Live Nation. Tickets available here.
