Brisbane’s
Hey Geronimo have steadily developed into one of the country’s most innovative and quirky purveyors of indie music after releasing a string of radio singles over the last two years. The band is now proud to announce the release of new single ‘
Finale’ on Wednesday, 29
th November – the first track from their highly anticipated debut album (due 2015).
Recorded with acclaimed Australian producer
Steve Schram (
The Cat Empire,
San Cisco,
Eagle & The Worm), the new single is filled with trademark Hey Geronimo hooks, left-of-centre guitar riffs, and big harmonies. The track also features a cameo vocal performance from fellow Brisbanite,
Jen Boyce (
Ball Park Music).
‘
Finale’ follows on from Hey Geronimo’s previous EP releases -
Hey Geronimo (2012) and
Erring On The Side Of Awesome (2013) - which featured triple j high-rotation singles ‘
Why Don’t We Do Something’, ‘
Carbon Affair’ and ‘
Lazer Gun Show’ (7
th most played track on triple j in early 2014).
The band’s first two record releases achieved substantial local and international attention, including
major international syncs,
over one million combined Youtube views, a coveted inclusion in
triple j’s
Next Crop 2012 list and an entry into the US
CMJ College Radio Top 100 charts last year.
2013 was an action-packed year for the four-piece, with festival performances at Big Day Out, Homebake, Fat As Butter and Peats Ridge, national tours alongside
Deep Sea Arcade,
Pluto Jonze and 90s indie legends
Presidents of the USA – not to mention their ten-day tour of India in November as a featured Australian artist on the
NH7 Weekender festival.
Hey Geronimo will be touring throughout Australia in December 2014 to support the release of ‘Finale’.
