boogie & psych-garage sound from Australia
Musk Hill is the upcoming debut full-length from Melbourne’s The Baudelaires. Stomping through the dreamy, substance-induced house-party haze of their previous EP Be a Baudelaire! (2014), the new album delves into the crunchin‘ boogie of psych-garage territory. Recorded over 3 days on a property of the same name on the Mornington Peninsula, Musk Hill was mixed by Baudelaire’s own Grischa Zahren and mastered by Melbourne music legend Mikey Young. Having toured South Australia, Queensland and New South Wales on several occasions, been invited to play such festivals as Chopped Rod and Custom, Happy Wanderer, Rolling Stone Live Lodge and shared the stage with the likes of Cosmic Psychos, Cash Savage and the Last Drinks, King Salami and the Cumberland 3 (UK), Peep Tempel and more, The Baudelaires are eager for their album’s release and to hit the road again. Two singles already lifted from the album; Colour Mary and Foxglove, have both received rotation on community radio in Melbourne, interstate and overseas. The following two singles will be released simultaneously in accordance with the release of the album: the thumping Side B opener Bomber Dan, as well as the loaded slow-burning album closer Dweller, which will include a mind-altering film clip created by Tobias Willis. The Baudelaires will be dropping Musk Hill on November 4th through Off The Hip and their own Colourtone Records. The band will be in tour across Europe for the second time in may/june 2018 to promote the new album!
