STONE ROLLING SOLO

He had the Australian record buying public in the palm of his hands as part of brother sister duo Angus & Julia Stone, but now Angus is officially going it alone, with his brand new solo single ‘Broken Brights’ being serviced to radio earlier today.
It’s the lead track from a forthcoming album project, which is due to drop later in the year and Angus is undoubtedly excited about the prospect of sharing the new tunes with his fans.
“These writings from the record are of great shift for me in the story telling of these past four years of traveling,” he said in a statement accompanying the track’s release. “Playing this record live is going to be quite a euphoric walk for me. I’m ready at the end of the year to get a rucksack together with a few well needed treasures & a bunch of new n old friends & get to taking off down the road throwing our hats to the wind.”
Since the success of the album ‘Down The Way’ (which hit the top spot on the ARIA albums chart back in 2010), its ensuing singles and tour schedules, Angus has been holed up in cabins across Europe and Australia laying down tracks for the new solo offering, but he’s currently settled in a wood cabin in the heart of the Indian countryside.
“The songs i had chosen for this record i wanted to be tracked on tape. So with this in mind, we booked the lodgings with excess rolls so we could let the songs unravel for the very first time & let the tape roll. Listening back, most of the songs that we picked were first takes from the day’s harvest in the studio. I am real happy it ended up that way for the record.”
As mentioned, the as yet untitled album is slated to drop later in the year.
