Exclusive stream + tour announce: DAVEY LANE

Words by Scenewave Australia - Published on September 22, 2014

I recently posted up Komarov, the first single from Davey Lane’s forthcoming solo album. You probably know Davey as the brilliant guitarist from Australian rock legends You Am I (and there’s more info about him in that Komarov link,) but this is his first solo album. Atonally Young is the result of a highly successful crowdfunding campaign, and is set to be released on October 3.

Davey has also announced a short run of highly-anticipated shows in support of the album, starting on October 30 in Ballarat. More details below.

Anyway, we’ve got something really special for you today: an exclusive stream of another song from the new album. It showcases a completely different side of Davey, and his album, than the dazzling psychedelia of Komarov.

A Lesson in Cause and Effect has a distinctly vintage sound, and really showcases Davey’s rich vocal tone. Delayed chords, solid beats and gorgeous backing vocals create a sentimental, almost shoegaze soundscape. There’s some really beautiful guitar work at hand here (obviously,) and you pick up on something new with each listen – a high-octave lick here, a fuzzed-out strum there.

Listen here:

Helping Davey out on the album are friends and bandmates Bret Wolfenden and Eagle & The Worm’s James Fleming. Produced by Tony Buchen (Megan Washington, The Preatures, Jeremy Neale,) you know he’s in good hands.
