QUIVERS’ life-damaged but hopeful jangle pop has returned with a long-anticipated second album, Golden Doubt.
After these strange few years of cancelled Australian and overseas tours (including their return to the US where they were due to again play for KEXP in Seattle), time and trouble have only sharpened this band's approach that guitar pop can be group therapy, but still a very good time.
Out June 11th on Spunk Records (and Ba Da Bing in the USA/Bobo Integral everywhere else), this album is full of the driving rhythms and harmony driven pop that comes most naturally to Quivers. Musically it plays with the ghosts of 80s Australian guitar bands and the spirit of R.E.M. and Teenage Fanclub, but with a lyrical directness not many bands commit to.
HANNAH BLACKBURN is one of our favourite artists and sings on our new record! Her song 'Tiny Car' is all time.
Hannah uses music as a tool to unpick and understand the world. Hannah has been mapping out her debut album, with the goal to narrate her journey as a woman, navigating both internal and external influences. Expect this personal voyage to suggest musical influence of heroes Margaret Glaspy, Waxahatchee, Orville Peck, War On Drugs, and local lionhearts Quivers (!), David M. Western, and Mimi Gilbert.
