Alpine set to release debut album: Music News

On Friday 10th of August Melbourne’s own Alpine are set to release their bold and twinkling debut album,  A is For Alpine.  A collection of vibrant songs that shimmer and shine with colourful harmonies and inventive melodies, A Is For Alpine is, according to co-front-woman Pheobe Baker, a document of the band’s “innocent and not so innocent explorations through our early-twenty-something emotions.”

“It’s an introduction to us,” Ryan Lamb goes on to say. “We wanted to represent the different sides of our music, so there’s some sad moments, some dancey moments, some rocking out, and lots of harmonies. I think it’s a much more fun record than people will expect.”

The album was recorded out of Melbourne in the gentle bush surrounds of rural Gisborne, with producer Dann Hume (Lisa Mitchell, SURES) and has already spawned two glorious singles including the tremendously successful HANDS and iridescent new single GASOLINE, which was mixed by UK’s Jeremy Wheatley (U2, Empire of the Sun, Goldfrap) listen here

Don’t miss your chance to see the band when they head to your town this August and September.
