Bree Tranter, formerly of combustible sensations The Middle East, dropped her long-awaited solo album Another Night on Earth last week, and has sent along an assortment of shots that give a great insight into just how much time and effort can go into the making of an album.
Bree and her rather large backing band – made up of Matt Corby, Mike Haydon, Joseph Ireland, Emma Neurath, Benson Gunner and Andy Campbell have been toiling away in the studio as they wrote and recorded the album. You can hear Bree Playing the Rhodes Piano in the Linear Recording Studio in Sydney. We recorded all the live band songs to tape, which was cool. Featuring Andy Cambpell (aka Ace Romeo) shredding on the guitar, Michael Haydon on drums, and Matt Corby on bass, Benson Gunner on guitar, This man really knows how to follow my lead vocal. I love his tones, guitar licks, and just having him around . On the saxophone is Emma Nuerath. She is a boss. She played saxophone on ‘Your Rhythm’, ‘Deja-Vu’ and ‘Tuesday Fresh Cuts’. I love her to death. We had three days to record five live band songs and then, in that time, overdub – saxophone, synths, organ, flutes, vocals, vibraphone, shredding solo lines on electric guitar, and some acoustic guitar parts.
Bree’s latest single ‘Tuesday’s Fresh Cuts’ is below, and if you like what you hear Another Night on Earth is available 24th June,
the leading single from the debut solo album ‘Another Night on Earth’ available June 24th.
