IMMIGRANT UNION – ” Anyway “
Posted: October 30, 2014 in MUSICTags: Australian, Country, Immigrant Union, Melbourne, Psych Folk, The Dandy Warhols
Immigrant Union are a psychedelic folk band from Melbourne Australia featuring Brent DeBoer from The Dandy Warhols. Like Spiritualized being baptised in a river of Creedence Clearwater.
Immigrant Union’s started with a few drinks. And… maybe a few dozen more drinks. The story got a little more interesting when the duo started turning simple chords and melodies into completed songs. And then polished recordings of those songs.
In the summer of 2004 when Brent DeBoer of The Dandy Warhols was killing some time in Australia and had a chance meeting with Melbourne’s Bob Harrow. They acquired the talented vocalist and keyboard player, Peter Lubulwa, and the band quickly planted its roots in alt-country-folk, bound by a communal love for classic rock and roll.
Countless shows later, Immigrant Union have now supported Noel Gallagher, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Dead Meadow and toured their own headline shows, the band have naturally progressed into the next chapter of their story: realising their second album, and keeping their eyes fixed on the international touring circuit ahead.
Immigrant Union’s upcoming album is a shift from previous recordings – moving away from the country end of the sound spectrum, they approached their second record with a desire to produce a more layered, trippier sound, the band went literally to the farthest reaches of the earth: to Brent’s hometown in Portland, Oregon and to Altona on the outskirts of Melbourne, Australia.
With singles coming out in the US from June, Immigrant Union will be releasing ‘Anyway’ in September 2014 followed by appearances at The Americana Music Festival in Nashville in September and a national tour of the USA in October.
