FALLON CUSH

STRANGER THINGS HAVE HAPPENED

“The witches both meant well, as they often do…”

Stranger Things Have Happened, the new album from Sydney’s Fallon Cush is an album that rings loud and clear with a seemingly endless supply of melodies that cascade from the speakers in a near-perfect blend of indie rock and alt-country. Recorded and mixed by Josh Schuberth at Endomusia Studios, Blue Mountains, NSW, the album finds the band drawing from an iconic set of classic influences that recall The Byrds and Tom Petty blended seamlessly with classic rock and astute pop-leaning songwriting that draws from the melodic nous of Ryan Adams, Wilco, and The Jayhawks.

Right across the album singer-songwriter, Steve Smith takes a magnifying glass to people and the point of interaction – where things can gel or fall apart. Lead single ‘The Key’ finds him pondering the sweet mystery of a strong relationship while ‘Sleep Her Away’ is a contender for one of Smith’s finest choruses. It soars with that kind of jubilant melancholy that requires a special tone and phrasing. In contrast, ‘Yarraman’ strips things back to a skeletal country music canvas while ‘Benny’ allows the band to stretch out, dipping their toes into glorious yacht rock waters.

The interplay and strength of all the players on the album can clearly be heard. Whether it’s the versatility and nuance of guitarist Casey Atkins, the balance and drive of the rhythm section of Pete Marley and Russell Crawford, Tim Byron’s lush keyboards or the tender ache of Suzy Goodwin’s backing vocals, they’re all integral elements to the beautiful swing and sway of this new set of songs.
