Hidden Shoal Recordings Release New Toby Richardson Single .

Nov. 21, 2007 - PRLog -- The Australian music label, Hidden Shoal Recordings today announced the release of the single ‘Booragoon Lagoon’ by Australian lo-fi rock magician Toby Richardson.

‘Booragoon Lagoon’ sees Toby Richardson in psychedelic art-rock beach music mode. In his inimitable lo-fi bent rock stylings Richardson has produced an indie rock n roll gem.

It’s impossible to not fall in love with this song, a wonky fist-in-the-air anthem that blends the catchy attack of The Kinks with the bluesy skronk of Captain Beefheart.

In parts sounding like the B-52’s making out with Polvo in an acid filled spa, ‘Booragoon Lagoon’ is laden with warped hooks winding through beats that speak direct to your dancing parts. It is a mad collision, a rock n roll car crash at an Elvis Presley after party.

Richardson has managed to strip the skin off classic rock n roll, re-cover it in fur, jewels and wire and ride it to through a casino. The unbridled and irrepressible feel of this song is hard to deny.

‘Booragoon Lagoon’ is the first single to be lifted from Toby Richardsons forthcoming full length Evergreen to be released through Hidden Shoal Recordings early 2008.
‘Booragoon Lagoon’ is available now exclusively from the HSR Store.

Toby Richardson is a 30 something Perth resident, living in the inner northern suburbs and recording his rock and roll ideas and dreams from the comfort of home. He has recorded two albums of material as a solo artist and is currently recording songs for a Hidden Shoal EP release. Toby also recorded as part of 90’s Perth band Mustang!, releasing the EP “Jacuzzi International Presents Mustang!” through Survival Records in 1994.

Toby’s debut ep “Golden Days” is a 6 track lo-fi rock opus. With all the playful charm of Robert Pollard and the wirey choreography of Pavement, the EP removes all pretension and carves its own special shape into the indie rock landscape. “Golden Days” features the crackerjack single, “It Makes the Air Sound Better”.

Hidden Shoal Recordings current catalogue includes releases that slip between the edges of experimental ambient work, shoegazing pop, post-rock and indie rock. The label has earned a reputation for releasing exciting and engaging new independent music that is not bound by genre or style.
