Feature: Cousin Tony’s Brand New Firebird - Rosewater Crocodile
Built on a bed of rich sounds and lyrical nuance, Cousin Tony’s New Firebird present their most cohesive collection of stories and music to date with their fourth full-length project, Rosewater Crocodile.
Featuring singles ‘My Ghost & Its Crawling’, ‘Rosewater’ and ‘Mercury Rising’; the album thrives on its ability to weave brooding, emotional moments, with vibrant musicality and heart.
The album goes on to explore themes such as the way we relate to one another, through to the mysteries of the human condition (‘Flee The Cage’, ‘Crocodile’, ‘Mercury Rising’).
Horns and strings blend together with warm textural rhythms from bass and guitar; striking backing vocals buoy the lead vocals of Lachlan Rose, whose tone offers a yearning perspective as he explores the above themes with intimacy and richness.
