To celebrate the release of their newest album, Tim and David speak to the frontman of Adelaide based, The Violets, to uncover what it is like to come back to a passion project after years of hibernation. Matt discusses the changes in the music industry today, the story of how the band reformed and uncovers some truths about how musicians tick. This episode features the first and final songs from The Violet's New Album, including "Sideways" to begin, and "Here I Am" to finish. The new album details can be found below:From the day they first formed in Adelaide, Australia back in 1990, The Violets were an enigma. Created from a fusion of shimmering guitar lines, sonic abstraction and an almost cinematic vision, they smashed together light and dark and made beautiful agony dance cheek-to-cheek with pretty mystery. 2022 sees The Violets continue their idiosyncratic brand of alt-rock adventure, with a new album. Smoke, Mirrors & other half-truths is another mysterious and adventurous chapter. It brings the sound of The Violets into the 21st century.
