COACH

 
 

Coach is a three-piece band from Auckland comprised of Abraham Kunin (guitar/vocals), Jonathan Burgess (double bass/vocals) and Todd Beeby (drums/vocals). Their music references elements of Trinity Roots, My Bloody Valentine and Dirty Three but the sound is wholly their own.

Coach released their debut E.P. in 2010 and followed up with the full-length album Family Tree in August 2012. Family Tree is a sophisticated and refined collection that strikes the listener immediately with its depth, cohesiveness and kaleidoscopicemotion.

The Coach catalogue has grown its next branch with their latest E.P. Songs For Michelle.

Family Tree was well known for its dark, varied pop, woven through interludes of heavier rock and crooning vocal harmonies in washes of falsetto settling over double bass, drums and chiming electric guitar. The three tracks on Songs For Michelle continue in a dense, gothic, 90s inspired direction and expand on the groups heavier - in parts droning - tone.

'A fuzzy netherworld between jazz and rock, retro and modern, powerful and fragile' - Marty Duda, 13th Floor

'Dreamy, dark, spacious pop music of the kind that turns thoughts inward' - Lydia Jenkin, NZ Herald

Written by Harry and produced by Auckland-based producer William Henderson, the captivating video was directed by Auckland talent Connor Pritchard, thanks to funding by NZ On Air, and will be dropping next week.

Danny McCrum has just released the second single from his forthcoming album ‘Hustle Bustle’, due for release in September 2019. ‘Don’t Be Late’ serves as both a warning and a comfort. A warning to treat each other better and make better decisions as a society. Then, for those who might feel overwhelmed by current events, the chorus offers encouragement: 'Don’t be late, don’t lose faith, don’t be changed, don’t be erased.’ The song is rich with melodies and groove, layered with harmonies, offset by unconventional drum patterns and held together by a solid bass line. Danny delivers a well-crafted song with accessible hooks, poignant emotion and an upbeat feel. Hustle Bustle will be Danny’s fourth album. ‘Don’t Be Late’ is available on Bandcamp, iTunes, Spotify, Apple Music and most other streaming platforms.
