Music News - Sheep, Dog & Wolf Album Out Today
09 April 2021 - 0 Comments
Aotearoa’s Sheep, Dog & Wolf’s album marks a long awaited and triumphant return from a special talent who has suffered his fair share of setbacks. This software engineer by day; composer and learner of new instruments by night, delivers another stand out original quasi-classical masterpiece of post-modern work into the world. International media attention is circling back to the young composer including Clash Music and Wonderland after the seven year hiatus since 2014 Aotearoa Music Awards’ Critic's Choice Prize winning album, Egospect.
McBride’s debut full-length Egospect dropped in 2013 to critical acclaim. It followed the multi-instrumentalist’s Ablutophobia EP which had garnered praise from the likes of The Guardian (UK) and Vogue and propelled the then 17-year-old into the spotlight. Instead of capitalising on the reviews by rushing overseas to tour, he studied composition in Wellington where he realised the equal importance of having an emotional connection to songwriting over just an intellectual concept. When he did accept an offer to tour Europe, it inspired him to make an album to take on the road, and Egospect was born. It saw him win the Critics’ Choice Prize at the New Zealand Music Awards and make the shortlist at 2014’s Taite Prize (won that year by Lorde). “I’m still really proud of that record,” McBride notes. “But I’ve moved on since.”
