Music News - Stormporter - Bringing Sparkle, Shimmer and Shine to NZ Music Month
01 May 2014 - 0 Comments
Hot on the heels of their soulful debut single, Find Yourself, and fresh off the back of a hugely successful Launch/Release Show in March, Stormporter are out to bring some Sparkle, Shimmer and Shine to NZ Music Month, when they release their eagerly awaited 2nd single.
Produced by Kiwi legend, Ben King (Goldenhorse, Grand Rapids) - known for his uncanny ability to find the heart of a pop song - Stormporter will be dropping this shiny new, Indie pop-rock gem smack bang in the middle of NZ Music Month. Like it’s predecessor, Sparkle Shimmer Shine will no doubt charm it’s way onto radio airwaves and into the ears and hearts of Kiwi music lovers.
The Stormporter boys, Tim Allen and Tones Thorburn - two storytelling Brits who now call NZ home - were in mighty fine company when tracking the song at The Lab studio. Matthias Jordan (Pluto, Gin Wigmore) brings sparkling piano melody dished up with huge Hammond-driven choruses - fast becoming a staple diet of Stormporter’s signature sound. The pomp and fanfare of trumpet - Haddon Smith (The Checks, Ruby Frost, Annah Mac) - stirs up emotion, while the drums of Adam Tobeck (Jesse Sheehan) combined with Ben King’s groovin’ bass, lay down a solid foundation for Tim Allen’s sweet, heartfelt vocal delivery. Tones’ shimmering signature guitar riffing once again shines through, and the ridiculously uplifting choruses are sure to brighten and lighten your day, as you hum and sing along with carefree abandon.
Stormporter fans and listeners will be left hungering for an encore; with upcoming live shows soon to be announced plus, news of a debut EP in the planning, that hunger will no doubt soon be satisfied.
It won’t be long before this perfect storm moves off-shore onto the global stage. The long range forecast is for more musical storms; otherwise fine.
