Upcoming kiwi act Earth Tiger have today announced their debut album; Holiday, to be released October 7 via Move The Crowd and Warner Music NZ. The album is preceded by the release of their latest single and music video, Lucky Ones.
Earth Tiger was dreamed up around a campfire on a Christmas Eve in New Zealand, when friends Cruz Mathews, a songwriter fresh out of the Gold-selling group Kidz In Space, and Tom Taylor, decided to turn their shared passion for ‘90s and ‘00s hip hop into an musical collaboration. The two enlisted the help of friend and producer Alex Wildwood (The Shakes) and began to engage in a series of week-long recording sessions at exotic locales throughout the East Coast of Australia. They eventually set up in a remote house in the rain forest of Byron Bay to put together what would become their debut album, Holiday.
A collection of tracks inspired by the sights, sounds and experiences they soaked up during their travels, Earth Tiger’s debut album Holiday takes musical inspiration from the stylings of modern rock legends, lyrical pioneers and beat masters such as The Black Keys, Gorillaz, Mac Miller, The Pharcyde and Pharrell Williams. Holiday was mixed and mastered by Nathan Sowter at La Petite Maison Studios in Tauranga.
To celebrate the announce of their debut album, Earth Tiger have today released the latest single off the album, Lucky Ones, along with a moving music video which captures the song’s message of being young, wild and free.
