Hail to the Chief

Everyone digs a little stoner-swirl jam-psych. And because everyone digs a little stoner-swirl jam-psych, everyone digs a little Lurch & Chief. Featuring five manly men and one womanly woman, the band recently announced a little tour in support of their brand-spanking new EP, Breathe. For those interested in the recording process, you can have a read of their journal over at lcepjournal.tumblr.com. Here is a snippet. “Breathe proved to be difficult, with my vocals not working as well as I had hoped. So I went through a brainstorming and recording phase for an hour, getting as many new melodies and harmonies down as possible. Tomorrow morning I will have to work my way through the entire mess of sound. What a time that will be … Lil did incredibly well with today’s recording session. She only has her vocals on Made Me Use to finish today. She rolled Breathe over in six takes. All of which are possible contenders for the final vocal track. Super solid effort … I am mentally almost at my limit with the lack of sleep and the 12 hour days. It’s been the best; however, I’m starting to lose my mind.” The Workers Club, Geelong – May 8; The Karova, Ballarat – May 14; and The Loft, Warrnambool – May 16. [Photo: Danny Cohen]
