As another Festival season comes to an end, it’s a good time to reflect on some of the amazing shows and musicians that have graced the stages and live music venues across Melbourne. Before you hang up your dancing shoes and festival hats, though, it’s not all bad news.
After hugely successful shows at The St Kilda Festival, The Australian Blues festival, Wangarratta Jazz Festival and Beers By The Bay Festival, Melbourne neo soul/funk band Soul Safari have announced the release of their Live @ Bar Open series, including 4 video clips and a full length live EP. The series is dedicated to keeping the summer vibe alive and inviting fans to enjoy part of what has been a stellar year for Soul Safari!
“We wanted to offer our fans the opportunity to enjoy our music, un edited and un mixed, so they can really get a feel for what essentially we are all about, live shows!” lead singer Lisa Faithfull explains. “We’re heading into the studio over winter to record our new album and we thought it’d be great if we could keep the vibe and energy of summer going! A lot of (the band’s) favourite albums are live albums, like D’Angelo’s Desk Tape Recordings, that capture that amzaing energy of live music. It’s a huge risk to take releasing something unproduced, but we think it’s a great way to really connect with our fans”
The Live @ Bar Open EP features some of Soul Safari’s older tracks as well as new ones that will be on their upcoming album, including their latest single The Weather. You can catch the guys live for the official launch of the EP on Friday April 11 at Bar Open, 317 Brunswick St Fitzroy where they’ll be giving away a bunch of Soul Safari ‘summer’ merchandise! Also, in the spirit of spreading the summer love, everyone through the door will receive a FREE copy of the EP! It just makes you feel all ‘warm and fuzzy’ doesn’t it!
