"Lush vocals paired with diverse, at times challenging orchestral arrangements."
For lovers of lush vocals paired with diverse, at times challenging orchestral arrangements, Astral Debris is for you.
Melbourne singer-songwriter Georgia Fields channels Florence & The Machine-esque tribal beats on Hood & The Hunter (without the vocal acrobatics), and a cover of David Bowie's Where Are We Now? is as strong as the original. Produced by Fields and Double J host Tim Shiel, it's Lachlan Carrick's experienced hand at working with strong singers (Katie Noonan, CW Stoneking) that shines. Astral Debris promises a lot, and although the arrangements can sometimes mask her vocal line, tracks like Moon strike a fine balance.
