Bourgeois Earth is Nicholas Griffith’s brain-child, born into this world upon returning home from a U.S. tour with his other band, Big White.
The tour obviously filled him with musical inspiration, as ‘Concrete Love’ enchants us with its very jangly guitar sounds, tasteful touches of minimalist synths, and charming, almost nonsensical lyrics. The overall effect is something akin to ’90s indie rock group Pavement, while the video, is pretty much the definition of ‘grass roots’.
If you’re also a fan, you can hear this one live at the ‘Concrete Love’ single launch on Friday 23rd September at Sydney’s Union Hotel, with strong supports in No Local and Oral-B.
