Melbourne’s Boomgates are hitting the road this Summer to celebrate the release of their debut long player, Double Natural.
Boomgates started as a couple of friends having a loose Thursday evening sing and strum on the couch. It felt good. So more friends were invited along to the sporadic jam sessions.
It soon became obvious that this crew were now a proper band in their own right. Since their formation they’ve played a bunch of shows, released three 7″ singles and are due to release their debut LP later this year.
Something like a mix of Big Star, Camper Van Beethoven, Towns Van Sant, The Velvet Underground, The Church and probably a heap of something else thrown in on top. Have a listen for yourself.
Boomgates boasts members of Eddy Current Suppression Ring, Twerps, Dick Diver and about a million other awesome projects, Double Natural is their first album.
