On April 5, Laura Imbruglia presents brand new single “Awoooh!”, from her forthcoming third album.
After whetting the public’s appetite with first single, 2011’s psych-rock “Why’d You Have To Kiss Me So Hard?”, Laura kept herself busy playing shows with Adalita, Sebadoh & The Gin Club, hosting the “You’re Lookin’ at Country” revue with Courtney Barnett and creating the “Let’s Get Trivical!” music trivia beast. Once suitably inspired, she locked herself indoors and wrote and recorded her best album yet.
The infectious ‘Awoooh!’ is your first taste of this new material. Channeling Cheap Trick, T-Rex & Warren Zevon, Laura continues her decade-long trend of sounding unlike any other female artist around. Backed by her smokin’ Melbournian band (feat. members of Smallgoods, Ground Components & Midnight Woolf), and featuring special guest Seja Vogel (Regurgitator) on keys, Laura casually offers up some pure shimmering ear candy.
The accompanying music video is also a sight to behold. Shot on location in Prahran’s iconic onesixone nightclub, it documents unusual love via a Saturday Night Fever/Teen Wolf/Thriller concept. Directed by Karl Siemon (The Pictures, Even) and renowned theatre director Stephen Nicolazzo (Psycho Beach Party), and featuring a cast of Melbourne’s finest young actors, a 14 piece dance troupe, and Laura as you’ve never seen her before…it’s…just…watch it!
Laura and her band will be performing a select few shows to launch Awoooh! and preview other tracks off the forthcoming album. Get on down to see them in action!
