New album GOLDFEELS coming in September

When they eventually arrive, albums from Dan Kelly tend to have a wealth of fantastic stories both on and off the record.” The Sydney Morning Herald  

“All Snakes, no ladders. Everything counts but baby, nothing matters”

Mashing up fifties New Orleans Rock’n’Roll with a V Line train and a big huff of bushfire smoke, Dan Kelly has concocted another apocalyptic party potion in ‘Burn Up With The Trees’, featuring Amanda Roff (Harmony, Time for Dreams) and Erica Dunn (Tropical F Storm, ModCon, Harmony) on backing vocals, the first single off his forthcoming alius opus - GOLDFEELS’ out on Golden Point Records via Metropolitan Groove Merchants.

Written on the Dja Dja Wurrung lands of Central Victoria, Produced by studio wünderkind Dan Luscombe (Courtney Barnett, Amyl and the Sniffers), Burn Up With The Trees takes you on a melodic, hair-raising adventure through the fire zones of regional Australia and out into the cosmos.  

“This tune. while not particularly hopeful, is as much fun as you can have in two and a half minutes while frantically trying to connect your hose to your water tank” Ern Malley

Dan Kelly and his fabulous backing group ‘Regional Crisis’ (Gus Agars, Ben Woolley and Dan Luscombe) are hosting a Sunday Session at the Tote in Melbourne on July 28th, kicking off at 3.30 pm, with guests the literate and hyper-melodic good time crew Think About You, and the captivating situationist youth rock collective that is the Salmon Sisters.

On top of a preview of new album tracks from ‘GOLDFEELS’ and old hits, as a special treat, Dan and the band will play a bunch of tunes off ‘Sing the Tabloid Blues’, his debut album, which was practically conceived In the front bar of the Tote and featured on the famous Tote jukebox. A BBQ (meat-lovers and vegan choices) is being prepared to celebrate his first show back at The Tote in a decade and first new music since 2015. Tickets are on sale now.  Watch the Burn Up With The Trees Clip here:
