Karma County’s frontman Brendan Gallagher is back with his brand new solo album, Tooraloo & Tender.
His second solo release features 11 new songs and a cover of Van Morrison’s “One Irish Rover.” Amongst the new classics sits the album’s first single “Try, Try Again,” which is featured in the upcoming Australian film Subdivision.
There’s a self-assured ease that comes from listening to the music of a performer who’s notched up more than 30 years in the biz. Brendan Gallagher knows how to craft a beautifully intimate song, and he does it time and time again on this release.
Tooraloo and Tender will be released on September 12 through Inertia Music. If you can’t wait that long, you can snag the digital download through iTunes on August 22. If you like what you hear, make sure you catch Brendan doing his thing in the flesh on his Tooraloo & Tender tour.
