We might expect an EP called Tee Pee to be full of puerile humour, but instead The Murlocs latest recording offers us a blast from the past.
The five-track EP builds on the fuzzy, harmonica spiced blues the band delivered on their first EP. The mates from Ocean Grove have such as appealing dirtiness about their sound that music lovers young and old can’t help but get on board.
The recording has such a raw sound and spontaneous energy that it’s unsurprising to hear it was recorded in just one weekend in harp player Ambrose Kenny-Smith’s spare room.
I can only imagine how beautifully such an organic EP will translate to the stage. Victorians will get the chance to find out when The Murlocs launch Tee Pee at The Tote on August 31.
