Search - Redhead :: Ordinary Girl

Many good things come out of Australia - not the least of which is their wonderfully organic take on music. Having spent the last decade delivering harmony-heavy folk-pop to North American festivals in the Aussie band, FRUIT, Susie Keynes, the fiery redhead of that hugely acclaimed group now brings her hot new rock outfit to the scene. Introducing REDHEAD: a bright, tight Australian 3 piece delivering a sonic-punch that shifts between acoustic plaintiveness and the explosion of raucous girl-rock. REDHEAD's debut release, Ordinary Girl, has been produced by UK producer Paul Gomersall (Blur, Kate Bush, George Michael). REDHEAD's vision was to hang this collection of songs on an simple framework of guitars, drums and bass allowing Susie Keynes' stand alone vocal to deliver each well crafted tune. Ordinary Girl is a surprising and utterly enjoyable journey: strong songs lassoed by a tight and edgy band. If this is to be genrefied let it be songwriter-rock. There are meanings and stories being told here that reach far beyond their ear-tugging hooks.
