Australian guitarist, singer/songwriter, and producer Hamish Anderson releases "So Alive," a defining track from his upcoming album ELECTRIC, today!
"If there's one song that defines my new album ELECTRIC and where it sits both sonically and lyrically, I think 'So Alive' is that song," says Hamish. "It captures a mixture of rock & roll, soul, and modern blues. It has both light and shade in the arrangement, and I feel it really shows us firing on all cylinders as a band."
As a love letter to the guitar, each song on ELECTRIC "has a nod to guitarists before me – 'So Alive' was inspired by The Rolling Stones (Keith Richards), Lenny Kravitz, and Alabama Shakes," Hamish shares.
His third full-length album, ELECTRIC, was recently reviewed in Rolling Stone Australia, which remarked, "Anderson has reached a new level of musicality and rollicking bravado."
Due out on October 11, 2024, ELECTRIC is Hamish's first album in five years. Aptly titled, it’s a hard-driving, pulsating banger. ELECTRIC was cut mostly live as a trio with his touring band (bassist Lauren Stockner and drummer Pete Marin), featuring appearances by Jessy Greene on strings (Foo Fighters) and Jerry Borge on keys (Jonathan Wilson, Ziggy Marley). Hamish shares production duties with David Davis (The War On Drugs, Lauren Ruth Ward, Miguel). The result is a stellar, high-energy album with a clear and unified vision that captures the raw, energetic vibe of ’70s blues rock but updates it with modern sounds and forward-thinking arrangements across eleven original songs and one cover.
