Emma Russack & Lachlan Denton – Take The Reigns | Indie Pop / Singer-Songwriter | BBI-009

When Emma Russack and Lachlan Denton write songs together, something inexplicable happens. "I don't know how to explain it," says Lachlan. "The way we make music and the way we're comfortable to express ourselves in front of each other is very special."

Better known as a solo musician and a member of Melbourne indie mainstay The Ocean Party respectively, Emma Russack and Lachlan Denton have reunited for their third collaborative album in two years. The two Australians combine forces to make a sweetly melodic burst of fragrant indie-pop.

Both artists grapple with freedom and responsibility, finding beauty in simplicity, their own perceived shortcomings, and the simultaneously fraught and exhilarating idea of giving in to human connection, love and relationships.

History of pop music is full of girl-boy duos. One of today's most essential broadens and deepens both artists' oeuvres while pinpointing their strengths: Lachlan Denton's bulletproof hooks, Emma Russack's laconic, acerbic lyrics, and their shared penchant for creating spare, sunburnt Australian rock.

This is Emma Russack and Lachlan Denton's third and best album. File it next to The Go-Betweens.

PRESS:

"Emma Russack's masterfully plainspoken ballads put her in the same league as Bill Callahan and Lucinda Williams."
