Australian guitarist, singer/songwriter, and producer Hamish Anderson has released “Stir Crazy,” a catchy new single in the vein of early 80s ZZ Top on August 9th.
“It’s got a big riff and the power chords put me in the headspace of a AC/DC, Joan Jett, ZZ Top kind of groove. Lyrically it’s about being trapped and trying not to completely lose control,” explains Hamish.
The third single from his forthcoming album ELECTRIC, is a hard driving, pulsating banger. It follows “You’re Mine,” a masterful blend of emotive storytelling and soul-stirring music, marking a new milestone in his musical journey.
ELECTRIC, due October 11, 2024, is Hamish’s third full length album and first in five years. Aptly titled, Hamish describes his forthcoming release as a “love letter to the electric guitar.”
ELECTRIC was cut mostly live as a trio with his touring band (bassist Lauren Stockner and drummer Pete Marin) with appearances by Jessy Green on strings (Foo Fighters) and Jerry Borge on keys (Jonathan Wilson, Ziggy Marley) and finds Hamish sharing 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 catches the energetic raw band vibe of ’70s blues rock but updates it with modernized sounds and forward-thinking arrangements across eleven original songs and one cover song.
