The Green Child is the long distance musical collaboration of Mikey Young and Raven Mahon, who met in 2013 when their bands, Total Control and Grass Widow played a show in Oakland, California. They started writing songs together in Australia in 2014 and the project has been on a slow burn since. Their self-titled debut album is the culmination of few years of putting ideas together internationally and periodically recording in Mikey's home studio. Some of the lyrical content and the band's name was inspired by Herbert Read's 1935 utopian, communist, sci-fi novel called The Green Child.

With such a choice name, it’s no surprise that The Green Child draw their sound from an illusory past as much as they stalk into pastures new. Broadly retro-futuristic in scope, verdant acres of lushly evocative synthesizers and blippy drum machines underpin most of their upbeat yet decidedly uncanny songs. Raven’s calmly scenic and measured vocal flits like a will-o’-the-wisp throughout the tracks, proffering a guiding hand as she walks us through the often eerie, electronic concoctions.

‘Traveler’ opens the album all redolent, beat-minded and labyrinthine. Twisting melody lines swirl and envelop like a sandstorm, whilst Raven coolly projects on a “solitary man” lost to “green oblivion”. Similarly, ‘Her Majesty II’ glistens with its playful yet plaintive vocal and iridescent arpeggios, whilst ‘Bertha’ slows things down with tumbling chimes and stately use of space.

The Green Child are adept at atmosphere, their songs are refined from gently unfolding ideas that never fail to realise and build to their potential. Tracks like ‘Walking Distance’ (featuring Al Montfort on saxophone) and ‘New Years Eve’ are exercises in evolved composition with ideas budding off and blossoming into truly resonant dimensions. The band’s cover of ‘Marie Elene’ (by Keith Pearson) and closing track ‘Destroyer’ are further crowning achievements, both pieces subtly handled with poise and ample melancholic grandeur. The Green Child fix their sights on the heights they want to reach within their songs and much like the project itself don’t want to rush to the finish line. When it becomes more about the unfurling journey, why not take the time to enjoy the trip and burn slower?

‘The Green Child’ is due for release on January 12th through Upset The Rhythm on 180g black vinyl, accompanied by some spirited sleeve design by James Vinciguerra.

The Green Child - 'Her Majesty II'

"Take Shelter" is the lead single from our forthcoming album "Nowadays", released May 4, 2018, by Tambourhinoceros

Lyrics
In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
they told them everything in the house had burned
and all that's left will slowly fade to the earth
In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
And every night the fearful dreams emerge
she takes her shelter like a flightless bird
A life worth living? “I don’t know”
a wolf gone hiding in the snow
a love worth killing just to show
just what it is to let it go
just what it is to let him go
In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
they told them everything in the house had burned
and all that's left will slowly fade to the earth
she lay down with him there for weeks
she heard his body start to creak
and when he turned to her to speak
that’s when he knew his time had peaked
that’s when he knew their time had peaked
In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
they told them everything in the house had burned
and all that's left will slowly fade to the earth
In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
And every night the fearful dreams emerge
she takes her shelter like a flightless bird

THE PRISSTEENS - NOTHING TO SAY

THE BIG EASY

Be Forest - BENGALA

Hey friend, 
What are you doing today? 
“I’ve had a busy busy week, 
I live a busy busy life.” 

Hey friend, 
Lack of money got you down? 
Well, here’s an extra little fee, 
For insufficient funds this week. 

Whenever I do nothing, 
I like to spread the nothing around 
When everybody has some, 
We’ll take a trip to Nothingtown. 

Whenever I have nothing. 
I like to keep the nothing around. 
When everybody has some, 
Nothingtown is where I will be found. 

Hey friend, 
I’ve got a lot of things to say. 
But today we’re not gonna say any of them. 
No, today we’re not gonna say any of them. 

Hey friend, 
I think our thoughts are in decay. 
But today we’re not gonna pay them any mind. 
No, today we’re just focused on wasting our time. 

Whenever I do nothing, 
I like to spread the nothing around 
When everybody has some, 
We’ll take a trip to Nothingtown. 

Whenever I have nothing, 
I like to keep the nothing around. 
When everybody has some, 
Nothingtown’s where I’ll be found.

Written and recorded by Alex Johnson, Greg Katz, Sarah Tudzin and Alex Rogers

Insufficient Funds

A Place To Wash My Hands - Insufficient Funds

Falling in love for the first time in your teens is always scary. I fell in love with my best friend, and when it’s unrequited love during the day and a secret at night, one can literally go mad. It’s like falling in love in darkness. You become a vampire. Sleeping the day away to be near your lover in a parallel universe in your head. Moving to New York City in the mid 90´s saved my life. I discovered the queer scene, only to find out that I was not crazy, lost myself in the vast variety of music, running from one small indie record store to another. I became a music collector and made mix tapes for my friends in NYC and Germany. Years later, when I returned to Germany and first heard Dirk´s songs, I was immediately pulled back in time, and I fell in love with his powerful, beautiful wall of sound. All my vocal ideas for his demos shot right out of the deepest part of myself. Love, fear, demons, teen-angst, lust, and the universe. 
Singer Apolonia about her lyrics for Seasurfer´s EP Vampires.

Making music is like a drug you get hooked on. When songs come together like a picture, then happiness is pure...and the four songs of this EP make me happy. 
SEASURFER is like an adventure, a trip where new musicians keep coming on board and others disembarking, so that the journey continues. This EP, with my new Hamburg-based singer Apolonia, has the voice that I've been looking for for years: Ethereal, shimmering yet strong, hook lines that get stuck. It`s cool hanging out with her, and she hopefully will stay for a long time. Also, the driving bass play of my old buddy, Steven Burrows, which I admired for the English Band AND ALSO THE TREES, gives SEASURFER a new, strong kick.
