Repeat Until Fade

Open Up Their Eyes

Black Summer

Good Will Remedy have been serenading and rocking Australian audiences for half a dozen years now. In that time most bands might release a couple of albums, but the prolific and hard working GWR already have five albums under their belt, with number six set to hit stores and DSPs in the fourth quarter of 2023.

The first tantalising taste of the album came in the form of 'Jay', a song that pays homage to the raw sunshine sound of Brisbane icons The Go-Betweens and Halfway. The song has featured on ABC Country's Grass Roots, Apple Music's Southern Craft playlist, CMT and Sunburnt Country Music.

Single number two is 'May Day', a song that finds GWR celebrating their indie rock influences, from the Pixies-like rolling bass guitar intro through to the rousing, power pop chorus hook. 'May Day' is a song about making plans on your terms – a circle on the calendar and a reverse-engineered exit strategy.

Singer Will reflects – “I was having a tough time, and felt a little trapped, I was an easy target – but I soon realised after chatting to a couple of wise heads, that I had the power to change that – so I did. I picked a date, got my head down and worked towards that change date”.

Musically, the single has a solid dose of rock 'n' roll swagger with a shared influence within the band also giving it a ‘Smithereens-esque’ sound, as Will explains. “Dave (Newman, guitar player) and I had a few beers one night and uncovered a mutual love for The Smithereens – and since then I have been lucky enough to land a few of their albums on vinyl and I think you can certainly hear the influence in this song particularly.”

What does Tuesday actually offer anyone?

It’s a day that kind of gets lost really – it’s close enough to Monday to get a bit of overspill from those Monday blues - yet some distance from Friday and the weekend sparkle. The song It’s Only Tuesday recognises that the busy nature of life can come in waves and sometimes those waves peak really, really early and the week just isn’t long enough to cope, moreover you just can’t see the end of the week through the ’mire’ – particularly if by Tuesday your week has already peaked, and the weekend seems a lifetime away!
The track sees Good Will Remedy work again with Brisbane Engineer and Producer Jeff Lovejoy at his Brisbane based BlackBox studio and features Keyboard legend and virtuoso Vaughan Jones. The song really swings in a traditional southern rock feel and stands to be a crowd favourite for the band.

It's Only Tuesday

Will channels Elvis Costello and post punk type influences – whilst the production by Jason Millhouse ads a raw energy that encapsulates an honest, Rock N Roll vibe.

Initials

Sometimes you just have to call it….. when things that are out of your control and are being manipulated and managed against you then it’s time …. pull the trigger and get away from the toxicity. 
Gotta Get Away is the second single from Will Remedy & The Influencers and follows on the from debut single Initials. Again, working with Engineer/Producer Jason Millhouse, the track oozes Indie Rock vibes via its production and driving guitar tones. Will’s vocal delivery is again on point and a sneaky bass solo raises the track even more. On the solo Will ads – “Well it’s my solo project and I’m a bass player, so why not have a solo! (laughs) – it just sat in there nicely during the pre-production, so we kept it in for the final version…. I just need to remember what I played come show time!”
