Intacto

The brainchild of 26-year-old Brighton born singer/songwriter Mike Rosenberg, Passenger is redefining the troubadour for the 21st century. Formerly a five-piece band, Passenger has now pared back to basics, quite literally bringing music to the streets on a series of lengthy busking journeys across Australia, America and the United Kingdom. A classic journeyman musician, cut from the same mould as Van Morrison, Neil Young and John Prine, Passenger has the unique ability to move from the humorous to heartbreaking with every song.

After a year spent crisscrossing the UK and US with his debut album Wicked Man's Rest, Passenger's markedly stripped down and soulful second album Wide Eyes Blind Love was brought to the public as it was created: on the road. Setting up on street corners across the UK and Australia, Passenger halted passers by in their hundreds; all connecting to the mellifluous tones and powerfully hewn lyrics emanating from this lone figure and his guitar. This is music as Passenger means it to be

The brainchild of 26-year-old Brighton born singer/songwriter Mike Rosenberg, Passenger is redefining the troubadour for the 21st century. Formerly a five-piece band, Passenger has now pared back to basics, quite literally bringing music to the streets on a series of lengthy busking journeys across Australia, America and the United Kingdom. A classic journeyman musician, cut from the same mould as Van Morrison, Neil Young and John Prine, Passenger has the unique ability to move from the humorous to heartbreaking with every song.

After a year spent crisscrossing the UK and US with his debut album Wicked Man's Rest, Passenger's markedly stripped down and soulful second album Wide Eyes Blind Love was brought to the public as it was created: on the road. Setting up on street corners across the UK and Australia, Passenger halted passers by in their hundreds; all connecting to the mellifluous tones and powerfully hewn lyrics emanating from this lone figure and his guitar. This is music as Passenger means it to be, unvarnished and honest, just pure talent and powerful tunes that tap straight into the heart of the crowd.

Struck by the dynamic freedom of the troubadour life, Passenger developed the grass roots method of Wide Eyes Blind Love into the germ of a new album. Impressively and entirely self funded through busking income, Passenger set about recording a series of collaborations with musical friends met along the way. Flight Of The Crow is the remarkable result of Passenger's intrepid journey, with Australian artists Lior, Josh Pyke, Katie Noonan, Boy &amp; Bear, Kate Miller Heidke, Philadelphia Grand Jury, Brian Campeau and Elana Stone, Matt Corby, Jess Chalker and Dead Letter Chorus all lending their voices to this serendipitous creative venture. Flight Of The Crow was recorded in Sydney's famous BJB studios over February and March of 2010, and co- produced by Berkfinger (AKA Simon Berkleman from Philadelphia Grand Jury). As a second album born of the road, Flight Of The Crow speaks to the compelling quality of Passenger's music and the striking sincerity of his lyrics, both of which are matched by his dedication to this grass roots style of craftsmanship and collaboration.

How utterly remarkable that a lone musician can travel the globe, and literally from the street, connect with some of Australia's finest musical talents to produce a self- funded album. This is the stuff of legend, with Passenger clearly evoking the humble, hardworking creativity of the troubadours of old.

Shape Of Love - Featuring Boy &amp; Bear

Golden Thread - Featuring Matt Corby

Britain’s Passenger will team up with the crème of Australian music on their forthcoming 3rd album, ‘Flight Of The Crow’ – out 17th September on Inertia. The brainchild of frontman and core member, Mike Rosenberg, the album came together as the 26-year-old singer/songwriter journeyed across Australia.
 
Featuring collaborations with Lior, Josh Pyke, Katie Noonan, Boy & Bear, Kate Miller Heidke, Simon J Berckelman (Philadelphia Grand Jury), Brian Campeau and Elana Stone, Matt Corby and Jess Chalker was entirely self-funded by the busking income Rosenberg earned, performing on Australia’s streets. ‘Flight Of The Crow’ is the remarkable result of Rosenberg’s intrepid journey, and the friendships struck along the way.
 
The album was recorded in Sydney’s famous BJB Studios. Co-produced by Berkfinger (aka. Simon J. Berckelman of Philadelphia Grand Jury), it came into being over February and March of 2010 - although almost all of the core elements (bass drums, guitars and lead vox) were recorded in one single day!
 
Josh Pyke recounts how himself an Rosenberg came to collaborate: “A while back, a friend of one my good mates in the UK emailed me and said a guy called Mike was coming out to Oz, that we'd get along... Since Mike was living around the corner we started catching up pretty often, and having a few jams, and Mike asked me to get involved in his project. By that time I’d heard his music, and seen him perform at a low key soup party, and really liked his songwriting, so I said yes.”
 
Lior shares a similar affection for Rosenberg’s songwriting, claiming: "Mike is one of those songwriters with an infectious passion for his craft. The songs seem to well out from somewhere deep. Recording this track felt refreshingly effortless and spontaneous."
 
Showcasing a dedication to a grass roots style of craftsmanship and collaboration, ‘Flight Of The Crow’ is a testimony to a lone musician who travelled the globe and, from the street, connected with some of Australia’s finest musical talents. As an album born of the road, ‘Flight Of The Crow’ speaks to the compelling quality of Passenger’s music and the striking sincerity of his lyrics. 
 
‘Flight Of The Crow’ is out 17th September 2010 on Inertia.
