Following the unexpected acclaim from his charming lo-fi 2019 debut album, Banana Sludge followed by a successful debut tour of Australia’s east coast and supporting California’s Allah Las on their 2020 New Zealand tour, Joe Ghatt excitedly got to work on his follow up record — a process that became a 3 year journey, battling the isolation of Covid-19 lockdowns and a whole new direction in sound and production.

The new album entitled Caper is finally ready for its reveal with the release of lead single ‘Always Remember’, which sees the talented kiwi composer creating his most energetic song to date, with its uptempo drums and bass groove, layers of percussion and rhythmic electric guitar, paired with Joe’s breathy melodic vocals and enchanting flute echoing throughout. The 4:52 track is a cleverly arranged and dynamic jam, where Joe Ghatt brings certain instruments to the surface at different moments, making full use of stereo sound.
