What Eskimo Dog, Australia and Munich have in common? Well ... at first glance, nothing first. And the second not, because the name of the Australian indie-folk band Husky who comes to visit on 17/09/2012 to Atomic Café in Munich, is derived from not of the cute dog breed, but from the first name of the singer Husky Gawenda . This picture together with his bandmates Gideon Preiss (keyboards), Evan Tweedie (bass) and Luke Collins (Drums) since 2011 Husky - a quartet, in which each individual has their own musical backgrounds. What unites the four but their love of classic pop music from bands like The Doors and The Beach Boys as well as the desire for sophisticated songwriting and sumptuous harmonies.
The debut album "Forever So" was recorded in Los Angeles in 2011 and mixed by Noah Georgeson, who is known from his work with The Strokes. The album is a great collection of songs with haunting lyrics and delicate sound levels. The Australian fans know the sound of Husky have enjoyed, as well as their fantastic live performances. Husky already stood as a support act for bands such as Gotye, Kimbra, Noah and the Whale and Jinja Safari on stage and have convinced every time - and they have not before, in Munich, at the other end of the world to do something different.
The haunting lyrics and the way of telling how Husky with its art histories, also praised in Rolling Stone: "'Forever So' is breathtaking in its ambition, a shimmering fog of kaleidoscopic storytelling, each song a Nick Drake-esque fairytale delivered with full indie-orchestration ".
In July Husky actually had a cameo in the Australian television quiz show "RocKwiz", where the player has mostly rock music.
Come and visit the concert of Husky on 09/17/2012 at the Atomic Cafe in Munich.
