Lou Bradley, the self-proclaimed hippy from Mullumbimby release La La La Not Listening the follow up album to her ARIA and CMAA nominated debut Love Someone. In this memorable collection of original songs Bradley evokes the high lonesome spirit of the hills of Kentucky made famous by The Carter Family nearly a century ago as accurately as she identifies and explores the joys and difficulties of modern life in Australia. Her first release on Slim Dusty and Joy McKean's Nulla label, La La La Not Listening was recorded earlier this year at The Sound Hole, the home studio of Shane Nicholson and Kasey Chambers. The Nicholson-produced album contains 13 tracks including outstanding lead single Uluru, a song inspired by Lou's visit to the famous landmark as part of her magical mystery tour of Central Australia (with 24 family and friends!) made possible in part by a grant from the John Butler Seed. There's also One Way In One Way Out ...a co-composition between Bradley and Bill Chambers. The gently driving Now or Never was the inspired by a chance meeting with American roots superstar Jack Johnson and the elegant Bad Manners shows the utter beauty of Bradley's voice. All emphasise the continuing growth of an important voice on the musical landscape. Bradley is a fearless writer who delivers her material in pure, sweet tones. She creates songs of the land and of the heart that are an intoxicating mix including a little folk, a little country and a little rock that she happens to call "Bohemian country." With a crack team of musicians including Bill Chamber, Mick Albeck and Mark Collins in support, Bradley and Nicholson have created a sparse sound that allows her unforgettable stories to unfold slow and easy and always truthfully.
