The Inadequates Courts A Bold Sound In Single ‘Genevieve' Out Thursday, August 14
Join The Inadequates for the emotional journey of 'Genevieve', out Thursday, August 14, ahead of the release of their album Haven’t You Heard?’ on Thursday, August 28.
Known from their colourful suits, colourful personalities and luxurious embroidery, The Inadequates are a Meanjin/Brisbane-based up-and-coming Indie-folk trio that are impossible to miss. With a trail of gigs at festivals and venues under their belt over the years, they've gained a reputation for complex tunes and high energy, which has led to comparisons with more rock bands than folk.
As they gear up for the release of their long-awaited debut album ‘Haven’t You Heard?’ on Thursday, August 28, they have let the floodgates open to their musical vault to let the public have a peek.
Their third release is 'Genevieve', a bittersweet and bold tune with a hook so irresistible it distracts from the fact that at its core, it's a breakup song. A showcase of folk-pop, this song showcases delicate and intricate riffs woven with powerful, soaring vocals.
The orchestral arrangement is taken on by the quartet with members of The Inadequates Lawson Mackriell on mandolin, Marcus Church on acoustic guitar, and Jackson Church on accordion, with vocals from all three of them, as well as double bass provided by Benja King.
In September, The Inadequates will take this incredible harmony on tour across Australia, bringing their songs to life in newly embroidered suits, with more details to follow.
Get to know 'Genevieve' by The Inadequates, out Thursday, August 14, and keep an ear out for their debut album 'Haven’t You Heard?’ when it drops on Thursday, August 28.
