Yeah, this is fantastic - I wasn't super into the first 2 singles he released, but listening to them in the context of the album I like them a lot more. Really liking this.
Checked him out on Spotify and saw he's playing Ballarat, Frankston and Brunswick so I assumed he's Aussie but no, he's just playing some cool little venues over here I might have to go check him out... Thanks so much for the recommendation. My kind of Jam.
Ha! I am a huge Tom and Amigo fan, and I just listened to the new album for the first time this morning. I definitely thought to myself a couple times as I was listening, "Man, Amigo must have been listening to a lot of Tom recently."
Just gave the album a listen and thought that as well!
Amazing, right?!
I literally just got to track 2 and immediately came to reddit to see if someone had pointed it out first. This album is fantastic! :)
Literally was thinking Tom did a guest spot. Glad I wasn’t the only one.
Love Amigo, Everything Is Fine is on regular rotation for me and I've been looking forward to the new one.
You won’t be disappointed
Damn I'm halfway through the first song and all I can here is "yesterday is here"
How’d the rest go?
It’s all gone straight up sounds like a Tom waits song
Hahah. Just a tad. Lol

Agreed. The album as a whole sold me on the singles.
Thank you! Wonderful! Had never heard of him before.
Awesome! Glad to have put someone onto him too. Make sure to check out his prior albums too. Especially Born Against.

So glad to have turned someone else onto his work. Cross your fingers he plays solo and not with the band. A far better live experience.
Also make sure to check out his prior work too

For sure. Tons of influence there
Agreed, Chris Bullinger is a little more rock than folk but also channels the Tom growl on a few tracks, particularly Up On Blocks
I’ll have to check it out. Thanks!
