Big Words – Nightmares Of A Stardom Dream (Forest Green Vinyl)

Big Words 'Nightmares of a Stardom Dream' LP Limited Edition Forest Green 180g Vinyl

Melbourne trio Big Words (multi-instrumentalists and singers Will Scullin and Kieren Lee and drummer Teon Catalano) write songs that pull at the thread of life in your 20s. The 11 tracks that make up their brilliant debut album ‘Nightmares Of A Stardom Dream’ elegantly sway from psychedelic-soul grooves to alt-R’n’B bops to cosmic Americana to infectious indie-pop and more, music that captures the existential melting pot of early adulthood, all the excitement and uncertainty and dread and hope at once. They formed as teenagers almost a decade ago and this record is the sound of how they got here. “The title of the album alludes to just how hard it is to commit to being an artist,” says Scullin. “We’ve worked on these songs for a long time, they’re a collection of our experiences. We only write songs when they happen. It’s an honest representation of our lived experiences.”
