{"product_id":"season-2-power-of-now","title":"Season 2 - Power Of Now","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeason 2\u003c\/strong\u003e formed in late 2024, bringing together seasoned Melbourne musicians with previous and current projects including \u003cstrong\u003eParsnip\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eThe Stroppies\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ePhil and the Tiles\u003c\/strong\u003e. The five piece, comprising \u003cstrong\u003eCarolyn Hawkins\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eClaudia Serfaty\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eCharlotte Zarb\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eFreya McLeod\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eMatt Powell\u003c\/strong\u003e, quickly set to work writing winsome, DIY, shimmer-pop hits that careen through your mind in a gratifying dizzy rush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a clear collective vision and little time to waste, Season 2 spent 2025 writing and recording, appearing live only a handful of times. Finally, this April, the band are primed for their debut release, a full-length album entitled '\u003cem\u003ePower of Now\u003c\/em\u003e'. ‘\u003cem\u003ePower of Now\u003c\/em\u003e‘ is a cerebral explosion of melody, hooks, drones and rhythm. In the vein of The Feelies, The Vaselines and The Clean, Season 2 have whipped up a sonic whirlwind. It's a giddy thrill of snappy slap, catchy gang vocals and crystalline guitar refrains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e'\u003cem\u003eAbundance of Power\u003c\/em\u003e' is a bittersweet bop of ponderous bass, crisp chord flashes and grounded vocals that dwell on slighted futures and bored realities. '\u003cem\u003eBecomes a Dream\u003c\/em\u003e' is delirious race of scrappy strumming and flying phrases that unsettle as much as they pinball endorphins - \"pour the ink into the sand, watch the dog it bites the hand\". \"Tell me something, elbows on the table, I'll tell you nothing, leave you tugging at the cable\" they sing on the peppy future single '\u003cem\u003eTugging at the Cable\u003c\/em\u003e', capturing a certain innocent, wide-eyed expressiveness. Season 2 do sparky well, their songs are instant rewards, tunnelling into your subconscious and testing the dance floor. They keep everything moving, the beat and the conversation. Season 2 sound barely controlled and all the better for it, you have no choice but to be swept up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e'\u003cem\u003ePower of Now\u003c\/em\u003e' was recorded by \u003cstrong\u003eAlex Macfarlane\u003c\/strong\u003e (The Green Child, Chateau) and mastered by \u003cstrong\u003eMikey Young\u003c\/strong\u003e. It will be released digitally and on LP (black vinyl) on April 24th, internationally via \u003cstrong\u003eUpset The Rhythm\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UPSET THE RHYTHM","offers":[{"title":"Black Vinyl LP","offer_id":58405511659865,"sku":"SDZ-31077","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/PID-24692-96-002.png?v=1782477731","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/season-2-power-of-now","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
