Search - Youth Group :: Urban & Eastern

Originally released in 2000 on Ivy League Records 'Urban & Eastern' has not been available for some years. But due to high demand Ivy League have made the album available once again. Received to rave reviews across the country 'Urban & Eastern' was the introduction to the brilliant song writing abilities of front man Toby Martin. Wryly observed snippets of urban poetry and lilting, almost folk-like melodies to which the band set a yelping, cursing, shimmering and rocking backdrop. The album was the result years of frantic nights and reflective mornings - the document of a youth spent in the inner city. It also represented a refining of the band's vision containing moments of sheer pop bliss within the sprawling explorations, a refinement no doubt aided by the influence of producer extraordinaire and man of good taste Wayne Connolly - who has produced all the bands albums including the forthcoming 'Casino Twilight Dogs'.
