It's Tuesday, it's mid-July and it's long past time for a spotlight on Lindy Morrison and Amanda Brown.
Obligingly, Lindy had a new single out earlier this month, which has been on rotation at Casa K, the latest from SnarskiCircusLindyBand, her current venture with Rob Snarski (The Blackeyed Susans), Shane O'Mara, Graham Lee and Dan Kelly.
After a couple of mini-albums, the first full-length record from SnarskiCircusLindyBand lands in late September. Ten songs, five brand new, five lifted from the mini-albums, What’s Said And What’s Left Unsaid is shaping up to be an impressive debut album.
I've included one song from each of the mini-albums, both of which will appear on What’s Said And What’s Left Unsaid, including My Sweetheart Always Comes Back, guest-starring Lindy's long-time rock 'n' roll friend and collaborator, Amanda Brown.
I've added a couple of blasts from Lindy and Amanda's past, too. Cleopatra Wong yielded a couple of EPs and a bright, shiny pop video in the early 1990s. And, inevitably, the band where I first encountered them both as musicians, The Go-Betweens.
Whilst Lindy and Amanda have belatedly received some of the critical dues for their importance to the band, as someone who came in via the 1978-1990 compilation, and was fascinated by the band photos as well as the music, Lindy and Amanda were always an integral part of what made the band great for me.
Both still smashing it in the here and now.
