Melbourne’s Boomgates are hitting the road this Summer to celebrate the release of their debut long player, Double Natural.
Since the beginning the idea behind Boomgates was to get a group of friends together and jam. Like a potluck dinner or a five-course meal each member brings something different to the table. It's a tasty blend of calm and smooth with a rough and rocking undercurrent.
Over the years they've honed this idea into something quite delicious.
They've released a string of 7" singles and have just put o ut their debut LP "Double Natural" to critical acclaim. Something like a mix of Big Star, Camper Van Beethoven, Towns Van Zandt, The Velvet Underground, The Church and a heap of something else thrown in on top. Have a listen for yourself.
Boomgates boasts members of Eddy Current Suppression Ring, Twerps, Dick Diver and about a million other awesome projects, Double Natural is their first album.
