Expensive Music Band - Things to say at a barbecue LP

Born in Sydney / Dharug country and based in the Illawarra on Dharawal land, Expensive Music Band’s Troon Lienad has been honing his melodic sensibilities over the past fifteen years, self-releasing several avant-pop projects, shifting sound and style from album-to-album.

Recorded by Troon Lienad alongside a wide-ranging cast of collaborators, including Annabel Blackman (Body Type, Solo Career), Chet Tucker (Uplifting Bell Ends), Luke Player (Tropical Strength, Pinheads) and Bowen Shakallis (Big White), Things to Say at a Barbecue is a testament the power of an artistic support network. Written and recorded by the group at Jez Player’s Pinhead Shed, the record is a collegial cosmophage of goofball humour, with farcical yarns and meditations on cosmic despair, caressing the ears of the purposefully distracted and willingly vulnerable. - Permanent Slump
