Tracey Bunn's first self-produced album Another Broken Juliet, a collaboration with lyricist Peter Hayes, a melodious soundtrack to 10 tales of broken hearts, murder and isolation.
Patsy Cline meets Flaco Jimenez in this south of the border flavoured take on a relationship breakdown.
Think Mr Pike from Sgt Peppers flavoured with a dash of Charles Aznavour and a couple of Can Can girls and you’ll get a sense of this kooky murder revenge track. Featuring Gleny Rae on accordion.
Another Broken Juliet features fellow Aussie Anne McCue on electric guitar in this story of star-crossed lovers, evoking a James Bond meets Marty Robbins soundtrack for a Tarantino-esque Spaghetti Western with female leads.
With music that wouldn’t be out of place in a Sergio Leone western, the haunting and haunted vocals tell of isolation and the want for solitude. The polar landscape and the white walls of an institution are indistinguishable.
When you think ‘blue’, you think lots of things - Joni Mitchell, melancholy, and Cezanne. And there's elements and echoes of all these in the latest musically and lyrically nuanced song from Tracey Bunn. It's a word portrait, it's a moody ode, it's a verbal picture, it's an image. Is it of you?
