Geoffrey O'Connor 'For As Long As I Can Remember' LP Grey & White Marble Vinyl
Geoffrey O'Connor, one time frontman for euphoric guitar pop band Crayon Fields, returns with his first solo album in seven years - but is it really a solo album?
For As Long As I Can Remember is a suite of duets with some of Australia's most iconic modern singers, including Jonnine (HTRK), Sarah Mary Chadwick, Laura Jean, Sui Zhen and more.
The album explores late night tales of unsublimated desire, a synth- pop cocoon world where obsessions drift slowly into the rear view mirror and exert an unsteadying backwards pull. Geoffrey’s duet partners do not proffer easy love or solace, rather they challenge him, gently put him down, or glance back at a history of faded passion.
Other guests include Nicole Thibault of Chapter artists Thibault, Jess Ribeiro, June Jones, Summer Flake’s Steph Crase, Sienna Thornton (Cyanide Thornton) and Mystery Guest’s Caitlyn Lesiuk. Sydney funk sophisticate Donny Benet appears on bass on two tracks.
