Brisbane’s Hey Geronimo have steadily developed into one of the country’s most innovative and quirky purveyors of indie music after releasing a string of radio singles over the last two years. After signing last month to seminal Australian publisher Alberts, the band has now announced the release of new single ‘Finale’ — the first track from their highly anticipated debut album, due in 2015. To accompany the release of ‘Finale’, Hey Geronimo will also embark on a tour in December. Recorded with acclaimed Australian producer Steve Schram (The Cat Empire, San Cisco, Eagle & The Worm), the new single is filled with trademark Hey Geronimo hooks, left-of-centre guitar riffs, and big harmonies. The track also features a cameo vocal performance from fellow Brisbanite, Jen Boyce (Ball Park Music). 2013 was an action-packed year for the four-piece, with festival performances at Big Day Out, Homebake, Fat As Butter and Peats Ridge, national tours alongside Deep Sea Arcade, Pluto Jonze and 90s indie legends Presidents of the USA – not to mention their ten-day tour of India in November as a featured Australian artist on the NH7 Weekender festival.
