Fraser A. Gorman is set to release debut LP Slow Gum this summer
Fraser A. Gorman has shared details of his upcoming debut album, Slow Gum.
The Torquay-born (Australian Torquay, that is) troubadour is a collaborator of the vaunted Courtney Barnett, and while he employs a similar passion for addictive, simple songs with brilliant lyrics, he verges on country-western instead of indie-rock. The album is set to arrive just in time for summer off the back of a string of highly-rated singles.
Slow Gum is out on 29 June via Milk! Records/House Anxiety/Marathon.
