Xpress single review

In 2007, former Perth lad Henry F. Skerritt released his second album with The Holy Sea in A Beginner’s Guide To The Sea, and now he’s ready to unleash his next chapter with this double A side single release. Bad Luck is a fast paced song with an infectious melody that we’ve come to expect from the songsmith, while King of Palm Island is a piano-driven ballad that ensures once again that poetic imagery is front and centre, this time addressing the issue of a death in custody. Blasted cops. Keeping consistent with their love affair for all things Australiana and booze, this is a top taster of their anticipated forthcoming album Ghosts Of The Horizon.
