The second Busby Marou album ‘Farewell Fitzroy’ will be released in October.
For the album Tom Busby and Jeremy Marou flew to Nashville to record the first single ‘Get You Out Of Here’ with Brad Jones (Justin Townes Earle, Missy Higgins).
“I love playing this,” says frontman Tom Busby of the new song. “It’s about long distance relationships, the battles and hurdles involved. I spent an incredible week with Jeremy in Byron Bay, writing songs and being isolated from everything. I said to my girlfriend afterwards that being away from the outside world, you can’t help but get this feeling of, ‘I want to stay here’. It’s about looking forward to the time when I can get both of us out of our situation; get us both forward to where we want to be.”
One of the tracks on the album was co-written with Cold Chisel’s Don Walker.
“On the first album we were a duo,” says Jeremy Marou of the pair’s evolution, “but now we’re a full band – and that’s what you’re hearing on this new record, the full band sound. We really wanted to capture our live feel.”
‘Farewell Fitzroy’ will be released through Warner Music on October 4.
