Fifty Two Mondays exploring life love and being with Dave Blennerhassett

Fifty Two Mondays, Dave Blennerhassett’s studio album is finally available to stream on 16 October 2020 on Spotify or your favourite streaming platform. 

Born and raised in New Zealand’s windy Wellington, singer/songwriter Dave Blennerhassett now calls Sydney’s Northern Beaches home, which means we can claim him as an Australian gem, like Crowded House, Pavlova and Phar Lap!

If you haven’t listened to the album yet, Fifty Two Mondays delivers a potent package of pathos and humour, moving easily through catchy melodic hooks, bedded down by carefully crafted rhythms. His lyrics explore the changing landscapes of life, love & being.

Recorded over fifty-two Mondays with friend, producer and long time collaborator, Underfoot Records’ Mic Hardwick, the collection will draw you in – poignant, evocative and musically rich.

Add it to your playlist, become a follower and listen on endless repeat. It’s a beautiful song. Enjoy with a good glass of red – and then tell all your friends.

Starting the night, stripped back as a The Gene Maynard Band duo, Gene Maynard with long term collaborator Chris Phillips, will perform his songs in the unique genre blending style of R&B #rock with Jazz, Funk and Soul, that his fans keep coming back for.
 
Then David Blennerhassett will tease your ears and feet with melodic hooks, and carefully crafted rhythms, that explore his journey through the changing countryside of life, love and that precarious quality-happiness.
Finally Mic Hardwick’s band Seeder, brings all three musical brothers on stage to create a rich rock, pop energy, grounded in layers of pumping groove and lyrics that inspire and question the human condition. Think David Byrne meets the Chilli Peppers, grooves that rock, and rock that grooves.

Back on Track-Underfoot Launch

Hallelujah and other exclamations of relief and delight could be heard amongst the invited guests at the Underfoot Launch Party. The 2015 Moontime diary declared that May 23rd was a “great evening to perform or entertain…all creative endeavours are favoured now”! Who could argue with that?

Like a Phoenix from the literal ashes, Underfoot Records is back in business after the fire that decimated spirits and destroyed recording masters 15 years ago. At the invitation only House Party the Underfoot Team welcomed friends and family at what turned into a fabulous extended celebration. After stunning performances from each of the Underfoot artists there was a “For the Camera” contract signing and universal Champagne consumption.  Special thanks to friendly and complimentary neighbours who chose to sit on their balconies and enjoy the songs. With the  Launch the new Underfoot Records website went live-  marked with the long awaited release of 3 singles from  Dave Blennerhassett‘s album Fifty Two Mondays.  A full photo exposé can be found in the gallery,  (Thanks Lani Tupu).  So three cheers for Underfoot and all who sail in her. (Damn Auto correct changed “sail” to “soil”- lucky the edits happened without Champagne)
