Chatter fills the dimly lit Alhambra Lounge on Saturday Night in anticipation of Andy Bull. Having released only one single since his last tour to Brisbane a few months previous, Alhambra Lounge is surprisingly packed. The crowd cheers as he enters the stage as part of his four-piece band, diving straight into creating smooth layers of synth, drums, clicking and vocals. His trademark higher range and vibrato sings across the crowd. Bull alternates between older music from his 2010 ‘Phantom Pains EP’ and unreleased newer tracks – the crowd responding positively to both. ‘Baby I’m Nobody now’ and ‘My Street’ are crowd favourites as they move and sing to both and laugh as he tells the story of an ex-girlfriend who moved into his street after their break up. The rest of the band exit as Bull performs ‘Last Waltz’ – originally performed with Hungry Kids of Hungary, here he is able to shine independently on stage. Other tracks include ‘Keep on Running’ and a cover of Tears for Fears’ ‘Everybody wants to rule the world,’ before he finishes with a new track, ‘Nothing is Wrong.’

With Andy Bull’s incredible voice control, a recent (June 2013) record deal, and latest more experimental tracks, we eagerly await his debut album.
