Album Details
CARNIVAL' WAS RECORDED IN JUST OVER A WEEK WITH PRODUCER AND BROTHER NASH CHAMBERS ON NSW'S CENTRAL COAST. JOINING THEM WERE SOME HAND PICKED SPECIAL GUESTS (MANY OF WHOM HAD NEVER WORKED WITH KASEY PREVIOUSLY) INCLUDING MIDNIGHT OIL'S JIM MOGINIE, BERNARD FANNING (POWDERFINGER), TIM ROGERS (YOU AM I) AND MICHAEL BARKER (JOHN BUTLER TRIO). IT'S THIS FRESH APPROACH AND WILLINGNESS TO BREAK THE MOULD THAT ONLY SERVES TO CEMENT CHAMBERS' POSITION AS AN EVOLVING, UNIQUE AND DYNAMIC AUSTRALIAN ARTIST. WHILE THE ALBUM HAS A DISTINCTLY CONTEMPORARY EDGE THAT WILL SURPRISE MANY, 'CARNIVAL' STILL DRAWS ON ALL THE TRADEMARK QUALITIES THAT HAS MADE KASEY CHAMBERS ONE OF AUSTRALIA'S MOST LOVED AND RESPECTED ARTISTS. THE TITLE OF THE ALBUM IS LIFTED FROM ONE OF THE ALBUM TRACKS 'COLOUR OF THE CARNIVAL' AND THROUGHOUT THE ALBUM, CHAMBERS DRAWS LIFE COMPARISONS TO THAT OF A SIMPLE CARNIVAL...EXPLORING LIFE, LOVE, INNOCENCE, FUN AND LOSS ALL WITH A HEALTHY SHOT OF OPTIMISM. THE ALBUM WILL BE PRECEDED BY FIRST SINGLE 'NOTHING AT ALL', RELEASED JULY 24TH.
