Billy Gardner & Friends- Last of the Natural Light

A sprawling home-taped summit of Melbourne’s underground hierarchy, Last of the Natural Light finds Anti Fade figurehead Billy Gardner gathering a rogue’s gallery from ORB, Parsnip, Bananagun, and beyond to bend Australian indie into eccentric new angles. The debut struts with a poise honed by years of bedroom tracking, that smoothly blends leafy acoustic songs with redlining garage riffs.
