Multiple ARIA and AMP Award nominee Dan Kelly is back with his new LP, ‘GOLDFEELS’, on Golden Point Records via Metropolitan Groove Merchants. A rumination on cycles of time, GOLDFEELS, takes us on a journey through the gold?elds of Dja Dja Wurrung land in Central Victoria. 

Birthed from a maelstrom of family grief and pandemic isolation, the album sounds as wide open as the landscapes that inspired it. Written by Dan alone at the piano, the album is sonically sparser than the in?nite layer cake sound of previous records, with propulsive percussive energy locked into a heavy, steady groove. GOLDFEELS holds you in dawn and dusk, moments of re?ection and speculation. Biblical imagery and apocalyptic raveups sit alongside lost love, the insidious pull of online radicalisation, environmental degradation and classic DK character odysseys like the epic Sea Shepherd Cook.

“The mighty Dan Kelly’s magical 5th album, GOLDFEELS is yet another gargantuan lesson in artful yet instantly ap-pealing album making. Kelly covers new ground on this largely piano-based offering (with distant echoes of Randy Newman and John Cale), telling musical stories about sex, death, grief, and bushfires - what more could you ask for?” - Peter Jesperson
