Description
With a fresh outlook on life and creativity, Josh Pyke returns with a strong contender for his most impressive album to date.
It’s not hard to understand why Josh Pyke has earned a reputation as one of Australia’s favourite song writers. Fans have cherished his ability to combine emotionally insightful lyrics with heartfelt compositions throughout his consistent five-album discography. However, a five-year break from releasing new material found the Aussie musician exploring other endeavours.
While there were no hints of album number six in sight, it would be inaccurate to suggest that the artist wasn’t keeping busy. In 2016 Josh fulfilled his childhood dream performing sold-out shows at the Sydney Opera House alongside the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. The following year he released a compilation to celebrate the ten-year anniversary of his debut album which also contained B-side tracks. Josh’s creativity proved to excel beyond song writing with the success of his children’s book Lights Out. He also formed a surprise indie rock side project titled Sword Owls, silencing any doubters of his active status. Returning to the forefront of the Australian music scene, Josh Pyke presents his new record “Rome.” The musician shares eleven sincere stories influenced by a revitalised perspective on life and creativity, proving his song writing capabilities are far from diminishing.
