O DECEIT Single Reviews

"Lindsay's distinctive voice recalls M Ward or Henry Wagons; the song is beautiful but it's the voice that will stay with you. He plucks at his guitar with a feather light hand and sings a rich, quavering folk song, with just the faintest, almost gospel-like harmonies. Lovely."

Simone - Beat Magazine

LEGION /INFINALITY Single Reviews

"Speaking of distinctive voices, here's another one. According to Lindsay Phillips' press release, he's from "the shadows of Collingwood", but his deep, curiously-accented voice could come from the moon. Mannered vocals like these tend to polarise opinion, but if nothing else, Phillips' songs definately stand out from the legion of other acoustic song-writer-y types."

Clem Bastow - Inpress

"Lindsay Phillips has a tremulous voice, a warbling sound reminiscent of both Antony Hegarty and Elvis. His song is a gentle patter of folk and a lonely gem; rain on the windscreen and the occasional distant thunder while miles of road pass away beneath your wheels. Lovely."

Simone - Beat Magazine

"...Lindsay Phillips has been playing for some time now, honing his craft and impressing audiences and critics alike. His hard work is about to pay off, if this recent double A sided single is anything to go by...this is an accomplished yet effortless first effort, and one can only await the album with genuine anticipation."

Tim Burke - thedwarf.com.au

AILEEN EP Reviews

"....I wouldn't give two hoots about Lindsay Phillips except he's too damn good. His 5 tracker Aileen is an outstanding collection of dark folk songs....it’s his voice which got me in. This doesn’t sound like some guy from Melbourne in his 20s?30s?....this affected croon takes me somewhere I have never been and suddenly I’m hovering above the smoky tables in some little folky dive in Greenwich Village in the mid-60s.....this can’t possibly be Lindsay’s natural voice, but it’s his chosen singing voice and it’s incredible."

Nic Dalton - Half A Cow Records

"Lindsay Phillips is testament to the quality of Melbourne's solo performers. 'Aileen' is a shining example of the beauty of great songs. No synthesizers, drum loops or jagged guitars, just good old fashioned songwriting."

Andrew Worotniuk - Beat Magazine

"...Lindsay Phillips' boozy blend of, lets say, Antony Hegarty and Red Sovine makes for compelling listening; this 5 track EP melds gentle steel string with Phillips' moony voice and creates a moody, lovely - if slightly bonkers - soundtrack to wintry afternoons."

Clem Bastow - Inpress

   About LINDSAY PHILLIPS

*NEW SINGLE 'O DECEIT' AVAILABLE NOW AT LINDSAYPHILLIPS.COM.AU

After fronting bands for well over a decade, Lindsay Phillips changed direction. Armed only with guitar and a handful of arresting songs he stepped back onto the stage as a solo artist. If you are fortunate enough to see him perform, it is his voice, all gravel and melodic charm, that will pin you. His songs are laments - haunted offerings to the lost souls of love.

Whilst committing himself with integrity to this theatre of the romantic-macabre, Phillips still manages worthwhile achievements. He has played countles shows throughout Australia, toured North America and Europe twice, self recorded/released two EP’s, and has been included in showcase performances at Popkomm 2006 in Berlin and NXNE 2007 in Toronto.

His debut album VARNING is scheduled for release March 2010 through new independent label Departed Sounds.

*LINDSAY PHILLIPS COVERS DYLAN WITH ANDREW KEESE AND THE ASSOCIATES LIVE AT THE NORTHCOTE SOCIAL CLUB, MELBOURNE - NOV 19, 2008...watch the clip.

G'day
Come on down to the Tote on Sunday the 27th of September to celebrate the end of another Footy season. The back line will be ably defended by Gruntbucket. Coming off the bench to take their position on the wing are Dirty York. Winning the ball at all the stoppages will be the mighty mid field attack of The Get Go. They'll send the ball rocketing toward the fantastic forward line of Clinkerfield who are sure to kick a swag of goals.
There'll be plenty of snags on the barbie to help with the hangover.

Glad you liked the poster. I am planning on coming to Melbourne to play soon. My album is finished and I have got to launch it somewhere. Not sure where yet. But I want to play several shows down there in a couple of months. I'm coming down to record in a few weeks too.

We should play some gigs together. I like your stuff a lot. Good to see you are playing on the same bill as Tom. You're both great. A show with all three of us would be cool.

Adios Kemosabe -

Konrad.
