September 15, 2007 - Darren Hayes releases new album |
|
 |
Superstar and critically-acclaimed artist Darren Hayes has
put together a collection of 25 bold and intriguing Pop
songs that are being compared in scope to the work of
musical icons such as Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel and David
Bowie. Hayes co-produced with the likes of Justin Shave
(Etherfox, [Love] Tattoo) and Robert Conley (Hayes’ Tension
and The Spark) |
and mixing with the great Ash Howes (Nelly Furtado,
Dido, Kylie Minogue).
Hayes, best known by the world as the voice of
multi-platinum pop duo SAVAGE GARDEN, has made
himself a solo artist to reckon with. While this
album’s brace of potential hit singles will sit
perfectly next to Natasha Bedingfield and Maroon 5
on the radio, they come replete a sense of danger
not often heard within the genre-led pop |
|
field. They are built from truthful sentiment and a sense of
their own individuality.
Inspiration for this record is multi-faceted, from icons in
music and Victorian Science Fiction. Hayes has managed to
craft an album of intricate narratives and personal
confessions that simultaneously document his arrival at
peace within himself. Freedom has never tasted so good to
Hayes, having this in his personal, professional and
creative life for the first time in 10 years. This
masterpiece is a daring, theatrical, wise, wounded and
wonderful epiphany that represents his true maturation as an
artist. At 35 years old, Darren Hayes had turned into just
the pop star he always wanted to be, himself.
Darren Hayes is no stranger to success with over 25 million
records sold and five #1 singles. Now back with a new
double-disc album, Darren has just stepped off of a sold out
tour, and will be appearing in Entertainment Weekly, In
Touch Weekly, People Magazine, and on Extra! among others.
The fun, up-tempo first single, “On The Verge Of Something
Wonderful” also stars icon Janice Dickinson in the
accompanying video.
