Tape Echoes Podcast

Today I'm joined by Dylan Baddeley and Carlos Tinsey of Kitschen Boy: A brilliant indie rock band from Melbourne / Naarm producing tracks full of jangly guitars, dreamy synths, and loads of energy. As they gear up for their first international tour, they've just released their new single - "The Perfect Excuse" - ahead of their upcoming EP "Now Arriving At Panic Station". This was such a fun conversation - I highly encourage you to support the release and catch them on tour.* Listen on Spotify* Listen on Apple Podcasts* Listen on Google PodcastsShow Notes* Listen to the new single here* Kitschen Boy on LinktreeMusic RecommendationsCarlos* Oshin - Diiv* Turn On The Bright Lights - Interpol* Silent Alarm - Bloc Party* Creatures - Sunbeam Sound MachineDylan* Somersault - Beach Fossil* Favourite Worst Nightmare - Arctic Monkeys* Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not - Arctic Monkeys* Cola - A Beacon SchoolKB Tour Dates* April 24 at Loons, Christchurch, NZ* April 26 at San Fran, Wellington, NZ* April 27 at Tuning Fork, Auckland, NZ* May 23 at Black Bear, Brisbane, QLD* May 24 at The Lansdowne, Sydney, NSW* May 25 at Northcote Social Club, Melbourne, VICTape Echoes is produced by Prototape - Go Fast & Commit!
