The Paper Kites – If You Go There I Hope You Find It [Rust LP]

Description

Melbourne, Australia’s indie folk storytellers return to their core after 15 years together. If You Go There I Hope You Find It is The Paper Kites’ seventh studio album, following their Platinum-certified single “Bloom” and successful albums like Twelvefour and At the Roadhouse. Written at a friend’s farm in the Yarra Valley with picturesque mountain views, the album strips back to the original five-piece lineup after touring as an eight-piece. Their songs have been featured in pivotal scenes of Grey’s Anatomy, This Is Us, and Virgin River.

The 10-track collection blends acoustic fingerstyle guitar with lush harmonies across intimate reflections. “Change Of The Wind” explores personal transformation with soul-searching vulnerability, while “When The Lavender Blooms” adds arpeggiated guitar and bongos for a distinct ’90s guitar band rhythm. “Shake Off The Rain” serves as the bluesy anchor, while “Every Town” delivers melancholic reflections on love that lingers. Lead vocalist Sam Bentley and Christina Lacy’s voices intertwine throughout, supported by David Powys on guitar, Sam Rasmussen on bass, and Josh Bentley on drums.

This limited edition features 180g rust colored vinyl housed in a gatefold jacket. The warm, earthy tones mirror the Yarra Valley farm where the album was written, capturing The Paper Kites returning to what they do best.
