NO ENCORE 295: HOUSEPLANTS | DRY GOODS | TRACK X TRACK
Oh yes indeed, it's time for another TRACK X TRACK special on NO ENCORE.
This time around, Dave Hanratty is joined by Paul Noonan and Daithí O'Dronaí, collectively known as HousePlants.
The guys have just released debut album Dry Goods and so we figured it wouldn't be the worst idea in the world to gather round a very large table and go through every song on the record, obtaining the stories behind the music and beyond.
On this episode, Paul and Daithí discuss how and why HousePlants came to be, the importance of music therapy, why they wear those flashy suits, and why cycling and singing might be more tricky than you imagine. We also learn of Daithí's tinnitus diagnosis and how that played its own role in proceedings, in addition to the overall character of the music that informs this new project.
Dry Goods is available on gorgeous vinyl via the official HousePlants Bandcamp page.
Tracklist:
- 'What's With All The Pine?'
- 'Window Pane'
- 'Companero'
- 'No Stopping Me'
- 'Mannequin'
