We Come From The Same Place

We Come From The Same Place

Allo Darlin' are set to release their eagerly awaited new album ''We Come From the Same Place'' this October. The third full-length recording from the much loved Anglo-Australian four-piece is made up of smart, beautiful pop music, with lyrics that resonate with experience and melodies that chime, echo and soar. The album combines the eagerness, urgency and immediacy of their 2010 self-titled debut with the contemplation, sophistication and ambition of their 2012 follow-up ''Europe,'' and yet it goes beyond either both sonically and in the song-writing. Allo Darlin' were formed after Australian Elizabeth Morris arrived in London and bought a ukulele from the Duke of Uke shop in Shoreditch. She began writing music and was soon joined by fellow Australian Bill Botting (bass), Paul Rains (guitar), and Michael Collins (drums). Their debut album attracted many plaudits including being named No. 2 record of the year by online retailer eMusic, and a glowing 1,200 word essay by Robert Forster of The Go-Betweens in the Australian critical magazine, ''The Monthly.'' Their second album ''Europe'' scored 8.1 on Pitchfork and was made USA Today's Album Of The Week. Their release, along with their joyous and effervescent live shows, have seen them build an intensely loyal and ever increasing fan base. Third albums can be difficult beasts, but by remaining true to themselves Allo Darlin' have side-stepped the pitfalls to produce a wonderful record - thoughtful and exciting and exquisitely played that will please their existing army of fans and newcomers alike. On first reading the album's title may seem enigmatic, but from the very personal nature of Elizabeth Morris finely drawn vignettes to the more universal connections between the band and their audience, its meaning will be obvious to all who fall under the spell of this magical band.
