MEDIA RELEASE
HOME GROWN ROOTS VOLUME 3 AUGUST 2008
Excelusive Tracks, New Formats and Bonus Content are all part of the mix for the
third in the well loved series;
Recently the world has witnessed an unprecedented resurgence of acoustic, blues,
roots and reggae artists with the likes of Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, The Waifs
and Australia's favourite, John Butler, -with a previously unreleased track
now featured on Home Grown Roots Compilation Volume 3 along with Paul Kelly (who
also has an exclusive track), Ash Grunwald, Mia Dyson and Karl Broadie.
Showcasing Australia's best artists in the blues and roots scene, Home Grown
Roots is full of heart felt tunes for the new millennium. This is what modern
blues and roots is all about.
"Fully hooked up and brilliant Music - This disc is the perfect way of getting
the cream of the indie music crop." - poprepublic August 2008
"There's a hammock, warm, viscous air, and the scuttle of a wave, heaving
against the coral beach. Lie back to this outstanding compilation and you'll
dream summer" - Drum Media - Vol 2 Review 2007
Due for release on the 18th of August via the good folks at MGM Distribution
this volume will be the first ever compilation on the new USB DDA format (which
sees its first use for the new Sneaky Sound System album) and will include bonus
tracks and content as well as CD in all good stores and downloads via iTunes,
Bigpond and other etailer sites.
