Recorded and produced by Tim Kevin and Anthony The and mixed by Tim Whitten (Augie March, Powderfinger, 78 Saab) and Youth Group's good friend Chris Walla (Death Cab For Cutie), 'The Night Is Ours' saw Youth Group employ a less than traditional recording process.
Over a couple of months late last year, the band holed up in a near derelict 1920s mess hall on Sydney’s harbour to create the record. They turned a vacated building into a studio, and brought in all of their own gear to create an inimitable recording environment which allowed them to work at their own pace. This unusual approach helped to shape the 10 songs that make up the personality of 'The Night Is Ours.'
The band recently launched the album to media with a brilliant showcase aboard the MV Cape Don, a boat moored on Sydney Harbour a short distance from where the album was recorded. Under a stormy sky, they left a lasting impression: "Inspiring and memorable… Toby Martin is surely one of the best talents in this country" – Sun Herald. |
