The Green Child is the long distance musical collaboration of \u003cstrong\u003eMikey Young\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eRaven Mahon\u003c\/strong\u003e, who met in 2013 when their bands, \u003cem\u003eTotal Control\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eGrass Widow\u003c\/em\u003e played a show in Oakland, California.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey started writing songs together in Australia in 2014 and the project has been on a slow burn since. Their self-titled debut album is the culmination of a few years of putting ideas together internationally and periodically recording in \u003cstrong\u003eMikey's\u003c\/strong\u003e home studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSome of the lyrical content and the band's name was inspired by \u003cem\u003eHerbert Read's\u003c\/em\u003e 1935 utopian, communist, sci-fi novel called The Green Child. With such a choice name, it’s no surprise that The Green Child draw their sound from an illusory past as much as they stalk into pastures new.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBroadly retro-futuristic in scope, verdant acres of lushly evocative synthesizers and blippy drum machines underpin most of their upbeat yet decidedly uncanny songs. \u003cstrong\u003eRaven's\u003c\/strong\u003e calmly scenic and measured vocal flits like a will-o’-the-wisp throughout the tracks, proffering a guiding hand as she walks us through the often eerie, electronic concoctions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Upset The Rhythm","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50471448707403,"sku":"1023265","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/the-green-child","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
