DYLAN STOREY – Out of the Soup (Self-released)
A unique voice in New Zealand music, Dylan Storey makes music that’s as traditional in its 70’s-esque, blues drenched rock as it is clearly now, and clearly from our fair land. While there’s no doubt here that Storey is a competent musician (he’s travelled the world with music as his breadwinner) it seems that lyrics are equally important to his songs. Challenging religion, philosophies, social norms and WWII stories told to him by his grandfather, and evolution (the inspiration for the album name) are all part of what makes Out of the Soup set apart from other records in the genre.
