You Am I’s Tim Rogers has been secretly working away in the studio with The Bamboos and has now revealed the first song.
‘Easy’ is officially the debut song from Tim Rogers and The Bamboos album ‘The Rules of Attraction’ out May 22, 2015.
“If someone says ‘Hey man, how do you write songs?” I say, “Just listen and daydream”. If someone says to you “This is the way you write songs”, ignore them. You just have to listen and daydream,” Rogers said in a statement.
Rogers worked with The Bamboos on their 2012 release ‘Medicine Man’ contributing vocals to the track ‘I Got Burned’.
“Tim is Dean Moriarty to my Sal Paradise,” says Lance Ferguson of The Bamboos. “I need Dean in my life because I gravitate towards being Sal. Kylie (Bamboos lead vocalist) and I are both very shy people inherently and what has been great playing with Tim is he’s naturally such an extrovert, one of the great men in Australian Music History – and present history! It’s exciting to see where that takes us.”
Tim Rogers and The Bamboos will tour together in June and July.
