Review-A singer-songwriter raised in Belfast but who now calls Australia home, Andy White has a career going back 20 years, including ALT (a trio with Tim Finn and Hothouse Flowers’ Liam O’Maonlai) over a decade ago, working with people as diverse as Peter Gabriel and Christine Anu, with eight solo albums along the way and fame in unexpected places like Italy. So, GarageBand? It’s not referring to humble origins, but to a piece of Apple music-making software used for this album, begun in Melbourne and buffed up in Britain’s Real World Studios with producer John Leckie (everybody from Stone Roses to Radiohead), with other bits done as far afield as Anchorage, Vancouver and Correggio. For all that, the songs here are not about the process. With themes as diverse as love, travel and politics, White enlivens his songs with all kinds of cultural references - George Orwell, Patti Smith, Dennis Hopper, Johnny Depp and more – and broadens his direct singer-songwriter approach with flavours from rock and blues to world music. But, as befits his background, he’s best as a troubadour with stories to tell and he does that well here, as you’d expect.
