RECENTLY RELEASED:
The Tom Bosley Experience proudly announce their second album, "Who's Your Daddy".
Named to celebrate the fatherhood of band member Peter Lewis and TTBE's love of the cheesy side of life, the album is a reflection of the growth of this ethic as well as a exploration of their sound in more mature metaphors.
The fun is always there: Tracks such as "Cheese-O-Riffic", "My Ignorance of Dairy" and "Studfinger" reflect their manic approach to synthpop, and are guaranteed to get fingers clicking and laughter bubbling.
Also TTBE have followed up on their dark side, bringing 80s darkwave electro back with driving black hits such as "Too Late for Prozac" and "Self Examination Circus".
For those late evening, hazy, contemplative moods TTBE have produced some more of their fine work in the ambient genre: from the mystical "When the Running is Done" to the haunting middle section of "You Believe Me, Don't You" (which includes samples from underground New Zealand movie Belief) and "Welcome to My Ultraworld", in which we seem to move through slow, still waters of feeling and experience.

Wellington writer Jacqueline Brasfield says:
"Imagine the technicolour landscape of the dream world - a place where the sweetest smiles mask sinister intentions and madness is just beyond the next rolling hill.
"Who's Your Daddy" offers a surreal soundtrack fitting the complexity of inner-space with musical themes both silly and sublime. "My Ignorance of Dairy" features an elegantly cheerful melody snaking seamlessly over sultry vocals, bump and grind beats and the rhythmic hand clap of an unseen voyeur. "Too Late for Prozac" takes an introspective turn in the manner of 80s dark wave and "When the Running Is Done" is as dreamy as the perfect summer twilight of our collective childhoods.
It's as evocative as it is eclectic, a dazzling collage woven of layered keys, syncopated beats and deftly chosen samples. This is the stuff that dreams are made of, sometimes innocent, sometimes devious - and always more vibrant than our mundane waking world.
