Well-known in their homeland NZ, the 4-piece made waves that splashed across the oceans to Australia, Japan, Canada and the UK back in 2002/03 with the release of their independently released debut, Good. Now they..re back with a release topped to the hilt with even more cracking synth-rock & hook laden pop tunes, and ready to see as much of the world as possible in 2004/05!The indie pop rockers had an amazing last year. In short, they toured Japan, played in front of fans across Europe, gave Aussie audiences a quick look at their live show during the Big Day Out, and still managed to spend some quality time at home in their garden shed to record a new album. Yep .. the majority of pre-production and engineering took place in a home studio in Grey Lynn, following in the same tradition of their first release.Fiji Baby is made up of 11 rich, quirky and fresh-sounding pop tunes that you..ll have no choice but to sing along to. The LP shows a more mature Goodshirt, but they..ve kept a hold of the same energy and fun that we saw on Good .. an album that thrust the band into the spotlight at home, hitting almost double-platinum sales. The single ..Sophie.. won the boys the Single Of The Year at the 2003 NZ Music Awards, and the album also spawned 2 other top 10 Rock Radio singles. All up, the album spent more than 7 months in the Top 50 charts in NZ. To be sure, on Fiji Baby the boys haven..t lost that edge that sees them rival the Dandy Warhols in fuzzy, keyboard-infused fun!
