Brand new reissue with a brand new vinyl colour to mark the 6th anniversary of Phantastic Ferniture’s debut self-titled album.

Fronted by Australian singer-songwriter Julia Jacklin, she explains her desire to create the band: “I’d gone straight into folk music, so every experience I’d had on stage was playing sad music with a guitar in my hand. I thought, I would love to know what it’s like to make people feel good and dance.” For Jacklin, it turns out that “it feels really good. It’s like having an alter ego.”

Jacklin is joined by Elizabeth Hughes on lead guitar, Ryan K Brennan on drums, and Tom Stephens on bass. The band’s first single, Fuckin ‘n’ Rollin, was described by The 405 as “impossibly cool”, and their self-titled debut album “comes close to garage-rock perfection” (Loud and Quiet). As likely to make you dance as shed a tear, this debut is full of Jacklin’s pain-pricked cut-to-the-quick flair, intoxicated by the upbeat instrumentalism of bandmates Hughes and Brennan.

Their debut self-titled album was produced by Brennan, recorded at Sydney’s Studios 301, Defwolf and One Flight Up, with additional vocals tracked at The Sitting Room in New Zealand.

Following positive reaction to early singles Fuckin ‘n’ Rollin and Gap Year, Phantastic Ferniture was released in 2018 via Polyvinyl Record Co., Transgressive Records, Universal Music Canada and the bands own Make Out Records in Australia/NZ.

In staying true to the band’s ethics, and the spontaneity and passion that birthed it, there’s zero expectations or strict deadlines, save the ones they set for themselves.
