Lawrence Arabia’s Chant Darling is available on vinyl for the first time!
Chant Darling was released worldwide in 2009/10 on Bella Union Records and features the popular song “Apple Pie Bed,” which won the 2009 APRA Silver Scroll, New Zealand’s top song writing award. The album also won the inaugural Taite Music Prize in early 2010.
Throughout 2009/10, Lawrence and his band performed almost 100 shows in Europe and North America in support of Chant Darling, including tours with Beach House, Cate Le Bon, Flight Of The Conchords and Crowded House, sessions for BBC Radio 2, 4 and 6Music, an NPR Tiny Desk Concert and a KCRW Morning Becomes Eclectic session.
