Product Description
Debut studio album by Irish rock group The Academic, entitled ‘Tales From The Backseat’.
Recorded between Los Angeles and London with producer Tim Pagnotta (Dreamcar, Walk The Moon, Saint Motel), ‘Tales From The Backseat’ offers some of The Academic’s most accomplished songwriting yet. From the anthemic alt-rock smash ‘Bear Claws’ to the infectious, joyful exuberance of ‘Permanent Vacation’ to the punchy, swaying earworm and recent ‘Hottest Record’ at BBC Radio 1 ‘Why Can’t We Be Friends’, the songs take aim at the turbulence of growing into your twenties – loss of innocence, wariness of adulthood, unease with and ultimate acceptance of the inevitability of growing up.
