Pandemic Rising by Great Earthquake
Noah Symons: drums, bass, guitar, vocals, melodica, synth.
Let's unite in the feelings of anxiety, isolation, lockdown stress, covid symptoms, and getting used to a new normal as Melbourne's Great Earthquake (AKA Noah Symons) addresses these shared feelings and emotions on his fifth album Pandemic Rising.
What started as a bit of a joke exploring themes around the pandemic turned into a fully fledged concept album – content and inspiration flowing freely for Noah at his lockdown HQ in Upwey in Victoria's Dandenong Ranges.
A borrowed synth was the only change in the usual sounds coming from the Great Earthquake palette of drums, guitar, bass, melodica and vocals.
Pandemic Rising is out December 10 on cassette and digital via Lost And Lonesome.
