Nick Mulvey – ‘Star Nation’
It’s been a little while between visits from Mulvey. He last performed in Australia in 2014 as part of that year’s Splendour in the Grass lineup, along with a few shows supporting fellow English singer-songwriter Ben Howard. “[Mulvey] treated the appreciative audience to a completely acoustic set of his best material, expertly looping sections of music to create a marvellously full sound,” Music Feeds said of Mulvey’s set during the Melbourne date, at the Palais Theatre.
In the time since, he’s released two albums – 2017’s Wake Up Now and New Mythology, which was released in June last year after being previewed with single ‘Star Nation’. “For me this album is about showing up and not running away. From myself, from these times, from taking responsibility,” Mulvey said of his latest album when announcing it last year.
“t’s about recognising privilege, it’s about being real. [The album] is about grounding: this planet, my life – and it’s about bringing the spiritual ideas down to earth, properly applying them.”
