New Holland's long awaited second
album Exploded Views will be released on 21 September 2009. Production standards for this second New Holland album represent a quantum leap from their first album, which had already garnered them a passionate cult
following. Exploded Views is a strong characteristic album
immediately accessible to various genre preferences, with each song
showcasing unique soudscapes and captivating arrangements.
The first single, catchy
pop hit “Something to Believe in” is currently playlisted
on 5fm, Highveld Stereo, KFM, OFM and various campus radio stations.
Vocalist TeeJay is
the owner of recording studio Coffeestainedvinyl Studios in Table
View. The Exploded Views album was recorded at Coffeestainedvinyl
Studios, and was co-produced by TeeJay with the rest of the band
and Neal Snyman.
About The Band
Like most of the other
Bellville bands, the four members met when they were in DF Malan Highschool.
But that's where the similarities end. TeeJay and Odendaal experimented
with some music of their own. TeeJay and Odendaal approached Gerdus
and Reyno to join them in a band. Having been booked for a tour,
the band had to come up with a name literally overnight. They drove
past a New Holland tractor and liked the idea of it. The name
also alludes to the post- “colonial” Dutch African Colony
that has spawned the new South Africa. From there the name New Holland.
New Holland
has been noted as one of SA's most popular bands on the live scene since
their debut in December 2007. They will introduce the new album with
a nationwide tour from 3 to 14 October. More info on dates and venues: www.NewHollandBand.co.za
“The reality is that they’re going to be big...you know what
that means. They’re never coming back. It’s up to you
whether that matters, whether they’ve got something for you to believe
in. Either way, they’ve got nothing to prove.”
