Geoffrey O'Connor album launch at Arthur Art Bar

Geoffrey O'Connor (Naarm/Mel) will be visiting Adelaide to launch his new album 'I Love What We Do' at Arthur Art Bar with Dom Sensitive and Somewhere.

Melbourne’s celebrated suave-wave songsmith Geoffrey O’Connor has returned with his fourth solo album 'I Love What We Do', on February 14th, 2025. His first for much loved label Dinosaur City, 'I Love What We Do' sees an emboldened Geoffrey expanding his musical palette and collaborating with some of Melbourne’s finest instrumentalists. "The album involves more guest musicians than anything I’ve been involved with previously,” says Geoffrey, “including harp, flute, singing saw, cello, viola, violin, choral harmonies and duet vocals." Geoffrey’s 2021 album 'For As Long As I Can Remember' of darkly romantic duets with artists such as Laura Jean, HTRK’s Jonnine Standish, and Becky Sui Zhen, and was awarded album of the week with 3RRR and 2SER, and earned Best Song and Best Pop Act nominations at the Music Victoria Awards.

"O'Connor's penchant for '80s synth-pop gets a technicolour rendering; he's like a cut-price Bacharach or Pino Donaggio in the way he gets these songs billowing with strings, woodwinds and choral harmonies. The effect is all atmosphere, such as with the lilting Balaeric exotica of 'With You I Have Time', or the evocative songwriting on the title track, where he sings lines such as: "I've been a midday movie, a passing of time, a cosmopolitan, a vodka and lime". - Sydney Morning Herald
