Originally Appeared In

Toy Boats cradles this season of youth with an aroma of hope, heart and a sense of purity that is charmingly raw. His songs are emotional yet avoid sallow self-pity adopted by many acoustic artists and exchanges the unnecessarily verbose with lo-fi simplicity. Enveloping the grace of a young Bon Iver and eliminating the agony of Bright Eyes, Toy Boats embodies a nostalgic journey where we are all invited, stopping to smell the blossoms along the way. Recorded by Sam Johnson at 3 Phase studios in Melbourne, April 13th see’s Toy Boats' Resist Records debut with an EP entitled Diamond Teeth.
