… ‘I Heard They Eat Cigarettes Records’ Label Launch
Jarrad Lee Jackson is the maverick behind World Wild – an Australian artist fusing a little bit of 80s funk with synth, pop and electronica to bring you the perfect soundtrack to lazy summers spent at the beach, catching waves and rays under the sun.
Jarrad draws an eclectic range of inspiration from the likes of Beastie Boys, George Michael and Duran Duran to produce tracks that are as captivating and curious as they are cool. With a sound reminiscent of other cult surf bands such as Wavves without as much of the angst, World Wild is one to watch this summer.
‘Coast to Coast’ is a nostalgic tribute to the 80s Californian skate and surf scene, accompanied of course with a super catchy synth track. So infectious it’s one not to be missed performed in the flesh.
World Wild is signed to another emerging game changer – I Heard They Eat Cigarettes Records. With a vision to create a platform for progressive and experimental artists such as Jarrad to set the world ablaze with their music, this is also a debut for the label which has grown from the cult Melbourne street wear and nightlife scene.
Jarrad, former Drummer from Epitaph Punk band Dangerous! – will be launching Coast to Coast as his debut single with I Heard They Eat Cigarettes Records at Yah Yah’s in Melbourne on Friday the 26th December. With the festive season and the sweltering Australian summer in full swing, it’s the perfect chance to grab some friends and a cold beer and get caught up in the hype that is World Wild.
