Pajama Club Almost Impress with “TNT for Two”

I haven’t been the greatest fan of Neil Finn’s latest venture Pajama Club. However I always find myself coming back to the band’s music, trying to find the genius that I know has to be in there. This is the guy who gave us Crowded House and Split Enz after all!

I wouldn’t say I’m hearing genius in their latest single “TNT for Two,” but there are certainly glimpses of it. The song may be their most accessible yet, especially stripped back as it is in this live recording at Round Head Studios.

Can you dig it?

Neil Finn talks Pajama Club Album

Pajama Club, the self-titled album from Neil Finn and his wife Sharon’s new musical venture, hits stores today.

The music we’ve heard is a real departure from the works of Split Enz and Crowded House, and that’s rubbed a few folks up the wrong way. However this video gives us a bit more of an insight into what we’re in for.

Neil and Sharon take us through the disc track by track, explaining the stories behind the songs they’ve created. I must admit, these snippets still aren’t floating my boat but I’m intrigued by the creative process behind them.

Are you excited by Neil’s new musical direction?

Neil Finn Tours New Pajama Club

Neil Finn’s latest musical venture is a family affair. He’s teamed up with his wife of 29 years Sharon to create Pajama Club. The idea was born over many nights spent jamming in PJs with a few good wines. Of course only brilliance can come from such laid back beginnings!

Neil and Sharon are joined in the band by Kiwi singer-songwriter Sean Donnelly and Alana Skyring, who you might remember from The Grates. They’ve laid down an album, which will be released digitally, on CD, and on vinyl in August.

Before that though, you can have a little taste with “From A Friend To a Friend,” which is available for free download from the Pajama Club website. If you like what you hear make sure you get out and see the band on their very first tour in June.

11 June 2011 – The Northern, Byron Bay
12 June 2011 – The Zoo, Brisbane
13 June 2011 – Oxford Art Factory, Sydney
15 June 2011 – The Corner Hotel, Melbourne
