Since returning to the music scene in Eskimo Joe, everything the Western Australian rockers have released has been gold. Their latest banger “Miracle Cure” is so exception. From a stripped-back beginning, it builds into an epic feelgood anthem.
“‘Miracle Cure’ is about the search for redemption and how only love can pull us back from the edge,” frontman Kav Temperley explained. “It’s about hope and the vulnerability that comes with trusting someone to save you. This song is about confronting our flaws and finding strength in love and hope, even if the cure were searching for might not exist. “
The music video, shot by cinematographer David Le May, features footage of the band performing at the Old Customs House in Walyalup/Fremantle and a little Australian Gothic imagery. Think Picnic at Hanging Rock meets Nosferatu.
Eskimo Joe recently played an acoustic gig at Darwin Entertainment Centre, and I hear there may be a few more of those stripped-back gigs in the works. Follow the Eskies on Facebook to hear about all their upcoming shows as they’re announced.
