MORE INFO ABOUT THIS ARTIST AND TOUR:


  “There’s certain brilliance to Darren Hanlon. Under the polite and humble surface lies a spectacular songwriter”.   - A.H. Hayley, Mess & Noise


“The man who inspires ‘I wish I could have said that’ syndrome”. 
 – Bronwyn Thomspon, Rolling Stone


“Hanlon revels in the mundane with the childish exuberance of Jonathan Richman”. - Marc Hogan, Pitchfork


“When it comes to wordplay, even the illest of hip-hop MCs doesn’t come close to Mister Hanlon”.  – Baz McAlister, Time Off


Without further ado, pop luminary Darren Hanlon will release his long awaited fourth studio album I Will Love You At All on 16 July 2010 via Flippin’ Yeah Industries / MGM.


Darren will launch the album with a series of shows across Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Hobart, Adelaide, Fremantle, Pomona, Bangalow, Armidale, Newcastle, Katoomba and Bulli throughout August.


Darren’s live band will feature long time collaborator Corry Gray (keyboards) as well as Portland’s Shelley Short, who will join Darren in stage for vocal duties and open proceedings each night signing her alt-folk gems.


Following the 2006 release of his critically acclaimed album Fingertips and Mountaintops, Darren will also make a splash overseas releasing I Will Love You At All in the US on 21 September 2010 via seminal record label Yep Roc Records (home to Loudon Wainwright III, The Apples in Stereo, Ron Sexsmith and Sloan).


Written in a variety of exotic locations from Paris to Coonabarabran, the album was recorded at Type Foundry in Portland, Oregon by Adam Selzer (M Ward, She & Him, The Decemberists). Featuring Rachel Blumberg (Bright Eyes, M Ward, She & Him, The Decemberists) on drums – along with three additional drummers – the record also features long-time collaborator Cory Gray on keys and vocalists Shelley Short and Alia Farah.


Darren’s most honest and understated work to date, I Will Love You At All is a charming Australian songbook of gentle longing and reminiscence. Featuring the first single ’All These Things’, which is released via iTunes this Friday 28 May, the album is self described as Darren’s ’mature’ album. It is indeed further ripening of this uniquely rewarding storyteller. 


“Here is a man who loves words, not just the sound of his own voice. And he makes those words into stories that seem like conversations you’ve walked in on or lives you have lived, unaware that someone was watching while you did it”.


- Bernard Zuel, Sydney Morning Herald
