CORDRAZINE RETURN FOR A STRICTLY ONE OFF SHOW<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sometimes life gets in the way\u2026.<\/p>\n

2011 saw Cordrazine release the long awaited sophomore album \u2018Always Coming Down\u2019, a full decade after their debut album \u2018From Here to Wherever\u2019. But as quickly as they reappeared, the band disappeared again after only three (count them, THREE) live performances.<\/p>\n

Ten years before, when on the cusp of greatness, the original line-up dissolved immediately after the release of their top 10 debut album. This time around, the disappearing act was just as swift and perhaps a little similar.<\/p>\n

Cordrazine has always been anchored around Hamish Cowan, a troubled singer-songwriter with that unbelievable voice. When Hamish suffers, so does the band\u2019s career. In February 2011 Cordrazine completed an exceptional video for the title track from \u2018Always Coming Down\u2019, helmed by Cordrazine\u2019s guitar playing auteur Nick Batterham. Shot on a chilly day in a cold suburban swimming pool, giving Hamish a severe cold in the process. The problem was, by the time it came around to the scheduled release, Hamish had gone AWOL. Again. Watch the video here:\u00a0http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SGX_-GUDCCc<\/a><\/p>\n

So what\u2019s Hamish been up to since then? He\u2019s been through a distressing work accident, a marriage breakup, escaped to Europe, taken a job as a lifeguard at a Bulgarian summer camp, undertaken numerous triathlons (his latest obsession) and occasionally dipped back to Australia, but otherwise he has relocated to Edinburgh.<\/p>\n

Coinciding with a brief return visit to these shores by Mr Cowan, Cordrazine will play a strictly one off show. And that\u2019s also provided the perfect excuse to finally release the almost lost video for \u2018Always Coming Down\u2019.<\/p>\n

If you have any inkling of the majesty of Cordrazine in full flight, you will try and get to their\u00a0only show<\/span>\u00a0of the last two years, and most likely their only show for some time to come.<\/p>\n
