about

CATCH014:

No stranger to the Australian music scene after years spent wheeling madly across the country in indie-rock bands, 2016 signals a new beginning for Mickey Cooper, with the release of his debut album ‘Hit The Ceiling’. Recorded on a shoestring budget in a shoebox apartment on the Lower East Side of Manhattan in late 2015, ‘Hit The Ceiling’ is a collection of ten songs that dissects anxiety and documents the events and aftermath of a family breaking apart. The bare-bones recordings were taken to Bryce Goggin’s (Pavement, Joan As Police Woman, Ben Kweller) studio in Brooklyn, where his mixing expertise helped to highlight each melodic hook and pull, culminating in the kind of refined yet stripped-back record that recalls early Elliott Smith, Whiskeytown and Sharon Van Etten. Fiercely personal and universally relatable, ‘Hit The Ceiling’ showcases not only Cooper’s love of chords and melody, but a knack for wordplay that saw him collect the Dorothy Porter Award for Emerging Poets in 2015.
