Boy Bye is the first song Noosa musicians Ampersand wrote as a band.
Back in 2023, they threw it together as their audition for Caloundra Music Festival and they’ve been refining it ever since.
“The song itself is about ’situationships’ and learning when to let go instead of hanging on,“ keyboard player Jarrod Tutbury said.
Boy Bye will be available to stream on Spotify, Amazon and wherever you listen to your music from 18 April.
Co-written and arranged by the entire Ampersand team, Boy Bye features vocals, lyrics and melody by Katie Brown and Isi Semmler, keyboards and chords by Jarrod Tutbury, bass by Jed Green, drums and percussion by Orlando Hamilton-Craig and guitar by featured guest artist Doc Hamilton.
Recorded, engineered and produced by Scott Mathison and engineered by Justin Tresidder at Yama Nui Studios and mastered by Paul Blakey, this single’s recording was made possible by the Australian Government’s Regional Arts Fund, provided through Regional Arts Australia, administered in Queensland by Flying Arts Alliance.
The release of this single is also partially funded by Noosa Council’s Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) Grant.
It is the third single from Ampersand’s debut EP, set to be released in mid-2024.
