Single Review: Tigertown – ‘What You Came Here For’

Review by Natalie Salvo
On his most recent tour Bob Evans slapped his head and practically called himself crazy for allowing such a young, talented and attractive band open for him. They were Sydneysiders, Tigertown. And for those that don’t know, they’re a quintet of family members and couples that are like Fleetwood Mac but only if you like your pop music with a little less romantic confusion.

The band are a thoroughly consistent one as new single, What You Came Here For proves. The latest track from their forthcoming as yet unnamed third EP is a continuation of the ideas and sounds that impressed fans on their previous releases, Before The Morning and their eponymous debut.

At 3:22 the mood is once again upbeat and summery here. The harmonies are also very strong and sound like they could’ve been bellowed off the top of some high mountain top, while the guitars jangle like wind chimes and the synths shimmer like a precious gem. The song is equally hooky and expansive and would not feel out of place alongside their producer, Liam Judson’s other work with Cloud Control and Belles Will Ring.

On What You Came Here For Tigertown once again do precisely what they do best without veering too far off the beaten track.
