Harvey Pink is a Melbourne, Australia musician, and his album "Everybody Digs Harvey Pink" released on February 2025. The piano on "C'mon Inside" immediately made me think of the Charlie Ivan Band. And the piano remains an important/forward instrument throughout the album. "Everybody Digs Harvey Pink" was also produced and mastered by Dylan Young (who has a new Way Dynamic album coming out on Spoilsport Records) and Snowy - who also did the same for the Charlie Ivan Band LP.

But, really, this album veers in many other directions. First, there is a clear pop feel to some of the songs. Another immediate impression was Mull Historical Society, and then finally The High Llamas (or Peel Dream Magazine/Healing Potpourri).

I don't know why I'm surprised by this - given the sheer amount of music I listen to it's inevitable that I forget about bands I've posted here.

But this is the 3rd post about the work of this Melbourne, Australia based band that serves as the vehicle for the work of Dylan Young. In the past Lachlan Denton served as the drummer. Liam "Snowy" Halliwell mastered the last album "So Familiar" and plays saxophone here. Good Morning's Stefan Blair co-produced and engineered this. So Dylan Young has connections to some of Australia's best musicians

"Material" grooves and sounds more indie pop than other songs that are clearly influenced, as the Bandcamp page states, by The Beach Boys and Nillson. Previous posts also mentioned Field Music and Steely Dan.
