Mick Harvey – a bad seed?

Once a Bad Seed…

If you’re a music lover, then you need to know rock’s ultimate wingman, Mick Harvey. As a member of Australian post-punk rock group, The Birthday Party, Mick Harvey claimed a spot in music history. His long and distinguished career has included stints as an accomplished arranger and film composer, as well as producer, multi-instrumentalist and singer. And then there’s the small fact that he’s been working together with rock ‘n roll god, Nick Cave, from the start. In other words, he’s a pretty big deal.

Mick’s highly-anticipated fourth solo album, Two of Diamonds, is an eclectic collection of songs that he has interpreted in his own distinct and emotive style—some are his own, while others cover distinguished songwriters, like PJ Harvey (who he collaborated with on her album, Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea).

RANDOM TANGENT: Nick Cave was once romantically linked to PJ Harvey. Wonder who introduced them…
