Harvey Sutherland‘s debut LP, Boy, is this week’s PBS Feature Album.
Producer and bandleader Mike Katz has been releasing music under the name Harvey Sutherland since 2013, and refers to his jams as ‘neurotic funk’. Boy is a hypermodern take on funk music recorded between London, Los Angeles and Katz’s own Swimming Pool studios with a host of hotshot session musicians and a string of guests.
Boy is powered by Katz’s sense of live musicality, but it’s also something deeply personal. Katz explains he made most of the record “in a circular loop between my studio and my psychotherapist”, and has shared that throughout the writing and recording process, Boy became a quest for identity.
Tune in to PBS all this week to hear tracks from Boy, and PBS Members have the chance to win a copy of the album on vinyl via Tuesday’s e-newsletter so make sure you check your inbox! Winners will need to be able to pick the LP up from our Collingwood studios.
