Scotland-born and Melbourne-based Quinny’s unique blend of indie rock and alt-pop has built a reputation for a fun and breezy sound. The artist has spent 2024 gearing up towards his debut album Outer Monologue, receiving press acclaim and airplay on BBC radio. Collaborating with acclaimed songwriters the world over for both his songwriting and music videos, the new project is
Outer Monologue was created in collaboration with the likes of Robin Evans, Rowena Wise and many more, helping Quinny craft his lively soundscapes.
It’s infectious at the centre, with every lyric, guitar lick and bass groove having a distinctive earworm tendency. There are plenty of moments of gritty social commentary and melancholic poignance along the way, bringing Quinny’s songwriting to its most diverse yet.
Striking a middle ground between performance and authenticity leaves multiple layers of artistry to be peeled back from the surface of Quinny’s writing. In the highest highs, the emotions crack and a genuine passion for building the arrangements appears. It’s in these moments Quinny’s at his best, and in these moments he excites others for future projects. Highlight after highlight, the album is honest, quirky and artful.
