Upon listening to Tay Oskee's music, his deep connection to the natural world becomes unmissable.
Sewn throughout his heartfelt lyrics are traces of his past, present and future—from his formative years living amongst the Yolngu people of North East Arnhem Land, to the tropical beauty of his hometown Mission Beach, to the seductive call of the horizon. Adding swaying, breezy rhythms to soaring melodies, Tay traverses a spectrum from chilled beach tunes to punchy folk, bolstered by his signature instrumentation. On his latest single, Black Smoke, Tay adds one more vital ingredient to this recipe: simplicity.
Uplifting and irresistibly catchy, Black Smoke is pure radio gold. At the encouragement of friend and producer Garrett Kato (Ziggy Alberts, Kyle Lionhart) Tay wrote the song with the deliberate intention of it being a single. Taking an old melody that had revealed itself to him while surfing, Tay took to the challenge with enthusiasm and vigour, building it into the most epic chorus of his career. Where normally he would untether his creativity through intricate and unpredictable arrangements, Black Smoke had stricter parameters. Stripped of all complexity and frills, its grand melodic hooks do all the talking.
Whether delivered with the sonic weight of a full band or the intimacy of a solo performance, Tay's personality and worldliness shines through the most on stage.
