Foolish Enough (feat. Laura Jean)
“One of the more quietly captivating voices in Aussie indie pop” – Marc Hogan, SPIN “O’Connor swirls sex and death into destiny and gulps it down” – Jake Cleland, Pitchfork “Glammy, elegant synthpop” – Bill Pearis, Brooklyn Vegan Melbourne’s celebrated suave-wave songsmith Geoffrey O’Connor will return with his fourth solo album 'I Love What We Do', set for release February 14th, 2025. His first for much loved label Dinosaur City, 'I Love What We Do' sees an emboldened Geoffrey expanding his musical palette and collaborating with some of Melbourne’s finest instrumentalists. The title track 'I Love What We Do', which Geoffrey describes as "a big song and dance about my own mediocrity and the joy of finding someone to share it all with", offers the first taste of his most collaborative body of work to date. “The album involves more guest musicians than anything I’ve been involved with previously,” says Geoffrey, “including harp, flute, singing saw, cello, viola, violin, choral harmonies and duet vocals. Following my most recent duets-only album, it felt like a good idea to again commit to a new and distinctive sonic palette.” Geoffrey’s 2021 album 'For As Long As I Can Remember' was a collection of darkly romantic duets with artists such as Laura Jean, HTRK’s Jonnine Standish, and Becky Sui Zhen, and was awarded album of the week with 3RRR and 2SER. Geoffrey in turn received Best Song and Best Pop Act nominations at the 2021 Music Victoria Awards.
