Midday Prayers (LP)

The Fuzzy Robes return with their sophomore effort Midday Prayers, a natural continuation of the group's psychedelic approach to adapting the New Zealand Prayer Book, He Karakia Mihinare o Aotearoa for the modern ear.

Midday Prayers follows their 2021 debut Night Prayers, a strong work drawing comparisons to The Flaming Lips in their decentralised sonic landscape towards an acknowledgement of the passing day and into restful night, dwelling unafraid in the arms of God. Recorded between a retreat house in Ōtautahi's beautiful Scarborough Hill and an unfurnished flat in Christchurch East, Midday Prayers strikes the duality of natural beauty and an urbane, turbulent existence.
