Edit history

The New Australian Hymn Book is the debut album from Sydney band Hootch. This genre-defying record is the result of a collaboration between vocalist Carly St Clair, multi-instrumentalist Chris van der Hoven and virtuoso guitarist Marc Zovaro, aided by a few select friends. Starting out with modest expectations of commercial success and a respectful disregard for mainstream trends, the trio produced an album of music intending to sound like the music they have always wanted to make. As it turns out…they are not the only ones.
