February Release - "I'll Never Find Another You"

“I’ll Never Find Another You” is a well-known song by Australian group, The Seekers. My favorite description of The Seekers is from Ian McFarlane (an Australian music historian) who described their style as “concentrated on a bright, up-tempo sound, although they were too pop to be considered strictly folk and too folk to be rock.” Their little niche in the music world didn’t stop them from topping the charts with hits like “Georgy Girl” and “I’ll Never Find Another You,” which brings us right back to our release for February.

“I’ll Never Find Another You” was released in 1964 and flew up the charts, hitting top ten in multiple countries.

Once again, we carted Vic’s 12-string Ovation guitar up to Jimmy so we could capture the sound of the original, which featured both a 12-string and 6-string acoustic guitar. Jimmy nailed those signature licks from both guitars, in two separate keys no less.

Jimmy Mac loved the song so much, we let him take another turn on the lead vocal for the male range and he did a great job as he always does.

I have had this song on my “wants” list forever, so you get to hear me on the female range. It's fitting that we release this beautiful song on Valentine's Day. This release is dedicated to my "Silent Partner," Vic Kaaria. Without his support, Chic Recordings would still be something I dream about instead of a reality.

Jimmy and I added background vocals for each other’s tracks, doing our best to capture the folksy sound of the original.

CHIC 1092 in the male vocal range features the vocal by our music man and sound engineer, Jim MacDonald.

CHIC 2092 in the female vocal range features producer, Shauna Kaaria.
