and Formidable Vegetable – In Real Life

Formidable Vegetable brings you their latest Turbocharged CyberVirtualMegaWorldVerse complete with all kinds of actual amazing things like… birds, friends, breathable air, tasty tastes, smelly smells and pretty much anything else you can dream of!

They call it…

IRL: In Real Life

In a world dominated by virtual technology, In Real Life takes us from distractedly bumping into lamp posts and falling down manholes whilst looking at our phones to dreaming up a new kind of world, where just about anything you can imagine is possible.

Complete with their trademark funky rad-ish beets, string & horn orchestras and A-list cameos, Formidable Vegetable’s sixth studio release is a cheerful push towards living life to its fullest out in the beautiful Real World.

Songs about staying positive against the odds, neuro-diversity/struggling to fit-in, the perils of greed and a nature-based New-Orleans-style birthday anthem, In Real Life is the band’s most joyous and versatile family album yet. 

Short Attention Span

Imagine the coolest interactive, multiplayer, team collaboration role-play game ever invented. Where you are actually you and your friends are actually them and there’s actual real stuff you can actually do! Sounds amazing right?

Short Attention Span is a kooky swipe/snap/scroll taking you from pixelated low-res virtual reality into a world of crisp, high-definition, Actual Reality, where you can stay as long as you like! A short electro-fusion snippet comparing life in the world of online tech and social media to the wonders of the Real World.

Bad Timing

Ever had one of those days where nothing seems to go to plan? It might not be your fault, maybe it’s just bad timing.

A funked-out, Bootsy-esque tune all about Formidable Vegetable frontman Charlie Mgee’s neuro-diverse way of going about things (which sometimes leads to getting right-timing wrong!)

Tell ‘Em You’re Dreaming

What if you could make anything you dreamed about happen in real life? Have you ever tried? It might be more possible than you think!

If anybody asks what you’re doing while you’re gazing off into the distance or doodling wildly on the margins of your homework, just tell ’em you’re dreaming!

A swingin’ jazzy number all about keeping a positive attitude and making dreams happen.

Fluff

You know that ‘L’ word that you sometimes just can’t say out loud without blushing or feeling weird? Well, Formidable Vegetable has saved the day with a made-up alternative that you can say as much as you like: Fluff!

This is an anthem for Fluff and all of the places where it’s most needed right now (hint: it’s everywhere!) featuring chart-topping Australian trumpet player Harry Angus from The Cat Empire.

Earthday Birthday

Formidable Vegetable thought it was time for a new birthday song that celebrated not just the person who’s birthday it is, but also the whole living world that helped them grow up to be an amazing, miraculous part of it. So that’s what they did.

A New Orleans-style street party jam dedicated to anyone who’s just turned another year older!

More

Sometimes Less is More, but not in the case of the guy singing this song! Things get a little ridiculous when he realises that maybe he’s gotten a little more ‘More’ than he bargained for.

An epic Broadway-style show-tune about the perils of greed.
