Wons Phreely – 'The World Has a Bank Account'

Wons Phreely – ‘The World Has a Bank Account’ (mp3)

Perth singer-songwriter Justin Wonsley Snowball aka Wons Phreely seems to have fledged off the radar since the release of his glorious debut The Rules of Nature EP two years ago. He’s back with his first track since signing to Ivy League, ‘The World Has a Bank Account’ which was written and recorded on his globe trotting adventures across Manchester, London, Berlin & New York.

“I was doing a lot of new things and getting right into some classic and current hip-hop and the way those artists observe and react to life around them” he says.

The track was inspired by a girl Wons Phreely met a Patrick Wolf concert.

“(She) proceeded to tell me about her life and took me on a journey that lasted a lot longer than it should have really,” he explains. “It’s about how she told me her plan to settle down with a rich guy so that she could use his money to basically save the world”.

A cleverly crafted track backed up by fun beats, prime melodic fare and witty lyrical banter, ‘The World Has a Bank Account’ is an great demonstration of Won’s buoyant approach to pop.

Channelling casual geek swagger and a mouthful of wit, this is the type of guy I’d take home to meet my mum.
