How did you get started in music/as a band?
We got started in music learning our instruments privately at a young age, as a band we met through high school and bonded over a love for similar bands, and thought we’d give making our own songs a crack.

Elroy - Paradise by Cove Street
Ben - Lunchtime by Spacey Jane
Nic - Butterfly by Adrianne Lenker
Orlando - Forever Now by Cold Chisel
Who are you inspired by?
We’ve got a range of inspirations differing between each member. These include Ocean Alley, Peach Pit, Backseat Lovers, The Strokes and Rum Jungle
What has your favourite performance/gig been that you’ve played? And what made it your favourite?
Our single launch for the release of our song Valencia at the Crown and Anchor has been our favourite performance so far. We just had so much fun celebrating sharing our song with the world and the big crowd made it an amazing experience.
What advice would you give other young people who are thinking of starting their music journey?
Get yourself out there! Be social, always be making new friends in the scene, it’s the best way to build a good network that will benefit you in so many ways!
