</b>as part of <b>Filter Magazine’s Culture Collide Festival</b>! This unique Sydney-based five-piece –which will be releasing their self-titled debut on
<b>November 15<sup>th</sup></b>-- creates beautifully dense and catchy tunes, filled with lush harmonies, reverb-drenched guitars and colossal choruses. Live, their tripartite frontline dazzles with the twin attacks of a floor tom-pounding keyboardist and bow-strumming
guitarist. This is all instantly crystallized in a vocalist whose spine-tingling falsettos are as reliable as his not wearing shoes. You do not want to miss out on this swoon-worthy performance in LA!
