In today’s issue of Rave Magazine, our debut single “The Rafters” was reviewed as Single of the Week!!! Actually we tied with Hungry Kids of Hungary and their single “Let You Down”. We’re stoked to have shared the title with a great band such as Hungry Kids. Here’s what Simon Topper had to say. Thanks Simon!!
Don’t shake that smile just yet. There’s another one to be had with another Brisbane group Montpelier – though their piano-indie lends itself to more of a contented sigh than a raucous party guffaw. The established acts Montpelier recall throughout this floating, dreamy, but still somehow grounded excursion are numerous – the pop sensibility of Ben Lee without the smugness, or maybe the cerebral self-awareness of The Panics without their occasional indulgent meanderings. These are big calls to make about a band so new that their eyes are still adjusting to the light, so truly the most startling thing about The Rafters is that it’s the group’s debut. It’s just so … confident? I’m scribbling their name down as the next ‘must see’ local act.
