Darkside / Stay Awake

Kisschasy

A raw, dual-natured debut EP balancing high-energy suburban rock with vulnerable acoustic demos. The unpolished blueprint of Australian power-pop.

Find on Amazon

It's the raw, unpolished sound of a band finding their heart in a suburban garage.

A vulnerable and restless snapshot of suburban youth balancing angst with quiet introspection.
