BERMUDA BAY
THEY ARE Adelaide’s most fiercely funky group of dancefloor deviants, with a red-hot swagger that simply commands your attention. They’ve been playing together since age 14, and with two gloriously groovy, infinitely replayable EPs under their belts (with plenty more tunes to come), it’s without a doubt they’ll soon be taking stages by storm around the globe.
THEY SOUND LIKE a three-day weekend you didn’t know about until the night before it started. It’s still over too soon (like any of Bermuda Bay’s releases), but it’s still better than what you’re used to (like any of Bermuda Bay’s releases). You end it with a feeling of true appreciation (like... You get it).
YOU’LL DIG THEM IF YOU LIKE Tame Impala, M83 and Last Dinosaurs. Their warm and warbly, ultra-danceable disco-pop gems spur visions of neon lights, glittery bodypaint, and 24-hour kebab shops in perfect walking distance from the club you just spent six hours sweating up a storm in. Their tracks are instant mood-setters – pop one on when you’re getting ready for your next night out and thank us later.
YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT the inescapably rousing Expectations EP, which landed at the tail end of 2020 with the perfect set of slick and suave jams to ring in the new year. Make sure to catch them live, too, where they crank the vibes up to 11 and get a dancefloor raging like a pack of dogs in a butcher’s shop.
