Just in time for the Australian Summer, Sydney’s indie-electronic-popettes, Convaire bring the first and title tune from their highly anticipated debut EP, The New You. Equal measures quiet childhood nostalgia and barefooted Summer festival romance, The New You is a sparkling indication of what Convaire do so exceptionally well - the art of creating synth-happy, ’80s inspired, chill-sweet pop songs. Inspired by the likes of Talking Heads, Friendly Fires and Phoenix, Convaire were first given airtime by local Sydney radio heroes, FBI Radio. Since then, the four-turned-five piece released their first single Gate Track in September ‘10 to national airplay and gushing reviews. Their exceptional reputation was vindicated whilst winning a Triple J Unearthed initiative, which saw the band play alongside Delorean, Kele (Bloc Party) and 2manydjs at Sydney’s iconic dance festival, Parklife. Two singles, over one hundred shows and a few tambourine shakes later Future Classic saw potential in John Towey’s vocal likening to The Cure’s Robert Smith and the energy of the synth-loving Slattery sisters. The New You EP is available in a 7 inch vinyl package + 5 track Bonus CD, which is exciting enough to warrant a shoe shuffle and a couple of hand claps. Tracklisting: A: The New You B: Troy
