Cool Sounds

317 fans

Cool Sounds are a Melbourne-sprung indie guitar-pop outfit. They’ve been playing together since the mid 10’s, fluid in the line-up but with writer/vocalist Dainis Lacey at the heart of it, whose idiosyncratic vocal makes the band instantly recognizable. Notable for their guitar-lick interplay and hook-laden melodies, the band makes jangly pop songs brimming with ideas. With 3 EP’s and 3LP’s under their belt, Cool Sounds have established themselves as mainstays in the Australian Indie Music scene.
