To say Brissy indie rockers The Bacchanales have been busy the past year would be an understatement. From growing a dedicated fanbase on the streets of Brisbane with their brand of attention commanding indie rock, releasing a debut EP and sharing stages with Holy Holy, Bad Dreems, Hey Geronimo and The Belligerents, they show no sign of slowing down, now gearing up to release the first single from their forthcoming sophomore EP.

Titled ‘Sandcastles’ the single is the moody first taste of the impending EP, which showcases the four pieces’ innate ability to creative groove laden indie rock gems, while also displaying new level of songwriting  maturity. Gracefully transforming into a reflective, heartfelt ballad on memory and loss, ‘Sandcastles’ is actually just a snippet of the full nine minute arrangement available on the EP.

The Bacchanales will be playing The Elephant’s Queen’s Birthday celebration on Sunday 7th June alongside The Medics and The Belligerents, for more info on the show and the band’s upcoming EP visit The Bacchanales’ Facebook page.
