MOODY BEACH SHARES NEW SINGLE + VIDEO "ALL I DO"
Following on from her startling debut offering “Vanilla”, Sydney’s new indie heartthrob Moody Beach (a.k.a. Melissah Marie) delivers another perfect two and a half minute slice of transcendent shoegaze pop with new single “All I Do”.
With disparate influences ranging from Roy Orbison and The Cure to Blondie and The Pixies, Moody Beach interweaves dream-pop melodies, hazy psychedelic guitar lines and enigmatic lyrics to create a transfixing new take on alt-indie-pop. "All I Do" is lifted from her highly anticipated debut self-titled EP, set for release Friday August 4.
Accompanied by stunning visuals directed by young Sydney auteurs Gabe Gasparinatos and Harry Wels of Cheapskate (whose previous clip for The Goods is currently omnipresent on Rage), the “All I Do” video trades in the warped, 90s beach vibes we saw with “Vanilla”, for a more Americana-esque, 60s-like Motown theme. We are also introduced to Moody Beach band members Carl Fox and Jason Mannix (guitars), and Courtney Cunningham (Le Pie, Good Pash) on drums, resplendent in classic television black and white.
Starting out as a bedroom project, Marie has watched Moody Beach evolve into a full band with a growing live presence. After moving to Sydney from Adelaide and wanting to find more spaces to play live and develop her sound, Marie began curating Cult Club; a quarterly party held at Hair by Tommy J, a local barber shop near her house in Redfern. Cult Club prides itself on showcasing emerging artists from Sydney's underground who play to a crowd no bigger than 100, and is one of the spaces where Marie solidified her Moody Beach project.
With Moody Beach’s debut EP (and a national tour) scheduled for release in the next couple of months, until then indulge deeply on “All I Do” and be sure to catch her live if you can at the infamous Cult Club shows and other underground Sydney shows.
