Edit history

BLACK LAKES are a Sydney Indie pysch/west, rock band. The group consists of identical twin brothers Stephen (vocal, bass) and David (drums) Kelly, along with Brenton Freeman (guitar, synth) and Phil Shingles (guitar). Their first EP 'Only For The Woods' was recorded over five weeks above the Annandale Hotel, in Annandale Sydney, in a makeshift analogue studio and released in September 2012 independently as part of a double EP release with the second, 'Trick Hotel' due for release in May 2013. As both were written and recorded in the same sessions they are collectively know as the 'Trick Hotel' EP's. Initially inspired by the classic Australian rock (The Church, Paul Kelly) and more recently the American Psych Alt-Country scene (The War On Drugs, My Morning Jacket) they deliver a pioneering dive into the Indie Psych/West sound. The 'Trick Hotel' Ep's production was overseen by Anthony The (Youth Group, Cut Off Your Hands). They were mixed by Wayne Connolly (The Vines, Josh Pyke) and
