Edit history

Fountain Lakes are Jac Tonks and Emma Heeney. With playful songwriting, and lush harmonies the pair create the romance and foreboding of girl groups of the 1960s; their songs both sweet and dark cautionary tales. The pair are due to release their debut EP Junkyard of Lost Hearts in August 2026, before heading to Stöðvarfjörður, Iceland for a month-long music residency at the Fish Factory Creative Centre to write their debut album. “Just when you think that all of the great chorus one-liners are taken, Fountain Lakes find a corker with, ‘I don’t even cheat in dreams’. It is not wasted on them with their transcendent harmonies and deft song structure. They are gorgeously clever in every way!” Angie Hart (Frente) “Harmonies like honey, gentle strumming of angels, utterly mesmeric!” ****½ Kath Deveney, ABC Radio
