Edit history

Melbourne’s Good Morning are beloved at home and abroad. Stefan Blair and Liam Parsons are the band’s founding members, and are joined live by James Macleod and Joe Alexander. The band recently independently released their second LP The Option, a 17-minute tumble through propulsive guitar melodies and lyrics of concise, casual poetry, recorded live to tape. Slightly belying their decidedly no-frills approach to recording and playing live, the band were recently heavily sampled on A$AP Rocky's "Kids Turned Out Fine" and consistently pack out Melbourne venues. Good Morning's early EPs Shawcross and Glory defined the band's initial lo-fi, lazy and laconic sound, and have amassed over 36 million streams on Spotify alone. Their debut album Prize // Reward was a record of reflections, equally melodic and melancholic: The Option casts a wide gaze, interested in allegory and irony, but still distinctly rooted in personal narrative.
