“Simplicity is complexity, resolved” Cold Memory is the sophomore album from jade imagine. Written and recorded between Melbourne, Warrnambool and Fremantle, Western Australia, Cold Memory offers ten songs that explore notions of connection – to self, to nature, and to others. jade imagine are Tim Harvey, Madeline Lo-Booth and Jade McInally with Marcel Tussie (Stella Donnely, Rolling Blackouts C.F) on drum duties for the recording. Together, the band offer a stunningly diverse collection of modern classics, blending the familiar with the fresh. Before founding jade imagine, front-person and key songwriter Jade McInally had been a stalwart of the indie scene for more than a decade.

After signing with Milk! Records, jade imagine’s debut EP What the Fuck Was I Thinking was released in April 2017 which was heralded by Rolling Stone Australia who described the lo-fi gem ‘Stay Awake’ - one of the EP’s singles - as “a shimmering summer-invite track”, its lowkey, lethargic, insomniac energy perfect for an impossibly hot afternoon. The band then went on to release their debut album Basic Love in August 2019, receiving Album Of The Week on Triple R Radio (VIC), The Edge Radio (TAS), and Radio Adelaide (SA), alongside glowing reviews from The Australian to The Big Issue, as well as a long-listing for the prestigious AMP Album prize.
