Lachie
Bio history
Year 12 from Melbourne. Sings in the wardrobe or when no one's home. A swish young man.
Lachie's unique sound is made viable through his use of an obsolete 90s P.C. with maxed out memory, software that no musician would seriously use, his dad's childhood bass guitar from the 70s, a thrashed guitar from his high school punk band, a kids Casio keyboard with a range of preset tunes such as "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" and "Jingle Bells" and a Singstar microphone. In maintaining the shittyness of all these elements, Lachie's gritty, fuzzy and at times inaudible vocals are deeply embedded in a wave of skanky rhythms, jazzy riffs and wandering bass lines. Despite being a drummer, Lachie physically plays his drum beats on the Casio keyboard, giving all of his tracks a sloppy and off-beat nature.
