Made up of four friends from Fremantle, WA, Paint formed in 2021 and have since become known for their signature brand of fuzzy pop that draws influence from modern shoegaze and 90s alt rock. 2024 saw the band pick up momentum when their self-recorded, sophomore EP, ‘Gift Shop’ was released. This made waves in Australia, being the local feature release on RTRfm and listed in Rolling Stone Australia’s Best New Australian music. It has also gained international attention from The Line of Best Fit (UK) and was added to rotation on Seattle’s KEXP (USA). In February of 2025, ‘Gift Shop’ peaked at 10 in North American College and Community Radio Top 200 and soon after Paint opened for the Lemonheads on the WA legs of their Australian tour. In the back half of 2025 and in support of their recent double single "Forever and Always," the band have started playing interstate for the first time, touring with Armlock in NSW in August and Fool Nelson on 10 dates all over Australia in October.
