Edit history

SIDELINES is the indie pop moniker of a Melbourne artist blending bedroom pop sensitivity with emo undercurrents. Having cut his teeth as the frontman of the pop-punk/emo band Snark and currently performing as guitarist/vocalist in All Regards, SIDELINES is a natural evolution of his creative journey. With a love for synths, catchy pop hooks, and emotionally charged lyrics, SIDELINES crafts music that feels like a late-night confessional wrapped in infectious melodies. SIDELINES tells the story of an artist caught in emotional flux — between optimism and pessimism, joy and melancholy. It’s about nostalgia for what’s lost, fear of what’s ahead, and the beauty of the present moment slipping away.

Sidelines are a five piece Pop Punk band from Melbourne, Australia. To accompany their well received 2-track demo and popular cover of Taylor Swifts 'We are never getting back together', Sidelines released their much anticipated debut self released EP titled 'Progression' on the 7th of July, 2013. The EP as well as other merch such as snapbacks, beanies, T-shirts and crew necks are available via the Sideline's webstore at http://sidelines.bigcartel.com. Sidelines have already achieved a lot in their short time together as a band which includes sharing the stage with Cartel (USA), The Story So Far (USA), Basement (USA), Amy Meredith, Heroes For Hire, Anchors, For Our Hero & Trophy Eyes.
