The Inadequates are a high-energy acoustic trio that is growing rapidly within the Australian folk scene. Known for their bright suits and huge sound, they have been pushing the limits of their acoustic instruments at many different festivals across the country, and now at long last, they have something to show for it. Currently releasing their highly anticipated debut record “Haven’t You Heard?”, the boys are thrilled to showcase the material they have been developing for the last few years. The 12-song album features all of the hallmarks of the Inadequates’ sound: tight 3 part harmonies, highly arranged and technically demanding instrumental work, paired with wrenching songwriting and the slamming energy that has earned them comparisons to more rock bands than acoustic ones. Alongside the music, the band has a new look: their signature bright suits have now been custom embroidered, showing that the boys have been working just as hard behind their instruments as they have been behind their Singer EM9305 Embroidery Machine. Yes the embroidery was done by them, and yes it was so much harder than it looks. Stream The Inadequates now - if not for the music, then do it for the embroidery.
