Quivers
Supported by Nice House + Cathy Diver.
Quivers, of Naarm/Melbourne, have a third release of cathartic jangle-damaged pop, Oyster Cuts, coming out via beloved US label Merge Records, with more Australian (and international) dates than ever before to celebrate!
The new album is sunshine pop with blood in the water, with tape loops that circle like sharks, and twin guitars that glisten while the bass and drums roll in like waves. Pitchfork described Quivers' last record as “the sound of bedsit 1980s college-rock thrust into the big-tent environs of 21st-century indie, like a Go-Betweens with Coachella-conquering ambitions….and it’s absolutely glorious”, but Quivers only believe in a ragged glory, that live music should sometimes fall apart and be a genuine interaction with each audience. So they will continue to confront love and grief and the glow of friendship from all angles, and hope to meet you on the next winding road ahead.
