Aussie Indie Rock Group Lipstereo Releases EP Live At Bakehouse
Australian indie rock four-piece Lipstereo's new EP Live At Bakehouse. The three song EP touches upon themes including nostalgia, relationship issues, parental entanglements and the importance of sincerity.
Live At Bakehouse is Lipstereo's second EP, following their highly successful and critically acclaimed debut Modern Mythology. Produced by notable Australian music producer Mark Opitz AM (INXS, Angels, Cold Chisel), all three songs on the EP were captured during a worldwide live streamed concert called “Let Me Help - Children Of The World”, presented by Noise11.com. Filmed in the “Scrap Museum”, the EP was telecast live from New York City on behalf of children’s charities across the world.
Lipstereo is a young, four-piece Australian indie rock band from Melbourne, Australia. Formed in 2019, this collection of music tragics bonded together over a mutual obsession of The Strokes, Weezer and Arctic Monkeys' back catalogues. By channeling too much time spent watching worn out Ramones and Blondie VHS tapes as children, Lipstereo creates performances reminiscent of late nights at CBGB, and spilling drinks just a little too cheap on the floor.
Lipstereo is composed of frontman Sam Stranges on vocals and rhythm guitar, Andrew Stainsby on lead guitar, Tage Hosking-Gregory on bass and Jesse Porter on drums. Playing all over pre-lockdown Melbourne in 2019 and 2020 at their high-energy live gigs, Lipstereo fuses loud guitars with a post punk songwriting sensibility to create music that in a parallel universe, would be on Phil Spector's Spotify playlist.
Lipstereo is one of Melbourne's most promising alternative bands, having recently released their four track debut EP, Modern Mythology, at Thirty Mill Studios with top Australian record producer, Mark Opitz (AC/DC, INXS, Cold Chisel) and engineer Colin Wynne (INXS, Jeff Lang, The Casanovas). The band has since received acclaim from Rolling Stone Australia, NME, ABC Rage and Noise 11 to name a few. Their new EP Live at Bakehouse was recorded and filmed during a worldwide live streamed concert called “Let Me Help - Children Of The World”, presented by Noise11.com. Filmed in the “Scrap Museum” at Bakehouse Studios in Melbourne, Lipstereo premieres three songs live, "You Got The Things", "Push The Tide" and "Feedback". This body of work was telecast live from New York City on behalf of children’s charities across the world.
