Last Leaves
Last Leaves are an indie pop band from Melbourne, Australia made up of three quarters of the members of defunct and well-known Melbourne band The Lucksmiths. Their songs feature the familiar lyrical wit and themes of nature and 'every-day' Australian life of The Lucksmiths' music (albeit with less of a focus on inner city living and more of a rural slant), but their sound is notably heavier and less "jangly". Songwriter Marty Donald has described the new sound as being "more expansive and dynamic" [1]
