Information

Babe Rainbow are a stoner pop band from Australia noted for their boogie psychedelia and throwback surf cult imagery. Formed 2015 in Rainbow Bay by kiosk lurkers Jack Crowther aka Cool Breeze Angus Dowling and Elliot OReilly. At a time the three worked for local grower John Cutts in Duranbah NSW near tropical fruit world. John and the guys were cranking out the kale way before it was cool. Weve seen plenty of vegetables go in and out of fashion says Angus. Initially rooted in 60s psych and 70s French surf pop the Babes musical style has evolved through their career exploring elements of woodland bop and disco, dub and more recently dance and international groove, yet has maintained an Aquarian quality built of Dowlings spacemen singing style and Cool Breezes chiming effects-based guitar sounds. Babe wrote and recorded their first release The Babe Rainbow EP in a 2nd hand bookstore in Murwillumbah which was soon picked up by national broadcaster triple J and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard label Flightless Records. In 2017 they released their debut album produced by Stu Mackenzie and smacked out support tours with King Gizzard, Allah Las, Tomorrows Tulips, and French synth wave band La Femme internationally. The debut Babe Rainbow album was signed to 30th Century / Columbia. The Double Rainbow (2018) followed and then Today (2019). Wollongong surfer Miles Myjavec joined on drums around this time. Babe Rainbow now own all their masters and future releases including album four Changing Colours which was the first on the bands own label EUREKA! Music through AWAL. Babe Rainbow is powered by Hobie swallowtails************Psych-pop constructed with a painterly touch, Babe Rainbow seem to thrive on feeling, unhooking themselves from logical realms and embarking on lengthy journeys across turbulent inner oceans. - CLASHTheir sound washes over you like the waves of the sea, a perfect groove for summer on the beach - Daily Express Scotland ★★★★Lovers of sun-kissed sonic balms rejoice: this is an album filled with slow-paced sweetness that will turn your sense of time into a hazy concept. - Shindig ★★★★***********
