Pretty City, create a unique brand of grunge, fuzz rock, power pop with catchy hooks, and explosive rhythms. Heavy riffs and licks, sing along melodies, and dancey beats. Something for everyone.

As the band progressed, each member brought their varied influences to the table. What ensued was an increasing push and pull between disparate influences that caused an on stage chemistry that has continually grown in stature and grandeur.
This exciting onstage chemistry has been poured into the studio, with the band recording their debut album. The first half of 2015 was spent capturing the undeniable onstage energy and translating it into the studio environment. The band’s recent singles, which include ‘Melt’ and ‘Running Around’ (Australia only), and 'Mary Go Round' have been played on community and commercial (including Triple J and Triple M) radio in Australia. 'Melt' has also been played internationally in the UK, USA, Europe, and Japan.
As well as tireless studio efforts, 2015 saw the band grow in the live arena as well with the band completing a successful national tour in support of their triple single release in June. The band has also supported Ecca Vandal and 90s band, Jesus Jones at the Corner Hotel in Melbourne, as well as Aus rock legends, The Hoodoo Gurus in November.
This comes off the back of an extremely busy year in 2014 with three singles and three East Coast tours, which saw them travel the country playing shows in regional and capital city locations. As well as their own tours, Pretty City supported Stonefield, played a festival alongside Lurch and Chief and Drunk Mums, and finished off the year playing New Year’s Eve at the Espy alongside Kingswood, DZ Deathrays and the cream of Australian music.
