You Don't Think You Like People Like Me

Alex Lahey hocked her beloved 1999 blue Corolla to pay for the recording of her debut EP B-Grade University

A Melbourne-based rock artist knack for melodic, guitar-driven hooks.

Most recently Lahey has set the music industry abuzz with the insanely catchy You Don’t Think You Like People Like Me. From the attention-grabbing opening bars (those drums sound like an angry landlord thumping your front door on a Sunday morning), it flips the classic break-up line “it’s not you, it’s me” on its head.

Upon release in March, YDTYLPLM was immediately added to rotation on triple j radio, started popping up on music blogs everywhere. It was then Pitchfork gave it Best New Track and got the rest of the world talking
