Chill-out

I have lived in Australia for over 4years, travelled around this huge island, I found this band is the most beautiful part of Australia, I mean the most beautiful band, the Beautiful Girls. They come to Newcastle every year and love the beaches around Newcastle.

The band members all have been friends each other since younger, went surfing together in Sydney and started a band in 2000. They had strong backup of radio programs and became famous very quick and they supported Jack Johnson Australian Tour.

Their music is often compared with Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, or Mason Jennings. Especially the first album ‘Learn Yourself’ is very relaxed and chill-out music through all songs. The lyrics are often about the ocean and appreciation to his life. The sound is very sensitive, sometimes it’s intense, sometimes it’s mellow, and sometimes it’s disconsolate…

“…I’ve grown old on this ocean, gave her all, my stronger years.
Gave my wife my devotion, when she died, the ocean my tears.

I’ve tried to teach you well son, all of everything I knew.
of how to live this life be true.

Don’t bow your head to no one, and no matter what you do,

if you start then see it through….” —lyric of ‘La Mar’

There are many good Australian bands but I could not found any other bands that loves their own land and ocean and feeling them with life-size of themselves. Australian beach culture produced them I believe.

They are THE band representing Australia…

  1. I agree, their music really gives you a sense of who they are and their local ties.

    i really like the beautiful girls, i didnt know they visited newcastle on a regular basis. i thin their music reflects their love for the ocean with calm, melodic songs. i might have to agree to disagree with you about this band being the face of australias talent. more of a midnight oil fan myself! lol.
