The City Views

Perth, Australia Noisy Melodic Indie Rock from Perth, Western Australia. Members past/present projects include the Sensitive Drunks, the JAC, the Jangle band, Aisling, Bucket, Ease, The Usuals, Liquid Altar, Sportzgirl, The Modern Bombers. Discordant guitar rock in a harmonious indie-pop disguise. For a three piece band The City Views from Perth, Western Australia sure pack an emotional punch. The songs of Dave Wallace form the skeleton of the band with drummer Mark Eaton fleshing things out with tasteful harmonies while holding together the rhythm section along with Harry Kneen on Bass. The band formed in Perth in 2015 and their 2nd ever show was in support of Sydney’s indie rock legends Smudge. In the few years that followed The City Views released their debut self titled EP on Joe Algeri’s Egomaniac label and have supported numerous national and international acts including Even, Header and Scotland’s Big Country. The City Views have also made appearances at many community festivals, most recently the Mount Hawthorn Streets and Lanes Festival. The City Views sound has been described as a blend of The Lemonheads, Dinosaur Jr and early R.E.M. with a distinctly Western Australian twist. The three members have appeared in many original Perth acts since the 90’s Including The Sensitive Drunks, Bucket, Aisling, The Usuals and The JAC among others. Sid and Dave are also currently the rhythm section for Perth pop exports, The Jangle Band. In February 2019 the band released it’s second EP titled Find Me Rewinding digitally via Half a Cow records and on 10” vinyl at https://thecityviews.bandcamp.com/album/find-me-rewinding. Since the launch The City Views have been playing regularly across Perth and Fremantle and are forever evolving into an indie rock force to be reckoned with.
