Indie Pop from Low Key Crush

Melbourne-based duo Low Key Crush is formed by two friends, Taycian and Tim, who make their own style of guitar-driven dream pop music. With poignant lyrics about love, romance or unadulterated feelings, they spin delicate and moving songs full of gentle vocals carrying bright melodies and warm harmonies.

In 2019 they made their introduction with their debut single “Swimming Laps”, recorded in Tim’s parent’s garage with rented microphones from a DJ warehouse. Making an impact straight away with their first effort, they caught the attention of Australian youth radio broadcaster Triple J and secured extensive radio support from a range of national stations.

With their sophomore single “Shelter”, they landed on Spotify’s Fresh Finds: Indie playlist and were featured on Hype Machine’s best new music playlist. Continuing to go from strength-to-strength with each new release, this year they shared the lead single “Night Time” from their debut EP titled Bats over the Eastern Freeway.

Bringing us the title track from the new EP, the opening song from the release showcases their elegant songwriting wrapped up in a joyous indie pop sound. Weaving gracious metaphors with their lyrics, on “Bats Over the Eastern Freeway” Tim sings of the bats that fly over Melbourne’s Eastern Freeway each night as a reflection for the darker feelings you try to avoid as you make your way each night on a song that offers a timeless and memorable sound.
