Sydney’s Yours Truly are a must-watch in the current alternative scene. Huge international touring credits, media and radio trailblazing and a burgeoning brood of fans are just some of the successes that back this band, but it’s the knack for punchy songwriting and performance deep in their DNA that makes them really tick.
Possessing a power and poise few young bands can claim to grasp, it’s this vision and resolve that will see Yours Truly take the world over.
From their hometown in Sydney, Yours Trulyfirst broke out with their 2019 EP ‘Afterglow’ (hear itsstandout singles ‘Circles’ and ‘High Hopes’) and went on to spend the rest of the year gracing stagesincluding Download UK, Riot Fest and Good Things and supporting rock heroes including Sum 41andState Champs on their international quests. In 2020 the band followed with their full-length ‘SelfCare’, which saw the band awarded a laundry list of accolades including triple j’s Feature Album andTone Deaf’s Record Of The Week, alongside band nominations for Rolling Stone’s ‘Best New Artist’and ‘Best International Breakthrough Band’ at the UK Heavy Awards.
2021 found the group stepping into a new era with the arrival of their urgent, pulsing and frustration-filled new single ‘Walk Over My Grave’. The track explores the ghosts that get left behind when aclose relationship abruptly leaves your life, and the wonderment as to whether you haunt their life too.
Yours Truly’s 2022 EP ‘is this what i look like?’ marked the start of that new chapter. Inspired by themusic they listen to now (Bring Me The Horizon, The 1975, Bloc Party and Head Automatica) ratherthan what they grew up on, the seven tracks see the band scatter in every direction. There’s theelectro-thrash of ‘Lights On’, the aching alt-rock swagger of ‘Walk Over My Grave’ and the fearlesspop stomp of ‘If You’re Drowning (I’ll Learn How To Hold My Breath)’. From working with theirchildhood heroes, through the vulnerability of Delgado’s lyrics to the musical evolution on each andevery track,‘is this what i look like?’ is an incredibly ambitious record.
Possessing a power and poise few young bands can claim to grasp, it’s this vision and resolve thatwill see Yours Truly take the world over.
