The Summertimes VINYL PRE-SALE

Following their first single in January (“The Perfect Wave”), and a second in April (“Inside”), The Summertimes' self-titled debut LP is out on July 10, 2023. Songwriters David Beniuk and David Challenger were joined in the studio by some of Australia’s most revered musicians, including guitarist Ashley Naylor (Paul Kelly and The Church), drummer Stephen O’Brien (Tumbleweed) and bassist Steve Bull (Icehouse). Steering The Summertimes’ ship from behind the desk was five-time ARIA award-winning producer Paul McKercher, who’s recorded with the likes of the Hoodoo Gurus, Eskimo Joe and Midnight Oil. Drawing on inspiration from acts as diverse as the Go-Betweens, Teenage Fanclub, You Am I and The Smiths, The Summertimes’ 10-track LP is chock full of evocative power-pop melodies interwoven with cerebral storytelling.
