The Laurels (band) (original) (raw)

The Laurels are an Australian neo-psychedelic four-piece based in Sydney's Inner West. They formed in 2006 after the members met through mutual friends at a silly hat party, each of them originally living in disparate parts of the East Coast of Australia. The band garnered critical acclaim in the Sydney live music scene after playing extensively throughout the latter 2000s in both headline and international support slots before releasing their debut single "Art School Girl"/"Wandering Star'" in 2009 and their full length Plains album in 2012.
