Laney have burst on to the melbourne music scene as a dynamic 4 piece outfit, delivering a soulful set of funk infused indie pop. Conceived as a Canberra folk duo in 2002, Laney return with a richer, more accomplished sound. Driven by the heart lifting vocals and keys of co-founder and songwriter Emily White, Melbourne..s Laney combines rousing melodies with reggae cool. Co-founder Lizzy Rutten (songwriter, drummer) has been joined by experienced bass guitarist Lachlan Rimes (formerly of The Hammonds) and Danny Verbeeten on guitar enriching an already potent soundscape. The latest recording is titled Gravity and forms the first EP release in Melbourne, recorded independently by Sean Flynn. It comes on the back of several successful shows in Melbourne. Laney perrformed at The Banyule Festival ..Twilight Sound in 05 and 07 and Canberra..s Indyfest in 2003. Visit www.myspace.com/laneygasten for upcoming gigs.
