Bio
Aquinas' trajectory is hard to pin - homemade production and a defined sensibility for pop songwriting saw his first single "Bonsai." instantly make waves near and far from his hometown of Newcastle, Australia in 2019. It's accompanying album, "Boy.", laid the foundation for an eclectic career to come. From here he would play shows around his city and further in Sydney, as well as collaborate with exciting voices such as Craterface and FRITZ.
The follow up record "I Was Dreaming That" provided just the unpredictability that Aquinas demands. LoFi, short and experimental, the album's lead single "Thrasher1987" showed a talent for raw hip-hop delivery and cadence that earned the track a place on Spotify's "Beats and Bars" playlist.
Concluding 2020, Aquinas sets to prove he cannot be categorized, drawing ideas from all backgrounds of inspiration together with an undeniable distinguishing finesse. The new single "Dover" is ready to again show Aquinas' capability to evolve without compromise

your lax bars over this semi-ambient electronic beat is such a soothing (yet strong!) pairing. it's one I'll for sure be revisiting.

i'm with dave that it feels right to be kicking back while this one is on and you steer through the swirl.

Drowsy (almost house like) beat to give Aquinas an interesting edge to this track. Like the flowing verbs too.
