Bio
Describing their euphoric sound as ‘Jungle Disco’ (or rather one of those cheap island holidays where a kid named Tiki Tiki brings you a vodka-filled-pineapple on the beach...) - I Know The Chief have already undergone a rollercoaster in their musical journey. Drawing upon influences such as Foals, Twinsy and Phoenix; they set out to “move the needle” on Australian music culture. One toucan at a time. Recently travelling to Sydney to record at legendary studio Alberts with highly regarded producer Jean-Paul Fung (Last Dinosaurs, Glass Towers, Olympic Ayres), I Know The Chief walked out with their new single 'Stay Coloured'. Described as a 'tropical frolic through an exotic disco-jungle' (hillydilly.com), Stay Coloured will 'make your body move in ways you have never moved before' (Jean-Paul Fung). www.twitter.com/iknowthechief www.soundcloud.com/iknowthechief
Review
There's obvious development in your songwriting and that's so encouraging to hear from a band. This also SMACKS of Jean Paul Fung - did he produce this? Those guitars sound heaps like the Glass Towers record from last year: treblley, really distinctive and quite current. Good job to all.

It's not rewriting the indie pop handbook but this is a solid effort right here.
