The story

Introducing Redspencer, recent inductees into Melbourne's flourishing bedroom-pop scene.

In late 2013, rural-born brothers Dave and Aiden McMillian traded the sun-drenched plains of northern New South Wales for the rich cultural tapestry -- and comparatively dreary weather -- of Melbourne. 2015 sees the two siblings (alongside Andre Franco on bass, and Alex Barclay on guitar) continue to draw influence from their provenance in Redspencer.

The four-piece’s eponymous debut EP is a hark back to the band’s humble beginnings, evoking images of balmy, mid-summer drives along the coast with the windows down. The sunny, reverb-swathed guitar-pop of lead single ‘Happy Slow Riverbends’ captures that image to a tee, rousing comparisons to the likes of Spoon and Real Estate.
