Pear Shape - 'Righteousness'


It may not be the best time of year for fruit in Australia, but pears are certainly ripe and ready to be sampled. Sydney-Siders, Pear Shape continue to parade their own brand of infectiously joyous pop-rock on the track ‘Righteousness’. Set upon the backdrop of a Sydney Indie music scene saturated in brooding experimentalism and ambience, Pear Shape provides a refreshingly accessible alternative. Calling on their 60s predecessors The Kinks and The Zombies, Pear Shape embodies the happy, carefree spirit of the decade through their catchy melodies, jangly guitars and angelic vocals. Uncomplicated, jovial tunes are what this youthful quartet is all about.
