Overview

Sydney's Nantes have been hovering just under the radar for a couple of years now, winning hearts and minds while seeing single after single gets added to Triple J. And now, following the recent release of BeingsBeing, their debut album, Nantes are hitting the road to bring you their take on atmospheric synth-indie-pop.

Joining them are Battleships a Sydney-based band of transplanted Queenslanders making noise overseas as well as in this suburnt country. They list bands like The National, Elbow and Boxer Rebellion among their influences, and there's definitely a similar mesmeric, melodic quality to songs like 'Your Words' and 'Coming Back to You'.

Both acts have been a staple of local festivals for a little while now, although they tend to be on right at the start of the day along with all the other undiscovered gems, at a time when most of us are still trying to decide which ironic T-shirt possesses an acceptable level of street-cred.

And if you're worried about parting with $20 for their GoodGod show, they're doing it for free at Bondi's Beach Road Hotel on Wednesday, April 10.
