Hailing from Sydney’s brooding Inner West, The Sculptures have been lighting up stages and winning fans with their uniquely vibrant pop‐rock sound since their inception in 2007.
Influenced by the feel of new‐wave, the raw power of punk and the stylish excess of 80s rock, their creative dexterity to string together outlandish guitar parts, driving rhythms and lyrical hooks has fused these genres together in a modern, dynamic and memorable style. The band's line‐up consists of sisters Nat and Sare on lead vocals and on bass, who are joined by friends Nath and Benny on guitars and Timmy C. on drums. The Sculptures have honed their energetic live sound at such iconic Sydney venues as Oxford Art Factory, The Annandale Hotel, The Gaelic Theatre and Spectrum Nightclub. Driven by Nat’s powerful vocal ability, they are known around the Sydney scene for their extremely awesome live shows.
Recently featured as ‘Band of the Month’ on ‘Muso2Muso’, The Sculptures have received rave reviews from the ever observant street press:
“First song in from The Sculptures and I'm mesmerised. The eye candy Blondie/Pink persona of the front chick (Nat) is backed with punchy slammin' pop from the rhythm section (Sare/Benny). Tasty understated lead work from ‘guitar boy’ (Nath) is merely the cherry. Lead chick works the stage effortlessly, with her smoky gruff tuneful vocal commanding attention. ‘Took me to a Broadway show!’ indeed... my new favourite band”
‐ Steve Anderson, Drum Media #1028
“...The Sculptures, whose enthusiasm ‐ especially from the singer/bassist sibling combination of Nat and Sare ‐ and disco/rock rhythm section grab you in a way that Gossip at their best manage to... people joined in the invitation to clap hands towards the end of The Sculptures' set, which was pretty good going...”
‐ Brent Balinski, Drum Media #1049
The Sculptures released their highly anticipated debut EP ‘Sirens Will Howl’ to a sold‐out crowd at Spectrum Nightclub in early 2010. The EP has cemented a loyal fan‐base whose energy at shows and devotion to the music is certainly a driving force for the energy within the band itself. Following on from the momentum of the EP's launch and a string of successful performances, the band is expanding their palette with the recent addition of guitarist Benny to their ranks. An unrivalled enthusiasm and genuine passion for ‘more’ sees The Sculptures planning to record new music very soon, stay tuned to this station!
