    Biography

    A pop-­folk fanfare of toe­-tapping melodies, soaring harmonies and happy high hopes; that's the joy­-evoking sound that Brisbane group, The Lighthearts (formerly known as 'The Counterfeit Umbrellas') bring to the stages and ears they grace. 
 The band were crowned the winners of Westfield’s Sound Search competition in 2015, as selected by Sony Music and the Westfield group. Following this success, they went on to play alongside some of the country’s finest acts including Cat Empire, Guy Sebastian, Busby Marou, Ash Grunwald, The Beautiful Girls and Birds of Tokyo; at hugely popular events including Caloundra Music Festival, Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers and Brisbane’s famous Caxton Street Festival. 
 Their hotly-anticipated debut (self-titled) EP, which includes the critically-acclaimed singles ‘Hold Back the Sun’ and ‘Your Man’, was the result of several months of writing and recording in the studio with ARIA-nominated producer Stuart Stuart (Sheppard, The Veronicas). The title track, 'Hold Back the Sun' was voted into 4ZZZ's Hot 100 by listeners at No. 10 for 2016. 
 After a short break from the stage, the band are back and better than ever. 
 A new name, fresh faces and ready to hit the stages of some of the country's finest festivals and events.
