Biography
How the fark are ya? The two-piece indie-rock outfit Old Mervs, from Kojonup, WA return with their first new single of 2023, ‘Sweetheart’ and the first glimpse at the band’s next era. Taking cues from blissed-out Californian faves Sunroom to the classic indie feels of fellow Aussies DMA’s, ‘Sweetheart’ was born out of a writing trip the band took in Denmark, WA. With no pressure or deadlines hanging over their heads, the band put their minds to sculpting their next batch of music. ‘Sweetheart’ emerged from a few different song ideas that would then be stitched together alongside producer Dave Parkin at Black Bird Studios to create the final cut. Lyrically, it takes aim at those friends that constantly flake on plans, while also acknowledging that we all do that sometimes. Tight, propulsive, and ever so fun, ‘Sweetheart’ feels like a classic Mervs cut, but powered by a new focus and intention. The first of much more to come, ‘Sweetheart’ is another home run from one of the country’s fastest rising bands. “This track came from a writing session we did on the south coast of WA last summer.” says vocalist/guitarist David House. “We wanted some more fast-paced singalong styled songs for our live set, so whilst writing we were trying to imagine how it would sit in a live show. It definitely feels like a very classic old Mervs sounding track and that’s intentional. Crunchy guitars and big choruses are too much fun to be missing from our catalogue.”
