Paint Me Blue was produced by Grammy-nominated producer Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Joyce Manor, Jeff Rosenstock) and showcases their mastery of punk and indie sensibilities with a distinctive Aussie flair. Lyrically, the band delves into mental illness and environmental depression. "Each song is discussing a facet of life as a young Australian in today's world, whether it's juggling work with study, opening a dialogue about mental health or just dealing with the heat," describes lead vocalist and guitarist Callum Robinson.
