I've got a bit of a weakness for Australian bands. I don't know exactly why, but something about most music that comes from the smallest of the continents just clicks. Case in point:
Drawn From Bees. The Brisbane-based quartet's sharp songwriting and moody alt-rock sound were a very welcome discovery, and it's easy to hear why they have been receiving buzz both in and out of their native land. For their currently underway U.S. tour - which includes two Chicago shows - the band have put together a five-track introductory EP called
Cautionary Tales for the Lionhearted to offer up a sampling of all of their releases to date.
Catch Drawn From Bees when they pass through the Windy City with gigs on Monday,
March 21st at Reggies and Tuesday,
March 22nd at Elbo Room. In the meantime, check out our interview with frontman Dan James below to find out more about the band and how their time in the States has been going so far.
