Event banner photo by AEC PIXSydney band Restless Leg hit the ground running in 2026 heading out across NSW on the Evil Eggs Tour to road-test a batch of new songs ahead of recording their fifth album.
With a growing back catalogue that recalls classic antipodean acts such as The Go-Betweens and The Clean, their songs burst at the seams with Velvet Underground-inspired guitars, shambolic Pavement-tinged country and sparky Flying Nun-inspired indie rock.
The past 14 years have been productive and highly rewarding for the band. Last year they fulfilled a dream of playing a run of shows in Aotearoa/NZ. They’ve had a feature album on 2SER and worked in the studio with Jamie Hutchings of Bluebottle Kiss and Jay Whalley of Frenzal Rhomb.
Paul Kean of The Bats reckons they remind him of his band’s classic, Bats-era Daddy’s Highway album! The AU Review described their most recent album, Dance Around My Head, as “iconic indie rock with a melancholic twist.”
Be the first to hear the band playing new songs and old gems at The Oriental Hotel on Awabakal-Worimi land, Cooks Hill on Saturday 9 May with support from Charlie Farmer. Entry is FREE.
