Hailing from Adelaide, South Australia, The Sweet Decline are a four piece indie rock act with a sound that encorporates big blues rock lines, reverbed guitars, echoed vocals and pounding drums.
The sound is created by 3 cousins and a close friend with a desire to do something different while remaining true to influences ranging from Kings of Leon to Wilco to Television. The debut EP was recorded at Hillside Studios with Matt Hills and is the band’s first taste of what is being brewed internally.
Tom Kennedy fronts the band, Lee Kennedy backs it with power and colour on the drums with Gus Johnston filling the voids and the forefront with his echo drenched lead guitar work, and now on searching for a new bass player ( Shane Brown left this place vacant ) . After a year and a half on the Adelaide scene The Sweet Decline is rapidly developing and establishing themselves as a must see. They share your first EP through bandcamp..
