Ahead of full EP release on 28th June 2024 via Rice Is Nice Records, the melancholic title track ‘Nothing Lasts Forever’ is available right now, accompanied by a dreamy video by frequent collaborator, Geoffrey O’Connor. The band is celebrating the release of new single with a free gig Monday 3 June 2024 at Northcote Social Club (Melbourne) with the wonderful Geoffrey O’Connor and Georgia Knight. With humble beginnings as Steph Crase’s lofi guitar dream-pop solo recording project in 2012, Summer Flake has since flourished into a dependable indie rock mainstay releasing 4 albums and 3 EPs, arriving at today’s optimal trio format with Joel Carey (Peak Twins, Skid City) and Perry Mahoney (The Shifters, Scott & Charlene’s Wedding). Recorded to warm analogue tape by Paul Maybury (of Rocket Science), the tender new single ‘Nothing Lasts Forever’ radiates with woozy echoes, glowing guitar lines and downbeat layered vocal elegance, spackling Crase’s distinctive malaise over Mahoney’s gently descending Twin Peaks-inspired bass hook. ‘Nothing Lasts Forever EP’ is available to preorder now - streaming everywhere and available in a limited cassette edition, featuring original lino cut cover art by Adelaide’s finest, Seb Calabretto.Geoffrey O'Connor, one time frontman for euphoric guitar pop band Crayon Fields will be releasing his new solo album later this year.
