Intro

Foley sounds like the exact moment a party shifts from polite conversation to actual dancing. Their music is built on a foundation of incredibly tight, elastic basslines that owe as much to classic P-Funk as they do to modern chart-toppers. It is bright, colorful, and meticulously polished, shimmering with the kind of high-fidelity production that makes every synth pop and every drum hit feel tactile.

What sets them apart is the vocal chemistry between Ash Wallace and Gabriel Everett. They don't just trade verses; they weave around one another with interlocked harmonies and rhythmic phrasing that feels like a conversation. There is a restless, kinetic energy to their arrangements, often featuring clean, percussive guitar work and sudden, satisfying shifts in groove that keep the listener leaning in.

Start with their debut album Crowd Pleaser to hear their sound at its most realized. It is a masterclass in modern New Zealand pop, blending the sophistication of jazz-influenced musicianship with the undeniable hooks of a global radio hit. It is the perfect soundtrack for those transition hours between sunset and the deep night.
