Sweets

Music – Melbourne

Who wants candy? Sweets is a delicious new musical project from Annabelle Tunley (Aluka) Peter Emptage (Hello Satellites, Where Were You At Lunch) and George Weis (Hello Satellites, Manny Fox). Less saccharine than the name would suggest, Sweets revel in the unexpected, with their brazen concoction of low-fi electro-fuzz, Afro-beat shake, and kaleidoscopic bonk-pop. Sweets’ debut single Swagger is nothing short of a good time. The hand-clapping, percussive racket recalls the sticky haze of early-morning house party kitchen dance floors. Her tongue firmly in her cheek, Tunley salaciously chants, ‘that doesn’t look like my man / my man doesn\'t have a swagger like that’.
