The Belair Lip Bombs
Comprising four friends (Maisie, Mike, Jimmy and Dev) from the coastal town of Frankston, Victoria – The Belair Lip Bombs craft heartfelt and hook laden indie rock songs connected by the groups close bond and friendship. Building an early following across Melbourne supporting local acts Ladyhawke, Spacey Jane, Slowly Slowly, Tired Lion, Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers, British India, and more. Although cutting their teeth through a sonically varied and exciting beginning, the group made their most defining statement on their debut record Lush Life in 2023. 10 tracks of evocative exploration; stories that run a gamut of longing, seeking new horizons and discovering new paths to satisfaction and self-fulfillment. If debut albums are meant to serve as the gateway, a first impression, then The Belair Lip Bombs’ introductory effort paints a vibrant and emotive portrait of a band truly finding their sound.
Initially released on Cousin Will Records in Australia – Lush Life was recently reissued through Jack White’s Third Man Records, culminating as both the first Australian release on the international label. Since, the group have performed globally at Austin’s SXSW festival and The Great Escape in the UK. Locally, 2024 saw The Belair Lip Bombs perform at Laneway Festival and Golden Plains, alongside national tours supporting Hockey Dad, Militarie Gun, Blondshell and more. The group have also embarked on a longlist of headline tours in Australia, New Zealand and the UK/EU – including sold out shows in London, Melbourne, Brisbane and more.
