PRAISE FOR The Lazy Eyes
“Feature Album (triple j)”
“A playful display of perfectly crafted psychedelic rock”
“Psych-pop reverie ‘Imaginary Girl’ nods to the ‘60s’ mind-altered idealism, while the guitar-dueling freak-out ‘Where’s My Brain???’ uncovers all the paranoia that comes with it”
“Full of delicious builds, drops, and guitar work”
“Honest-to-god really good”
“The makings of a psych giant”

This tour is a defining moment for the band, a chance to experience the band returning to the basics, rediscovering their identity, and making good on the promise of their debut album with their most ambitious Australian tour yet. Alongside major capital cities, The Lazy Eyes will hit the road with a run of regional dates. Renowned for their immersive and dynamic live shows that have seen them tour with Djo, WetLeg, The Strokes, and more, the band will bring Cheesy Love Songs to life alongside their familiar hits, ‘Fuzz Jam’ to ‘Where’s My Brain???’
Following on from their second single of this new era, ‘How Does It Feel To Be In Love?’ and ‘The One Who Got Away’, The Lazy Eyes will enhance their psych rock prowess live, reflective of their approach on their forthcoming record. Making Cheesy Love Songs represented a necessary struggle: Time to go back-to-basics, work out who The Lazy Eyes are in 2026, and return stronger than before. Inspecting each component of their craft, one by one, and trying on a series of recording and production approaches for size. Cheesy Love Songs proves The Lazy Eyes are naturals when it comes to writing songs that feel unaffected and resonant – even with as saturated a subject as affection.
Named in homage to the first track they put out, ‘Cheesy Love Song’, the album feels like a love letter to the classic pop form: a collection of rose-tinted missives that deal in swelling choruses and yearning, bittersweet lyrics that are both ornate and carefree. Their creative adulation for technical wizards who never let that proficiency get in the way of heartfelt songwriting shows just how they thrive. Minimalism, representing who they are right here, right now, and without the baggage of expectation, is how The Lazy Eyes make good on the promise of their debut. Cheesy Love Songs captures complex feelings and experiences in a way that feels simple and real above all else.
