Floodlights are an Australian rock band from Melbourne, Victoria, formed in 2018.[1]
The idea of Floodlights was conceived during a conversation at the iconic Melbourne pub The Tote Hotel.[2] The group are composed of Louis Parsons, Ashlee Kehoe, Joe Draffen, Archie Shannon and Sarah Hellyer.
Their debut EP Backyard was self released in May 2019, later being picked up by Spunk Records[3] who re-released the EP that year, and signed the band on for their debut album From A View, which surfaced in July 2020.[4]
In June 2021, Floodlights released a two song 7" on local Melbourne label Tiny Town.[5]
In early April 2023 came Floodlights' second album Painting of My Time, supported by European and Australian tour dates over the better half of the year including a triumph at Meredith Music Festival with The Age reporting them as one of the outstanding acts.[6]
