Editor's note

Ball Park Music's melodic indie rock from Brisbane

A Brisbane band that's been balancing catchy hooks with introspective lyrics since 2008.

If you're new to them, 'All I Want Is You' and 'Weirder & Weirder' frame that mix of immediate melody and something a bit more thoughtful pretty well.

They've built a steady audience with songs that stick in your head but don't shy away from something a little heavier underneath. 'All I Want Is You' from their 2011 debut is a good example of that balance. Later tracks like 'Cocaine Lion' and 'Sunscreen' show how they've stretched that sound across different albums without losing the melodic core.

They formed in Brisbane in 2008 and put out their first album 'Happiness and Surrounding Suburbs' in 2011. Since then, they've released records every couple of years, from 'Museum' in 2014 through to 'Deep Blue' in 2020, with their sound shifting across pop and folk touches while staying grounded in indie rock.

Archive material and source history

Ball Park Music formed in Brisbane in 2008 with Sam Cromack on vocals and guitar, Dean Hanson on guitar, Daniel Hanson on bass, and Jennifer Boyce on drums. Their debut EP "Fence Sitter" came out around that time, followed by their first album "Happiness and Surrounding Suburbs" in 2011. That record helped them build an audience with songs like "It's Nice To Be Alive" and "All I Want Is You."

They've put out several albums since then, including "Museum" in 2014, "Every Night the Same Dream" in 2016, "Good Mood" in 2018, and "Deep Blue" in 2020. Their sound has shifted across those records, touching on pop and folk elements while keeping a melodic indie rock foundation. Tracks like "Cocaine Lion" and "Sunscreen" show that range.

In 2014, there was some noise about the band being left off a festival lineup, which stirred up their fans. Ball Park Music's music tends to balance catchy hooks with more introspective lyrics, a mix that comes through in songs like "Weirder & Weirder" and "A Field To Break Your Back In."
