The Brunettes formed in New Zealand in 2002 with Jonathan Bree on vocals and guitar, Scott Campbell on drums, James Valentine on bass, and Heather Mansfield on keyboards. They put out albums like 'Holding Hands, Feeding Ducks' in 2006 and 'Structure and Cosmetics' in 2008, working in a lo-fi indie pop style that leaned on bittersweet harmonies.
Their 2011 single 'Best Friend Envy' got some attention for its catchy melody and lyrics about complicated feelings. That same year they released 'The Red Room' before going on an indefinite hiatus around 2014. After that, Jonathan Bree and Heather Mansfield both worked on solo material.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
