Underlying pop sensibilities, rumbling beneath a wearied country swagger and driving Springsteen-like grit set apart Lazy Colts as Sydney's newest alt-country heartbreakers. Cole's songs are romantic and evocative as he sings stories steeped in religion, love, death, anxiety and violence amongst beautifully crafted arrangements by Michael Bridges on violin, Sinj Clarke on piano and organ, David Keys on bass and Craig Collier on drums. There is restraint, confidence and a sense of accomplished musicianship in the band's support of Cole's electrifying stage presence and captivating story telling.
