GROUNDSWELL announces the arrival of their second full length release… “SUPERSWEET”, out on Cavalier Music.

For the uninitiated Groundswell are a Melbourne based band comprising of Michael Snowball(guitar, vocals), Ivan Jakic(bass, vocals) & David Kleynjans on drums.

Groundswell came together amidst the burning embers of Brit Pop releasing debut Ep “Skinflick” and gained instant respect as a band who knew how to put together a perfectly structured Pop song featuring contagious melodies and soaring harmonies that songwriters Michael & Ivan had drawn from their favourite exponents of the time Blur, Oasis, Pulp & Teenage Fanclub as well as Pop icons The Beatles & Brian Wilson.

Groundswell then released the indie-pop classic “GoodmorningTV” featuring 6 trax receiving rave reviews from Oz press incl. Rolling Stone and great support from JJJ & RRR radio stations lifting the profile of the band on the live circuit as well as being invited to record their follow-up single, “Club Mix”, withJJJ engineer/producer Chris Thompson at the ABC studios.

The year 2000 saw the release of the Wayne Connolly (Youth Group, You Am I) produced “Linchpin” that once again reached a new audience for Groundswell selling well OS, bringing the the attention of International Pop Music Lovers.

The collaboration with indie label “Cavalier Music” led to the long awaited release of a full length album, “Cosmopolitan”, which once again received glowing reviews & airplay, this time from all corners of the globe, UK, US, Japan, France, Yugoslavia & Argentina.
