DAREBIN band Daydream Arcade looks set for a high flying future.
The five 18 and 19-year-old members of the indie pop group have a dizzying array of gigs to look forward to, including the Darebin Community and Kite Festival on Sunday.
The group is also a finalist in this year’s Freeza Push Start Battle of the Bands and will compete in the grand final at the Abbotsford Convent on March 14.
In addition they will be taking to the stage at the Thornbury Theatre for National Slam Day on February 23, the Northcote Social Club - supporting the Vaudauville Smash - on February 25, and Moomba on March 10.
To round out the hectic schedule, the band is taking on a Wednesday night residency at The Evelyn Hotel in Fitzroy throughout March.
It’s a lot to juggle, considering the band’s members all finished school in the past two years and some are starting university this month.
Singer Olivia Romas said the group loved performing at Darebin Council events.
They were all looking forward to the Kite Festival, she said.
“We all congregate around Northcote anyway so it’s easy for our supporters.
“It’s also good for networking with local bands.”
She said the band, influenced by Two Door Cinema Club, Jackson Jackson and Cut Copy, hoped to release an EP later this year.
