Alyce Platt, one of Australia’s most beloved TV stars (Sons And Daughters, Neighbours, Sale Of The Century), has spent 15 years performing with her Fish Shop Collective and releasing acclaimed records like Funny Little World. Nicky Del Rey, one of Melbourne’s finest guitarists, has played with Tex Perkins, Intoxica, The Cartridge Family, Monique Brumby and many others.
Together, Jack, Alyce and Nick bring decades of songwriting and performing experience to their new trio. They’ve collaborated for over ten years, weaving trumpet, electric and acoustic guitars, and three distinct voices into a warm, spacious sound. Their performances combine soul-searching lyricism, melodic hooks and gorgeous three-part harmonies, with Jack’s horn-driven punch, Alyce’s sophistication and Nick’s touch of country – delivering songs that are as powerful as they are intimate.
