WA’s Rainy Day Women master the art of bright, savvy songwriting. The Perth-based five piece dropped their new single, ‘Ain’t It Time?’ back in August and have since hit the road picking up new fans along the way.
After an argument with a friend, frontman and songwriter Dylan Ollivierre vented his frustration in the studio and ‘Ain’t It Time?’ was born. The single is trademark Rainy Day Women – glowing indie pop gold wrapped in a sea of warm melodies. Recorded with Andy Lawson (Eskimo Joe, The Chemist) on a farm in south west Western Australia, the result is guitar riff goodness combined with a melodic 50’s rock’n’roll bend. Recently stepping up from a four-piece to a five, the quartet added a new body to their brood, giving Rainy Day Women a bolder presence and a fuller sound.
With an already impressive list of festivals under their belt including Soundbound, Big Day Out and Laneway Festivals, the outfit have also been invited to support Hungry Kids Of Hungary, Big Scary and San Cisco, Loon Lake, The Rubens and Ball Park Music.
On top of this they were also nominated for a ‘2012 Breakthrough Act’ and ‘Most Promising New Act’ at the prestigious 2012 WAMi Awards, the band went on to win the ‘WAM Song of the Year 2012’.
