Full Biography
Forged in the divide between art and science, Grafton Primary have developed their razor-sharp edge in the quiet of the night but with the release of their album,they stepped into the light.
Their debut EP ‘Relativity’, with its devastating synth hooks and infectious lyrics, found the title cut becoming a regular fixture on triple j and independent radio nationwide, and helped the band secure a slot in the J’s ‘Next Crop’ promotion.
From punters in Melbourne storming the stage, to shows that brought scenesters, randoms and the invisible underground together, this lyrical electro-noir trio has consistently defied expectations, whether it be with their original tracks, or remixes for the likes of Faker that have scored them airplay on commercial networks.
They set pulses racing at most major Sydney festivals last summer – including Field Day, Big Day Out, Good Vibrations and Playground Weekender – and then Grafton Primary expanded the theory of ‘Relativity’ with their debut album ‘Eon’.
The basslines growled and swaggered over heavy beats on the opening ‘Records For The Righteous’, making it clear that this was an act with something to say, and the means to say it, with subversive lyrics set to kick start the [r]evolution.
