The new year saw ‘Stages of Fear’ attract international radio-play (sitting among AirIt’s weekly top 10 ‘Most Ordered for Airplay’ chart, as well as landing spot rotation on Triple J).

The pop trio PUBLIC has quickly made a name for themselves. In January, the group went to LA to record with Eric Palmquist (Bad Suns, Mars Volta) and is currently on tour with Oh Honey. Good Music All Day says “‘Heartbeating” presents PUBLIC as a rising rock band with a contagious indie style. A sort of love song with highly relatable lyrics about falling for a woman, the trio makes their mark with an effortless sense of harmony and entertaining musicality.” The band has performed SXSW, CMJ, and CMW, and supported acts including Neon Trees, Walk The Moon, Twenty One Pilots, among others.
