Melbourne alternative rock band Everlyne inspire listeners to follow their own desired path despite expectation on new single Wreck-less.
The song serves as the next chapter in this fresh new era of Everlyne, continuing to lean into dark and cinematic electronic soundscapes established on previous single The Inbetween. In collaboration with producer Chris Lalic (Windwaker), Wreck-less showcases the power and versatility of vocalist Mackenzie Shaye, flaunting effortless pop sensibility and vocal lines delivered with conviction.
“Wreck-less is a fun track about being whatever you want to be in spite of everyone else” explains Shaye. “It’s a story of self-actualisation that tells the haters to ‘stick it’. It encourages others to follow their own path of discovery to evolve into their best selves.”
Wreck-less is an infectious upbeat offering paired with catchy melodic hooks satisfying fans of modern commercial rock, with dazzling electronic percussion and fuzzy guitar layers. These elements remain consistent with previous single The Inbetween, showcasing Everlyne at their strongest.
Forming in 2019, Everlyne is an energetic, alternative rock band specialising in their unique meld of soaring powerhouse vocals from vocalist Shaye against a backdrop of heavy-hitting, driving instrumentation from her three counterparts. Brothers Nathan Borg and Jordan Borg take on the roles of guitarist and bassist and are joined by drummer Sam Stone to make up the four-piece.
Influenced by staples of the alternative music scene in Paramore, Bring Me The Horizon and Halestorm, Everlyne toe the line connecting their influences and experiment with haunting vocal performances, chugging guitar riffs and contagious melodies.
Everlyne have been consistent with writing and recording and have showcased their electric live show in support of acts including Slowly Slowly, Columbus, The Smith Street Band, Vilify, ATLVS and Future Static. New singles Wreck-less and The Inbetween are the quartet’s first releases since their 2022 debut EP, ‘It’s Not Me, It’s You’ which saw radio play nationally on triple j’s short.fast.loud, Triple M’s Hard N Heavy, community radio and more.
Pooling their collective talent and energy together, Everlyne have a hunger to prove they’re an Aussie act to keep eyes on. Wreck-less is out now and streaming everywhere.
