A few years ago a band was formed "...with one foot entrenched in the past (Wire, XTC, Talking Heads, The Ex) and another in some ethereal neverland." (Rave Magazine)
The band was noisy and quiet, liked sharp angles and soft shapes, played vintage instruments and brand new ones, liked enchanting rhymes and forbidden tales, loud drums and invisible sounds and most of all making music with everything they had until forever.
After releasing the Shoot the Lights Out 7" on limited edition green vinyl, the band recorded their debut album TRIANGLE ISLAND produced in Australia by Magoo (Midnight Oil, Regurgitator, Gerling) and mastered by Steve Fallone (The Strokes, Sonic Youth, TV on the Radio) in NYC.
Recent overseas and Australian tours have further established Flamingos live gatherings of tribal beats space pop & frantic rocknroll, alongside sharing stages with some including The Go! Team, Maximo Park, Lily Allen, The Bravery, Love is All, The Presets & You Am I.
Flamingo have sparked whispers on the street, played in your city, danced through your airwaves, and recorded an album that is as much about celebration as it is imagination.
