Southbank is a 5-piece band based in Austin, Texas whose sound straddles the line between the twang and swagger of Old 97’s and the clever power pop of Fountains of Wayne. There’s a sweet, familiar Americana hum under the jangly guitars and catchy melodies, while the lyrics bounce from the quirky corners of suburban life to the soul-crushing absurdity of office jobs to the tangled, beautiful, messy reality of relationships.
