Eora/Sydney-based indie rock rising stars Good Lekker have kicked off the New Year with the release of a zesty new single dubbed ‘Show I Care’.
Produced and mixed by Daniel Willington (Thunder Fox, ILUKA), the song is a meditation on the shape-shifting nature of life in your mid-20s.
Good Lekker – ‘Show I Care’
“I tried to keep the lyrics as simple as possible,” vocalist Joshua Fahy said in a statement. “To an extent, I want listeners to be able to embed their own meaning into the song, however they relate to it.”
Fahy explained that the song reflects him, in his mid-20s, “unsure of what comes next in life.” “It’s about dragging others along for the ride while goals dissipate and past dreams begin to look foreign to yourself,” he said. “It’s about the transience of friendship as everyone moves on to different stages of life and the difficulties of keeping in touch.
“It’s about trying to glue all these parts into a half-decent collage and loving what you make. Take your pick for what appeals to you.”
To celebrate the release, Good Lekker have announced an East Coast headline tour for May, taking in show at The Lady Hampshire in Eora/Sydney, The Workers Club in Naarm/Melbourne and O’Skulligans in Meanjin/Brisbane.
