Darlinghurst keeps it short but not so sweet with their latest single “Unfaithful.” Proving that some of the best things come in small packages, the single is just over two and a half minutes. But its sublime harmonies and irresistibly catchy melody help it punch well above its weight.
“Unfaithful is a song about the betrayal of one’s trust, caused by another’s ulterior motives. The inspiration came from a walk-through Palm Springs, California – surrounded by the concept of beauty and contentment; but to then have a self-realisation that what we consider paradise, beautiful and everlasting – may not be what they’re perceived to be,” explained lead vocalist Jason Resch.
It’s pretty heavy subject matter, but Darlinghurst’s light touch balances the darkness. Just see if you can resist tapping your toes along to the beat. If you love what you hear, make sure you catch Darlinghurst at one of the following venues in the coming months:
