Overlake

Overlake is a New Jersey-based shoegaze/dream pop trio known for their swirling guitars, hypnotic rhythms, and introspective vibe. Formed in 2012 by singer/guitarist Tom Barrett and bassist Michelle Temple (later joined by drummer Nick D’Amore), they carved out a space in the modern shoegaze revival with releases like their debut album *Sighs* (2016) and follow-up *Fall* (2019). Their music blends ethereal textures with post-punk urgency, drawing comparisons to acts like Slowdive and The Cure. Recent singles like *Travelogue / Winter Is Why* (2022) showcase their continued exploration of moody, reverb-drenched soundscapes. Overlake maintains a loyal following through immersive live shows and a steadfast commitment to guitar-driven, emotionally resonant songwriting.
