The Goon Sax are an indie pop band hailing from Brisbane, Australia, known for their witty lyrics and catchy, jangle-pop sound that channels the spirit of post-punk and new wave music. The trio, consisting of James Harrison, Louis Forster, and Riley Jones, formed in 2013 when they were still in their high school years. Their name, a pun on the revered musical instrument and a nod to the legendary John Coltrane, reflects the band's playful approach to music.

The band's debut album, "Up to Anything," released in 2016, showcased their unpolished charm and a knack for crafting relatable, coming-of-age anthems. The Goon Sax's sound matured with their 2018 follow-up, "We're Not Talking," which deepened their exploration of adolescent angst and heartache through more sophisticated arrangements and a broader sonic palette. With the release of their third album, "Mirror II," in 2021, The Goon Sax solidified their place in the indie scene, delving into darker and more introspective themes while maintaining the alluring melodies that have become their hallmark. Accompanied by a deluxe edition that offers additional insight into their creative process, this record features stand-out tracks such as "In the Stone" and "Psychic," which contribute to the trio's growing repertoire of intelligent, emotion-rich music that resonates with a global audience.
