Optic

About Me

heavy alternative rock with female vocals
a vibrant sound rich with darkness and light


The members of Optic have been playing music together since their high school days of 2002. Initially working under the name "Lucid Falls", the band played the local Melbourne scene during 2004 and 2005, before withdrawing in 2006 to undergo some huge changes. Working with producer Lee Cheney, the band created the album "Stimulus : Response", which has now been finished

ALBUM FINISHED - we're still sorting out distribution for this album, but if you'd like a copy, drop us a line at [email protected] .

Live Videos: Special thanks to Tim Hnativ ( www.youtube.com/timheist ) for recording these for us!
