About Me

Dynamic guitar layering, groovin' double bass, brothers harmonizing, fat Djembe beats and with new added drums, you’re sure to be dancing!
From the humble origins of a small coastal village on the far south coast of NSW brothers Brendan and Adrian Kyneur have played music all their years.
Their surf/roots inspired songs written by Brendan and produced by both brothers are heavily influenced by the likes of Sublime, Bob Marley, Crowded House & Michael Franti to name a few, and have been said to resemble the work of Jack Johnson and John Butler.
After moving to ‘the big smoke’ of Sydney and receiving great feedback from their duo performances as ‘The SPC’, Adrian and Brendan decided to start expanding their line up and so joining forces with Liam Baker and Sasha Payne on lead guitars and Oli Simpson on Double Bass, Lounge Act was born in April ’07.
Their debut EP “4 Days On Mars” Recorded, Mixed and Mastered in 4 days at Planet Mars Studios, Cobargo NSW by Damon Davies, was released in November 2007 and have since played many well known venues around Sydney, Central and South Coasts.
Always looking for that extra something special for our sound, February 2008 has seen the brotherhood grow to bring a sixth member to the lounge, Miles Horler on Drums and in doing so bringing the bands soundscape much closer to the reggae/rock that has influenced the songs yet maintaining our home grown roots.
