About Me

"Unlike a lot of recent indie rockery, every track here has its own refreshing personality and range of emotion. Matched with a production as clever as the songwriting, 'Fight the Sunset' is all class." -- Lachlan Marks, Drum Media. (Listed as one of Drum Media's Best EPs of 2006)

"I just like how it sounds young, but old, how it floats but soars and how there is an obvious talent in the first efforts of this young group". -- Kirsty Brown, Brag Magazine."The EP strives to soar and comes close enough on Devoted Youth and Pale Signs, which has scored airplay on Nova...there is promise here." -- Kelsey Munro, Sydney Morning Herald. December 1st 2006. 3.5 Stars."I could describe the atmosphere of this EP in one word - shimmering...it captures your imagination, grabs your attention and gives you wonderful little surprises along the way." -- Corey Stewart, The Bizzo. 30th October 2006Days Like Stars is a four piece band from Sydney, Australia who have released 2 EPs. We tend to write songs about wanting more than we already have. We've supported Bluebottle Kiss, Jakob (NZ) and Neon as well as bands like Thirsty Merc and Sarah McLeod (The Superjesus). We have featured on TV shows such as Love My Way and The Alice. In fact we're on the Love My Way official soundtrack alongside internationally successful Australian artists like The Finn Brothers, Eskimo Joe and Missy Higgins. Crazy. We've been lucky enough to be played locally on FBi Radio and NOVA 96.9 as well as nationally on JJJ and regionally on the SEA FM/HOT/STAR radio network. Our EP, ‘Fight the Sunset’ was produced by Luke Hanigan (Lo-tel) and MGM kindly puts it on shelves when cool retailers ask for it. It's also for sale on itunes and when we play shows. Speaking of shows, it'd be awesome to see you at one soon!Join our Mailing List here! http://dayslikestars.com/newsletter.html
