‘Sucker Punch’, co-written with renowned Australian producer Robby De Sa (grentperez, The Veronicas, Blusher) is a sun-soaked, heart-thumping dose of indie-dream-pop made for falling in love when you least expect it.
“This is a story about swearing off dating and being content on your own, only to suddenly meet someone who changes everything. ‘It’s like BAM you meet someone out of nowhere and you’re like ‘oh wow you amazing’ but also ‘oh no, this wasn’t a part of the plan and I and don’t want to get my heart broken again.” SOPHIE PATRICK – BETTY TAYLOR
Fronted by Sophie, with harmonies and dreamy guitar from Kayla Smart (AKA Dorah Jacson), Claire Chittick on bass and Katie Ishaque on drums, this four piece went from performing open mic in a backyard show to one of Australia’s most beloved emerging acts in just 2 and half years!
Their debut single ‘Stallin’, produced by Aidan Hogg (G Flip, Holy Holy), premiered on triple j and has clocked close to 1 million streams. One year later in 2023, the band joined global agency WME and hit the stage alongside girl in red, Beddy Rays, and The Rubens as well as an extensive tour of the UK and Europe with The Grogans.
Their second single ‘Glitter’ earned strong triple j support and tracks ‘Can’t Get Enough’ and ‘Young Dumb Immature’ landed in triple j’s top ten most-played tracks securing major Spotify, Apple, and YouTube editorial playlisting – featuring on the covers of Fresh Finds, Indie Arrivals, and New Music Friday.
With some huge wins at Australian radio the bands reach is growing fast with support at college and specialty radio support across the US, where their debut EP ‘Young Dumb Immature’, broke into the NACC and SubModern charts. They also played to packed rooms at this year’s SXSW Festival in Austin.
They are fast becoming one of indie-pop’s most exciting developing acts, winning fans around the world with their sincerity and sound. Betty Taylor is the friend who holds your hand after a heartbreak and are an endearing and pure live force! Four best friends simply having the time of their lives!
