Poolside is the recording project of producer, songwriter and multi- instrumentalist Jeffrey Paradise. In 2011 Poolside set out to produce appropriately chill music for summer soirees, a light but danceable kind of music with sunny vibes and liquid rhythm that Paradise dubbed “Daytime Disco.” Since then, Poolside has released four acclaimed albums – Pacific Standard Time (2012), Heat (2017), Low Season (2020) and this year’s Blame It All On Love (2023) – remixed countless high-profile acts such as Billy Idol, Jack Johnson & Milky Chance, DRAMA, Miami Horror, L’impératrice, Purple Disco Machine, Big Wild, Zoe and more. Poolside has also recently collaborated with Todd Edwards, NEIL FRANCES, Brijean, Foster The People and Buscabulla.

Poolside’s fourth studio album ‘Blame It All On Love’ finds singer, songwriter, producer, multi-instrumentalist and visionary Jeffrey Paradise leading the shallows and entering the depths of his own creative voice. Its 11 tracks are funky, soulful, laidback and full of hooks that elevate Poolside’s sound to poignant pop heights.

The album’s many collaborators — Vansire, Panama, slenderbodies, MUNYA, Ora The Molecule, Ben Browning, Life On Planets & Mazy — bring both breadth and depth, pushing Poolside’s sound in new directions that stay true to Paradise’s taste and sensibilities.

Onstage, Poolside bring their signature ‘daytime disco’ sound to nnew heights as a formidable 5-piece ensemble comprised of accomplished veteran players who have left indelible marks on indie rock and electronic music over the course of the last two decades.

Poolside has toured performing with artists such as Kacey Musgraves, Earth, Wind & Fire, LCD Soundsystem, and Tycho and appearing at major music festivals including Coachella, Primavera, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands and Corona Capital.

The live band combines the raw power of rock ‘n roll with the nonstop groove of disco and dance music.

Harvey Sutherland wrote his debut album “Boy” in a circular loop between his studio and his psychotherapist. A hypermodern groove, guided by his obsessional traits and habits, ending up in a place he describes as neurotic funk. “Electronic music has that archetype of the brooding, faceless producer”, he says, “I like hacking that, doing the opposite, embracing awkwardness and oversharing”. His face is on the cover.

The Melbourne-born record producer, keyboard player, club DJ and bandleader made a name amongst his hometown’s electronic underground with a string of cult disco singles and lo-fi cassette funk. Early 12-inches like “Bermuda” and “Priestess” were dance records in love with the sound of soul and disco music. But “Boy” is every bit the real deal.

His machine grooves are fired through a prism of crate-digging influences, from Todd Rundgren to Basic Channel and back again. His distinctive synthesiser tones have graced remixes and production for Disclosure, Khruangbin, Genesis Owusu and BadBadNotGood. A seasoned performer, he’s taken his live band to Glastonbury, dragged his Juno-60 into Berghain and turned the Melbourne Recital Centre into a full-fledged nightclub for his album launch. He is eclectic, obsessional and groovy. Harvey Sutherland is Neurotic Funk.
