Blackchords brand new 2nd - A Thin Line


05 Into The Unknown

After an extended hiatus, Blackchords are back and have been busy writing material for their third album ‘Shadows’. Forming in Melbourne, Blackchords quickly made a name for themselves when their 'chilling yet beautiful' music video ‘Broken Bones’ won Best Music Video in the prestigious St Kilda Film Festival.
Blackchords released their self-titled debut album through independent Melbourne label DustDevil Music, receiving widespread critical acclaim and rave reviews: “Melbourne quartet shoots for the stars on widescreen debut” (Rolling Stone). The album was shortlisted for The Australian Music Prize.
Songs from the debut album have been featured in the Australian television shows Underbelly: Razor, Offspring, Rescue Special Ops, Cops L.A.C. and international television including Teen Mom (MTV) and Being Human (NBC).
After extensive national touring, the band travelled to France and the UK, playing The Great Escape and Liverpool Sound City festivals. The music video for the band's second single ‘At World's End’ received airtime on MTV UK and NME TV. 
After returning to Australia, Blackchords accepted an invitation to open for Australian rock icons Powderfinger for the 'Sunset Sounds Farewell Tour' at Melbourne’s Sidney Myer Music Bowl. Blackchords went on to write and record the title track ‘As Night Falls’ for the Australian feature film ‘Blame’.
After a successful crowdfunding campaign, the band embarked on their sophomore album ‘A Thin Line’, working with Mercury Music Prize-nominated and Grammy Award-winning producer David Odlum (Glen Hansard, Tinariwen), releasing the album through ABC Music. As well as touring nationally, the band embarked on a tour of the USA and Canada, including performances at Austin's SXSW festival.
Through their relationship with music publisher Native Tongue, Blackchords continues to gain and maintain international exposure through features in acclaimed and popular television, such as Orange is the New Black (Netflix), Suits (UCP), Betrayal(ABC), Teen Wolf (MTV), Being Human (BBC), Shameless (Showtime) and more.
