Pyramid Scheme

Small Town Life

Recorded by Owen Butcher at Studio 301 (Gang of Youths, Birds of Tokyo) ‘Dumb Decisions features relatable themes of sharehouse living, drunken nights, situationships and a risky friends-to-lovers story.

Lizzie - "I've never been good at writing sappy love songs, they always had to be fuelled by conflict. I was friends with my partner for a few years before we drunkenly admitted our feelings for each other."

We've previously been in the Unearthed charts and are playing at Yours and Owls 2023.

Ben's Backyard is about having fun and drinking on the beach in a small town which is most of what we did. Sonically, the track radiates a summer afternoon feel and would be paired perfectly with a
blanket, bottle of red, and some windswept ocean views. Taking notes from Tired Lion, Waax and Maddy Jane, this is nostalgic summer song that we hope people can relate to.

Once described as "Courtney Barnett T-boning Joan Jett, while they were both singing Dolly Parton" Lizzie Jack and the Beanstalks are a four-piece indie rock band from Wollongong. 

Forming in 2019, they have become one of the staple acts in Wollongong and Sydney, sharing the stage with Gooch Palms, MID CITY, The Buoys and Eliza And The Delusionals.

The band presents a hybrid of folk-esque storytelling and garage rock, taking influence from Ruby Fields, Alex Lahey, Eliza and the Delusionals and Spacey Jane. The Beanstalks are anthemic, authentic and here to leave a lasting impression. 

Their live show presence has not gone unnoticed, headlining sell-out shows across the Illawarra from Thirroul to Port Kembla and taking out the top spot in the 2021 UOW Band Comp.

With new music on the horizon and a slot at Yours and Owls Festival 2023, you don’t want to sleep on The Beanstalks’ and their brand of summer-soaked, nostalgic anthems.
