Iconique melds disco rhythms and silky synth highlights to draw out the shimmering grit within pop music. Since arriving onto the scene in 2015, the band's opulent sound has earned praise from a diverse set of media outlets and has been featured in Billboard, Earmilk, Gawker Media, and World of Wonder. The group electrifies live audiences with over-the-top displays of grandeur and the occasional keytar solo. Before their first pair of dance shoes had even worn through, Iconique graced the stage of some of Los Angeles's most in vogue venues including The Echoplex, and The Troubadour and The Moroccan Lounge. The trio consists of brothers Eric Promani (drums / synths) and Greg Promani (guitar), and frontman Leo Paparella (vocals / synths). Listeners are lured onto the dance floor with a synthesis of sounds ranging from Chic to David Bowie. By drawing from the past, Iconique creates the disco of the future.

Nick and Emma first met back in 2016 when Nick ran a music workshop for her and a group of school mates. Emma was shy, but the lovely energy of the whole crew running the workshop, paired with bonding through love of music broke that darn ice! - Nick then recorded Emma's first EP a few months later, and the two kept in touch. There was a 9 year gap in the middle where they lived on opposite ends of the globe, (Emma in Canada and then England) here the two explored other avenue's of music in their own bubbles. When Em moved back to Australia in 2016, they put a name to their \ band, heaps good pals...no wait that doesn't sound right...how around real good friends? Nick, I think 'heaps good' is better.  OK we'll go with that. HEAPS GOOD FRIENDS. The two were quickly noticed by Triple J who gave them the honour of opening groovin the moo in Adelaide in 2017. They toured Australia a number of times, Released their first 6 track EP titled 'Hug Me', and the single 'Fold Laundry Together' in May of 2020. Between writing and shows, the two have taken breaks to do life for a bit, returning to the writing room with good experiences and content to throw onto the pile. Their love for crafting quality pop is as strong as ever! They kick off the new year with their latest hit "Up Close And Personal"
