Biography
Sundays Away is a musical project devoted to simple melodies about life. The stripped back foundations of the songs are a clear homage to DIY punk rock past, while intricate overdubs lift emotions with effective simplicity.
Sundays Away's primary songwriter Chad Peacock first picked up a guitar at sixteen when his sister left home (leaving her electric guitar under her bed). The songs started coming immediately and a four track was promptly purchased to capture the simple melodies. The aspiration to join a band was achieved when at nineteen he was approached to join the already established punk act 'kerb'. The band went on to record and release their debut album later that year, winning a Western Australian music award for best punk act. When Kerb disbanded in 1999, Chad founded the melodic power pop band 'lewis' who dissolved after a short live stint and EP.
