The Idle Minds is the project of long-time musical collaborators and Brisbane independent artists Kody Roby and Pace Proctor. From support slots for Daryl Braithwaite and thousands of streams across their collaborations, this iteration is the definitive form for the pair. With the self-described goal of bringing back “middle-class pop”, Brisbane pop-rock outfit The Idle Minds blend anthemic hooks with raw emotional grit, delivering a sound that’s both timeless and fiercely modern.

A Brisbane-born artist recently returned home, Irvine’s musical identity is a tapestry of contrasts: from the eccentric energy of a Melbourne circus clown band to the storied traditions of Edinburgh’s folk scene - she is known for her whimsical folk sound, tender storytelling & delicately beautiful vocals. After pouring years of grit and heart into her duo Weird Cousins, the project’s dissolution led Irvine to tour with BBC Radio Scotland Singer-Songwriter of the Year shortlisted artist Moteh Parrott.
