Convenience Store is the Naarm/Melbourne art-rock project of Nick Baker and Jack Hill. The duo have been recording music in their DIY basement studio for over five years, creating inventive rock music which invokes the emotive music of Alex G, Porridge Radio, and DIIV. Convenience Store is ensconced in a scene of young local acts interested in sincere, forward-thinking music and distrustful of the status quo. Their tracks–like their inspirations–reach in different directions but are unified by the sorts of questions they ask: What else is out there? What is Australia? What good is love? Their grassroots audience has grown both locally and abroad (in the USA and UK) with radio play on KEXP, RRR, Double J and Triple J. Live performances at the Heide Museum of Modern Art and a support slot with beloved alt-RNB act 'Big Words' showcase a unique and experimental live set haunted by the detritus of rock convention that fuses personal and political confessions. Their monthly single releases have become an anticipated event, growing their steady following of monthly listeners and attracting attention from programs such as ABC’s Rage, where their filmic DIY music videos have landed multiple 'Wild One' features. :-)
