CITY CALM DOWN have just released the music video to their single 'Your Fix' and I feel like I've moved back through time and into the 80's.

The Melbourne based four piece band who originally formed as first and second years at university have steadily grown as artists over the years, and whilst signing to I OH YOU a few years ago, they've only got bigger and better things to come.

Off of their latest debut LP, In A Restless House, frontman Jack Bourke draws us in with his emotive lyrics, harmonic synths and snappy drums.

The clip, directed by McLean Stephenson, captures the band performing in the moment a scintillating, spell binding and circling performance. Check the vid for 'Your Fix' below, oh and of course check out those beautifully odd dance moves.
