"ENOLA FALL – SUBURBAN LOVERS EP"

Suburban Lovers is a ridiculously diverse EP. Each song is imbued with its own personality albeit underwritten by the lovingly guileful commands of Enola Fall’s indie pastiche. This release shows the building maturity of Enola Fall as they transition from the pre-adolescence of their I Am An Aerial EP into the fully-fledged modern man that is Suburban Lovers. - Brisbane society of sound


"Scared of Boys"

Enola Fall seem capable of a heap of different sounds. This one hits the anthemic, uplifting button and nails it. - Triple J

"ISOLATIONIST - Enola Fall"

"For such a small island, Tasmania has a bit of a musical storm brewing, and sitting right at the centre is Enola Fall. Their soaring guitar riffs and Nuttall’s distinctive voice separate them from the hoards of indie man-meets-guitar bands that fill the airwaves, while their style stretches from the darkly intense to the edgy side of folk." - Sonic Democracy

"THE BEARDS, LITTLE BASTARD, ENOLA FALL"

Hobart’s Enola Fall are greeted by a substantial audience at The Hi-Fi tonight, a factor they take full advantage of with a highly committed performance. Frontman Joe Nuttall displays great versatility, singing with a strength that suggests training, while switching between guitar, piano and banjo duties seamlessly. Their set is brief, yet the trio leave a solid mark on the evening’s proceedings. - themusic.com.au


"Enola Fall The Jezabels, Toff in Town, Melbourne"

I must admit that I had never heard of opening act Enola Fall until the curtains drew back to reveal them on the stage. At first glance they appeared as a standard four-piece rock ensemble with a multi-instrumental front man (Joe Nuttal). A few songs in, however, and I honestly (momentarily) forgot who the headline act was. They were The Killers with a male Amanda Palmer at the helm (or, The Killers if Brandon Flowers actually had talent), delivering a nice blend of the “alternative” standard; piano-driven, melodic rock and “normal” guitar based rock. It wasn’t anything particularly new but it was delivered with technical perfection.

Unfortunately much of the band’s potential did appear to revolve around Nuttal’s quirky, energetic presence and solid skills on piano, guitar and vocals while the rest of the group were mostly stationary and giving basic instrumental input. Still, they certainly are the best thing to come out of Tasmania in a very long time (possibly ever). As for their success in regards to getting the crowd pumped: they handed out a notepad so the band could learn what Melbournians thought (good or bad) and there was a rather large group of thoroughly entertained Jezabels fans asking if they could be the next person to write praise. - Rave Review


"Enola Fall Candy's Apartment Sydney"

Enola Fall took to the stage, with a
haunting shanty. They ripped through their songs, offering
wide-ranging emotion from their musicianship and vocal stylings.
Their sound reflected their CD, more regimented than fluid but their
performance was strong and at times touching. Vocalist Joe Nutall
showed a great rapport with the dedicated audience and although
introverted in his delivery, still brought some charisma.

After listening to their album and
commenting on the nuances in Nutall's voice, being somewhat forced in
a recording, their live performance allayed any concerns of stifled
singing. High points include the album opener "I
Don't Drive", and "One Winged Plane". - AU Review

Bio

Enola Fall are four guys from Hobart, Tasmania. Who have been slowly building a national reputation for powerful live shows, and dark, infectious indie-pop.

Their new EP 'Suburban Lovers' was released in June 2013, and has recieved airplay on over 150 US radio stations.

Produced by Lachlan Mitchell (The Jezabels, Something with Numbers) the EP is the follow up to the 2012 collection Isolationist, and 2011 EP I am an Aerial.

Simultaneously darker, yet more danceable than their previous work, the EP’s five tracks focus on love, desperation and hangovers in Hobart’s familiar-but-isolated suburban sprawl.

Enola Fall has been described as ‘Tasmania’s hardest working band’, touring nationally, recording almost constantly and filming everything as they go... The new EP itself is the result of a successful kickstarter campaign run by the band.

In 2012 the band supported the likes of Amanda Palmer, The Violent Femmes, Sparkadia, The Jezabels and The Beards as well as scoring a spot at the MONA FOMA, Falls and Peats Ridge festivals.

In 2013, the band traveled to the USA for the first time. Playing the Aussie BBQ at CMJ, a house of blues show in Los Angeles and a Balcony TV set alongside The Preatures.
