FAST CARS

Fast Cars are a Sydney power pop band who started in the original days of the Sydney Mod Scene. Between 1980 and 1984, Fast Cars played nearly 100 shows in and around Sydney. Their first 7” single ''Saturday’s Girl / No Love Today'' was a massive radio hit with 2JJ and sold-out multiple pressings. The follow EP 'Annual 'was equally successful, as was the 1984 single, 'Love Child', an energy charged take on the Motown classic. Di Levy and Fabian Byrne now collaborate musically via the internet, as Di is based in Bristol, UK and Fabian is based in Sydney. Since reforming as Fast Cars in 2015, the duo has produced three singles and reissued a live album recorded by the original band in the 1980s. The band’s first full length studio album 'LAX' was released 5th March 2018 through Method Records and Music. Two albums followed 'Soft, Songs Of Love, Distance & Destinations' in 2019 and 'Hard' in 2022.
