Lime Cordiale
Sydney band led by brothers Oli and Louis Leimbach, pairing brassy, sun-baked indie pop with wry, self-deprecating lyrics. 'Robbery' is the one everyone sings back.
About Lime Cordiale
Lime Cordiale formed in Sydney around 2009 and spent several years on EPs and steady touring before releasing the debut album Permanent Vacation in 2017. The follow-up, 14 Steps to a Better You, arrived in 2020 and went to number one in Australia, helped by 'Robbery' and 'On Our Own', both heavily played on triple j.
The band's records mix jangly guitars, horn lines and falsetto harmonies with lyrics that tend to laugh at the narrator's own failings in love and life. They made a joint EP, Cold Feet, with Idris Elba, and followed it with the album Enough of the Sweet Talk.
