a reflective indie rock turn built on patience, honesty, and quiet resolve

“decide” opens with plaintive piano, setting a tone that feels immediately interesting, before exploding into a catchy, power pop banger to close the year.

based in austin, southbank shape their sound with restraint and emotional clarity. the arrangement grows carefully, and the songwriting craft is really impressive. at the centre is an honest vocal delivery that we love, unguarded, steady, and deeply human. nothing feels overplayed here. the production gives space for the song to breathe, allowing uncertainty and reflection to sit comfortably in the mix.

“decide” is released as a single and captures that suspended moment between action and waiting. it is thoughtful without feeling heavy, melodic without chasing drama. it’s also got a great guitar solo. overall, we’re big fans.

thank u for making this southbank 🌫️
