SOFT RULES

Soft Rules was born out of late-night songwriting sessions between vocalist David Dee and guitarist Brad Lee. Casual jamming soon evolved into a fully realised project - marked by sonic aggression, textured waves of sound, with melancholic and unsettling lyricism.

David’s lyrics, shaped by a past that lingers beneath the surface, take aim at every strata of society. His words are set against Brad’s guitars, which shift between grungy intensity and atmospheric depth, themselves juxtaposed against Callum Browne's ethereal synth soundscapes. Drummer Sebastiano Toscano grounds the band in a relentless rhythm, while Ian McFarlane locks it all together on bass with his deep, driving grooves.

Soft Rules have rapidly gained a reputation for their raw and visceral live performances, drawing in an audience that resonates with their uncompromising artistic vision. With each release, they evolve further into their distinct, heavy sound—solidifying their place as one of the most compelling voices in modern music.
