Australian rock band LEADFINGER are due to release their fantastic new album in early 2022 through Golden Robot Records, their first since the highly regarded 2016 album, Friday Night Heroes.
In the lead up, the band are releasing some preview singles, third of which is ‘Girl on a Bus’, a non-album single to follow up previous singles NOBODY KNOWS and THE FALL OF ROME. ‘Girl on a Bus’ is available now on all digital platforms.
Listen to ‘Girl on a Bus’
‘Girl on a Bus’ is a power-pop classic and is filled with 70’s guitar hooks and catchy vocal melodies. It would surely have been a contender for a feel-good hit of the summer back in 1971 and with a bit of luck it might be in 2021 too.

ABOUT LEADFINGER
The name LEADFINGER was originally a nome de plume for the band’s songwriter/guitarist/hero of the oppressed etc, Stewart ‘Leadfinger’ Cunningham.
After first plying his guitar-slinger trade in the late 80’s with Wollongong’s seminal pre-grunge Proton Energy Pills, Cunningham headed to Sydney to play in underground guitar bands – Brother Brick, Asteroid B-612 and Challenger-7 – as well as a stint in Melbourne with The Yes-Men.
After forming LEADFINGER in 2006 as a solo project, it morphed into a twin guitar rock n’ roll band that released its 5th album, ‘Friday Night Heroes’ in July 2016 and toured Europe in October 2017.
LEADFINGER mine the deep seam of rock’n’roll, back through the 70’s rock and punk era’s to the classic Stones and Dylan records of the 60’s and beyond. Their timeless songwriting and heart on sleeve delivery has won them many fans! They have had no hits, won no awards and aren’t on Instagram but they will release their 6th album through Golden Robot Records.
