Brisbane band Cheap Date’s debut single, ‘Beside Me’, is indicative of how a song’s escalation can be powerful and arresting. A gentle folk-driven track for the first minute or so, ‘Beside Me’ springs to life after its first third – from there, it transforms into an infectious indie rock jam. The arrival of the drums isn’t anticipated, yet it catches the listener off guard in the best way possible.
