(Richard Kwong)

Formed out of a desire to have a water-tight creative unit unbounded by genre or fashion, The Tonights’ are built around the core trio of chief songwriter/pianist & bassist Eva Fritz, her guitar & bass playing brother Henry and her husband Christian Paul Sargeant, who fills the role of both drummer & producer. The bands’ sound is augmented by multi-instrumentalist Col McIntyre.

From hooky guitar riffs to atmospheric, piano-led mantras, The Tonights’ diverse yet distinctive sound journeys from symphonic pop to minimalist balladry; neo-psychedelia to undiluted rock -occasionally within the life of a single song. Always providing the bridge between these sometimes disparate styles is vocalist Eva Fritz-whose warm, melodic voice is at once sultry but vulnerable; reflective but hopeful and can possess an almost hymnal quality suggesting higher powers….

The Tonights self-titled debut album has received outstanding national and international reviews and airplay. The band take to Australia’s highways in 2007 to support the album, (released Nov 2005 through Sun & Air/MGM) and newly released ‘Tiptoes’ Remix EP.
