Empty Fish Tank

Empty Fish Tank is a pop/rock indie project fronted by Anthony Silvestrini from the Blue Mountains. Started in 2013 and drawing on influences such as Crowded House and Powderfinger, debut album ’Same Old Same Old’ (2014) was mixed by Brad Jones (Bob Evans) and features fan favourites 'Are You Sticking Around?' and 'Long Gone'.
Sophomore album ‘Commerical Music’ (2018) showcased more complex songwriting while still maintaining high energy songs. Mixed by Paul McKercher (Augie March, You Am I), and mastered by William Bowden (Gotye, Ball Park Music), the album included the amphetamine hoedown 'Good New For No One', the pure-form 60s R&B 'Nala', and the impostor rock 'Jynx'.
Album 3 ‘Doge’ (2020) was recorded using only 1 microphone live-to-tape reel, replicating lofi recording techniques from the 50s with modern indie compositions such as ‘FCG’ and ‘Nothing’s Stopping Time’.
Album 4 ‘UNO’ (2020) was a live-to-tape solo record featuring new arrangements of songs spanning across the 3 previous albums.
2022 saw the release of ‘Ladybeetle’ (2022), which features storytelling through much shorter compositions like in singles ‘Maybe Sorrow’, ‘2 Months’ and ‘I Want To Believe’. A companion piece EP ‘Little Chicken’ (2023) was released the following year.
