The Simpletons were a Northern NSW band, who won the Campus Bands comp in
the mid 90's then released 2 EPs and 3 albums with related singles.
Unfortunately they imploded, but not before leaving some fantastic songs
like this one. Another legacy of their existence was the forming of the
Candle Records label.
Hope you know the song, if not - hunt the album down (you won't get
much better aquostic rock than this).
