“Don’t wait is just a song about going out, finding a girl and dancing with her. Living life and having a good time. With everybody. Together. We don’t think that just because we have a reggae feel in some of our music that we should preach righteousness, sing about smoking ganja, or pretend to be Bob Marley. Enough people do that already. It’s just a pop song.” – The Beautiful Girls<\/p>\n

Now that’s a refreshingly honest and unapologetic introduction to what is indeed a catchy poppy song with a reggae feel. It’s called “Don’t Wait.” Have a listen<\/span>:<\/p>\n

The Beautiful Girls<\/a> hail from Australia and are indeed beautiful<\/a>, albeit not female. The sound they create is an electric harmony of rock, reggae, pop and folk<\/a>, which at times sounds a lot like the boys from the softer surfer-singer-songwriter corner (most notably Jack Johnson, to whom lead singer Mat McHugh<\/a> bears a striking resemblance), and at other times sounds much less<\/em> soft…<\/p>\n

The rootsy carefree sound of “Don’t Wait’ will get you grooving in no time.<\/p>\n
