Alpine are a six-piece indie-rock band from Melbourne, Australia. National radio station Triple J played their demos on air and awarded them the ‘JJJ Un-Earthed Feature Artist Of The Week’ blue ribbon before they even had time to prepare their first live show. The band signed to Ivy League Records in August 2010, and released a single, 'Heartlove' a month later. Their first record, an EP titled 'Zurich', is set to be released in November 2010.
