    Just dropped a new track, sludgy grooves from Oz

    Yo, my band Whiskey & Speed just dropped our first new track in years. Sweetness. I'm really goddamn proud of this one and how it turned out. It's the first track of our upcoming EP "Better Than Expected". A little less punk, a little more grunge. I guess? Idk, I'm stoked on it. Check it out if...

    Another punk show Down Under, if anyone's around Brissy. My band is calling it a day after almost a decade, we're kickin' at as we should and partying at a rad little DIY space called Common House with some of our favourite locals. This band has been a massive part of my life and it's a bit...

    Photos The nights that count

    Over the past year or two a like minded mate and I have have seemingly (accidentally) created a little scene within a scene here in Pig City (Brisbane, Australia).

    Event Crusty Park Jams! (BNE, AU)

    While I'm yet to find any others on here from or travelling thorough Brisbane, Australia I thought I'd share this regardless (just in case!). This Friday (14/04) is a public holiday, so me and my mate Chris (from rad folk punk act Hang) think that calls for acoustic crusty park jams! Come...
