About this act
This one started in 2013 as a few local guitarists and a drummer who just wanted to play together, and the shed sessions turned it into a working band. Gutsy pub rock is the sound, built on ZZ Top, the Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Cold Chisel and the rest of the 70s and 80s. They have played through Beaudesert, Kooralbyn, Park Ridge and Jimboomba, including Gasoline Alley's Ride to Fire Cancer three years running, Jimboomba Relay for Life twice, the Jimboomba Field Days, and a 100th anniversary for Russell Island State School. Every member sings, so the harmonies are real rather than programmed.
