BONFIRE NIGHTS

AUSSIE GARAGE POPSTERS BONFIRE NIGHTS HIT THE U.S

After a highly successful UK tour supporting Scottish indie rockers Sons & Daughters, the band are again looking to foreign shores as they plan tour dates to coincide with their official SXSW 2012 showcase.

Formed in Brisbane 2010 it hasn't taken the band long to attract international attention. Adopting a minimalist approach, they recorded their first self-titled EP on a four-track analogue tape machine. The outcome was an eclectic mix, ranging from the light and airy schweppervescence of " Leave Yourself Open" to the darker and harder candy of "Own Worst Enemy".

The EP has received airplay in the U.K, Japan and of course Australia. Their live performances have been the inspiration for sentences like this one from Faster Louders Stew Riddle “At all times, they exude a confidence and energy that is infectious and enthralling. This is a band that is going places.”   Check out the places they are going below and listen to " Own Worst Enemy". The EP of the same name will be out on March 27.
