Tue, 24 Mar 2009 00:45:27 +1100

The Grates were another one of those bands that was on full alert for the Aussie BBQ at SXSW.

After having done the Austin music conference in ’06, The Grates knew exactly how they needed to “work the room” and did so successful in front of a full crowd at the Aussie BBQ at Brush Square Park.

It has been a great few years for The Grates. The album ‘Teeth Lost, Hearts Won’ got them noticed across Australia and now they are off to tackle the huge American market.

Lead singer Patience Hodgson had presence on stage and when she got off stage, she talked to Undercover.
