Ahead of their debut EP release ‘Sex and Feuds’, The Dandys will be showcasing at BIGSOUND 2023. Just recently announced, the Brisbane/Meanjin-based punk/alt-rock darlings have been gifted a huge opportunity to perform at Australia’s most prestigous music industry event of the year.

The EP, ‘Sex and Feuds’, delves into the tumultuous voyage of adolescence with genuine and unfiltered expression. Brimming with attitude and lively vigour, the EP perfectly encapsulates the youthful exuberance and uninhibited passion of a budding musical ensemble uncovering their distinctive sound.
The lead single ‘Gums’ (out now) is a dynamic rollercoaster ride. The deliberate verses allow Protheroe’s commanding vocals to enunciate each word while the band maintains a composed and cool energy, providing a backdrop of grunge-infused blues-rock. As the tempo intensifies, the pre-chorus delves into deep territory before erupting into a liberating instrumental chorus adorned with a euphoric psychedelic guitar riff. The bridge and outro of the song surge forward with a fuzz-driven intensity, creating an absolute whirlwind of track.
Be sure to catch The Dandys showcasing at BIGSOUND and get amongst their debut EP ‘Sex and Feuds’ when it arrives on Friday, September 15.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
