TY

Hailing from Detroit, TY (pronounced tee why) have drums that sound like the headbutt the green viking guy does in Golden Axe II for the Sega Genesis. The lead singer grunting like the viking guy from Golden Axe II taking damage and, if you really listen for it, the guitar sounds ever so slightly like the special attack the green, bearded viking warrior does in 1991's Golden Axe II. Their brand of kickass garage punk is sure to please fans of Golden Axe II as well as those who have never even played the beat-em-up classic.

“...band I dont know much about cuz I just got into them. They’re from Detroit uhh… they’re called ‘TY’ and I believe that stands for thank you?” - Henry Rollins

THE UNKNOWNS

Since forming in late 2014, The Unknowns (Joshua Hardy – vocals/guitar, Nathan Montgomery – bass, Tom Butler – drums, Eamon Sandwith - guitar) have brought their old-fashioned authentic rock n’ roll to numerous venues around Australia, including but not limited to: The Triffid, 170 Russell, Sol Bar, The Gov, The Zoo, The Tote, Factory Theatre and the Barwon Club. The band has also supported North American power pop trio Mean Jeans on their recent Australian tour, and Melbourne punk pioneers the Meanies. They have toured and performed alongside Ed Kuepper (The Saints), Frenzal Rhomb, The Chats, Clowns, Pist Idiots and countless more. Driven by their passion for timeless music expressing honest emotions, the band delivers an unassuming simplicity through sharing their garage rock and power pop song writing sensibilities. With dynamic live sets and their enigmatic stage presence, The Unknowns perform with a sense of freedom and passion that is indicative of not only their youthful enthusiasm for all things punk rock, but also with the ability to harbour and nurture their strong bond as friends and band mates hailing from Southeast Queensland. Their songs have a romantic overture that is reminiscent of the first 3 Ramones albums, pouring ones heart out through the medium of well written garage punk music. The riffs are all power, full of hooks and fascinating melodic guitar interplay between Hardy and Sandwith.
