Amyl And The Sniffers
Amyl and the Sniffers are a punk band possessed by the spirit of seventies Australian rock. Amy Taylor (vocals), Bryce Wilson (drums), Dec Martens (guitar) and Gus Romer (bass) are former housemates who formed the band, wrote a handful of tunes and released their debut EP, Giddy Up, all in a span of 12 hours. Taking their cues from a diverse bunch of legends including AC/DC, Cosmic Psychos, Dolly Parton and Die Antwoord, they set out to have as much fun as possible.
Their second EP, Big Attraction, was released in February 2017, kicking off a stellar year for these young punks. A growing buzz around their blistering live show made the band a hot tip at Bigsound in Brisbane, while the band was added to festival line-ups including Meredith and CherryRock17. The band sold out their first headline show at the Bendigo Hotel in September, and were invited to join the Cosmic Psychos on their November/December ‘17 tour. A stadium show awaits in January ’18 with some unknown band, Foo-something or other.
With a ton of heat behind them, a debut album due mid-2018, Amyl and the Sniffers are barely off the leash.
