Forging unpredictable grooves, jagged riffs and tasty hooks, Aussie rockers HAMMERS are bringing their hard-hitting live show to New Zealand and Japan for the very first time this October/November. The Gold Coast quintet have carved out a name for themselves as one of the hardest working bands on the circuit, and a reputation as a must-see live act on the Aussie scene.
2024 has proven both productive and super busy for the beloved Gold Coast noise-makers. Following the release of Top Fun, the lead single from their forthcoming debut full length, they also announced the addition of a fifth member in local heavy music mainstay, Dario Lagana (ex-HELM, Snake Mountain); as well as a string of tour dates in support of their Weekender Bender campaign, indefinitely targeting as many regional Australian towns as possible. Amid all of this, they still manage to tear down the studio walls, ploughing through the completion of the aforementioned full length album, set to burn early 2025.
Now, in very exciting news, we finally see the boys skip the pond, setting out to introduce their insanely infectious live show to international waters. This October/November, HAMMERS will visit New Zealand & Japan for a string of 8 shows across two countries, over two weeks. These plans have been on the radar for the boys since early 2020, previously squashed by the filthy wheeze of the ol’ spicy cough. Now, returning with an absolute vengeance, our favourite local tools could not be happier at the prospect.
