Just announced! Aussie punks Dune Rats will perform a one off UK headline show this summer at Bootleg!
2023 saw Dune Rats tour the world. From February of that year the band played to packed rooms throughout the US, Canada, Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, Belgium, France, South Africa, Ireland, over 20 shows in the UK where they made two visits.
Back in Australia Dunies played a swag of headline and festival plays around the country including a huge Splendour In The Grass set where they played their hugely successful Triple J Like A Version cover of The Angels – Am I Even Gonna See Your Face Again.
Somehow in between all of this, Danny, BC and Brett knuckled down to write some new songs for the follow up to the #1 ARIA nominated ‘Real Rare Whale’ album. First single ‘Be Like You’ hit the runway in November, with new single ‘Solar Eyes’ right around the corner.
More songs and shows in the pipes for 2024, which is just how Dunies like it.
“By the time the record comes to a close with If This Is The End it almost feels as though you’re returning from a day of partying on the beach after drunkenly giggling with friends – your skin is sun-kissed, your hair salty from the ocean’s waves and your head is full of a euphoric, smile-induced headache. It’s brilliant fun.
Verdict: 4/5” – Kerrang
“In what feels like their fastest, funnest and punniest Dune Rats album yet, the slew of party-starting bangers, including single “What A Memorable Night”, are clear dance-floor fillers. 4/5 Stars” – Rolling Stone
