Bio history
Inbetween paying the bills i muck about with Reason
Writing awesome songs that will change the world.
Everyone knows a Dave. He’s the friendly larrikin from high school. The mate that gets everyone home safely after a big night. The postie that’s always up for a chat. The old bean who you see at the beach every day. Dave the band are a raucous three-piece from Newcastle. dave the band's debut, Steve Albini recorded album 'Slob Stories' is out now! ~ yoch!
"Dave are sitting on the rustbelt between R.E.M. and the C-86; wide guitar strums with eminently literate lyrics... The production on this thing is perfect." - Life is noise “Like a rough Perth version British post-punk. This is fucking great and I'll fight anyone who says otherwise.” - Dave Ruby Howe (Triple J) "They forge the sort of thoroughly satisfying and stimulating pop songs that remind you why words like “hook,” “verse,” “double chorus” and “bridge” are not necessarily evil...” - Cool Perth Nights
