Peabody

The Australian Peabody is documented below with the American Peabody following. Starting in the mid-90s fresh out of high school, Sydney, Australia three-piece Peabody chose the road less traveled by mixing smart suits, Rickenbacker guitars, classic pop melodies and good old Australian pub sweat. The band recorded and self-released two EPs and also delivered literally hundreds of live shows before recording their debut album for Nonzero Records. Following the success of that album, Professional Againster, Peabody impressed again with the release of their second album, The New Violence.

Halal, How Are You?

Dirty garage pop music. Sounds like Big Star on Mescaline…The Birthday Party playing a set of Undertones covers. They also once played with No Age, it was rad.
Halal, How Are You? are Sydney’s answer to garage party music, where everyone can get together and rub sweat on each other whilst dancing to some real great music.
