The Grogans
Since their 2019 debut album, “Just What You Want”, The Grogans have cultivated their style in a fairly straightforward manner and have managed to justify the meaning of their album title. Today, the trio from Melbourne are known as a safe bet for contemporary indie rock that has found a home somewhere between the rehearsal room in the garage and surfer dreams on the beach. But by no stretch of the imagination can the three be accused of being complacent. Quite the contrary: In just four years, they have released four albums plus several EPs and singles, played concerts all over Australia, and collected award nominations that were long overdue. Blues and psychedelic pop, Tame Impala and the Beatles come together to create the ideal soundtrack for a life spent trying to escape the dusty Outback – or for everyone who has already done so. The band likes to play with ambiguities but remains very consistent when it comes to the quality of their songs. Fans – and anyone who wants to become a fan – can see for themselves in September.
