Hailing from sandy Newcastle, Maids – one of this country’s finest and heaviest exponents of quirky guitar driven power pop are back with a ridiculously fun new single titled ‘Girl Power’.
There aren’t too many bands you could say manage to combine elements of metal, doom, ’60s rock with Katy Perry inspired melodies, but Maids do it, and do it well.
With a critically acclaimed EP and a string of singles behind them, Maids are showing no signs of fatigue. Having already supported the likes of DZ Deathrays, British India, Kingswood, King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard, it’s clear the guys know how to bring it live.
Written, recorded and mixed by drummer/lead vocalist Sean Cook, ‘Girl Power’ is a tongue in cheek statement, railing against misogyny in pop culture.
To celebrate the release of the single, the band are also excited to announce they will be touring the east coast with shows in Melbourne, Sydney, Gold Coast, Brisbane and Newcastle. Check out the date and new track below. For more info visit the band’s Facebook page.
