2013 marked a busy time for Melbourne five piece The Trotskies. They played a bunch of gigs, released and launched their self-titled EP in October to a good amount of media fanfare and radio airplay, with reviews praising them as ‘‘….you can’t help but scream and lose your breath when those gorgeous guitars kick in.’ (Dwarf website). And on Saturday 18th January they officially launch the third single Running they have lifted from the EP at The Workers Club with special guests Oscar Galt and Magic America.
The four track EP displays that this five piece are clearly cleverly competent musicians who compose solid post-punk pop tunes in an earnest and thoughtful manner and have an economic take on their craft. Above all, they sound fresh and full of energy.
Make sure you are part of the party as The Trotskies launch their their third single Running from their self-titled EP at The Workers Club on Saturday 18th January with Oscar Galt and Magic America supporting. Entry is $10, doors at 8.30pm.
