The Cribs have landed back on our shores to celebrate the band’s 10 year anniversary with a series of headline shows along the east coast.
Surviving 10 years as a band with a career that spans five album releases, extensive touring, major festival appearances, and a strong DIY aesthetic and approach to music, the UK’s The Cribs – twin brothers Ryan and Gary Jarman and younger brother Ross – are celebrating this milestone with a return visit to Australia.
Defined by their cynicism about the mainstream, and once described by the NME as “Your new favourite bands, new favourite band”, The Cribs’ colourful history has included a band line-up that boasted Johnny Marr of The Smiths/Modest Mouse. They have played with Foo Fighters, The Strokes, Arctic Monkeys, Franz Ferdinand and Death Cab For Cutie as well as playing some of the world’s most prestigous festivals including Glastonbury, Lollapalooza, Fuji Rock and Reading Festival.
The band have had 7 consecutive UK Top 40 hits, including ‘Hey Scenesters’ and ‘Our Bovine Public’, and in 2012, the bands 10th anniversary year, they were honored with the ‘Spirit of Independence’ award at the annual Q Awards.
Now back and ready to rock you can catch them on the following dates:
