The Datsuns, New Zealand’s most internationally applauded rock ‘n’ roll band, and are launching their current album ‘Death Rattle Boogie’ in Australia during December.
2002 saw The Datsuns catapulted into the international music scene with the release of their debut record and being hailed by the British press as “the future of rock”. Being plastered on the cover of one of the world’s biggest music publications was more than the band were ever expecting. The decade since has seen The Datsuns produce another three studio albums, tour the world many times and play some of the biggest music festivals on the planet.
Fast forward to 2012 and The Datsuns are ready to launch the album they are most proud of to date. Recorded in Sweden at lead singer Dolf De Borst’s Gutterview studios and at Neil Finn’s Roundhead studios in Auckland, Death Rattle Boogie took shape under the watchful hand of Nicke Andersson, ex-member of Swedish hard-rockers, The Hellacopters.
They hit the east coast of Australia on the following dates and we have a double pass and copy of the album to give away for their Brisbane, Toowoomba, Gold Coast, Sydney and Ballarat shows. Melbourne Fans the shows at The Espy front bar are free entry! Please note all shows are 18+.
