Plus Tone Deaf DJ’s breaking out the rock n’ roll.
Tone Deaf are back, back again with another August party, which will make you forget the cold and come celebrate the weekend with Redcoats, The Sinking Teeth and Child.
Everything is supersize in Redcoat’s world: epic drums and vocals, and a guitar and bass synergy that throbs, chops and drones. “It’s an honest brand of rock’n’roll” States singer Emilio Mercuri. The band’s individuality made them an obvious support for fellow heavyweight acts such as Grinspoon, Pap Vs Pretty, Calling All Cars and Karnivool. Their debut, self-titled EP was recorded with Rob Long in 2011 and mixed and mastered by Lindsey Gravina. It’s first single, ‘Dreamshaker’, climbed to #76 in Triple J’s Hottest 100 poll, cementing the band’s status as one to watch.
Something of a Redcoats trademark is using droning guitars as a base over which hypnotic rhythms loop the listener in. On stage, it’s as though the four have a shared consciousness, all plugged into the same main. The Redcoats experience transcends modern genre-labeling; instead tapping into the roots of modern rock, back when experimentation was boundless. They take this sense of wonder and pull the listener into a vortex of gentle transfixion or ritualised chaos. Whatever it is, it’s a feeling Redcoats have bottled and shaken up.
Tone Deaf are brining you a one off party with Redcoats, The Sinking Teeth and Child on Saturday 31st August at Ding Dong Lounge.
