Young punks Skaters are currently in Australia as part of Splendour In The Grass. The New York City quartet Skaters’ music, ethos, and attitude are remarkably entrenched in the late nights, eclectic characters, and punk roots of their hometown, adopting it as their muse and infusing their sound with the grit and energy of the kind of post-punk and new wave scenes that thrived in the city decades earlier.

Their first EP, Schemers, arrived in 2012, and the band followed it up by heading to the famed Electric Lady Studios to begin work on their first full-length, Manhattan, which appeared earlier in 2014 and has already been featured as a triple j album of the week.

Skaters will play Melbourne’s Corner Hotel this Saturday 26th July, and to celebrate we’re giving lucky readers the chance to win a double pass. Enter your details blow to win!
