BIO:
Who are The Giveaways? We're The freakin' Giveaways! Fast, energetic indie rockers from Adelaide who will make you dance, sweat and sing until your lungs give in.
The band formed in mid 2006 with founding members Josh Pullinen and James Erne. Harrison saw such rare talent in these two, that he just had to put down his guitar and learn how to pluck the shit out of a bass... And then Gunny came along and was all like, “Hey guys, I'm gonna be in your band now, deal with it!” So they dealt with it, and they all lived happily ever after.
Since then they have been tearing roofs off such venues as The Ed Castle, The Austral, Crown and Anchor, Electric Light Hotel, Jade Monkey and The Gov.
“...In essense think of them as an exceptionally proficient and polished mash-up between The Kooks (most notably), the Arctic Monkeys, The Libertines and The Strokes. With an overall vibe that equal measures ridiculously and thrashingly upbeat, obnoxiously jubilant, rife with 60's Beatlemania (in both loose frenetic playing style and exploding energy) and catchy as all fuck.” - Spoz
Thanks Spoz... Now get down and boogie!
