Press release:

Following the release of their debut album TREK and a string of sold-out shows across Sydney (Eora), Brisbane (Meanjin), and Melbourne (Naarm), Sydney post-punk trio Shady Nasty announce their debut tour in Aotearoa/New Zealand this September. A world bound by modding cars, immigrant heritage and digital obsessions, Kevin Stathis, Haydn Green and Luca Watson, together play a left-field breed of punk that recalibrates their formal training to its most uncustomary extremes. Wherever they play and no matter the room size, devout adherents clammer to propel a heaving mosh. Experience TREK live as Shady Nasty debut the record with an all-new live show, with special guests to be announced.
