Description
Skegss are an Australian 3 piece powerhouse originally from Byron Bay
formed in 2013.
Combining surf , garage, slacker elements to create their dynamic sound,
Benny Reed ( Guitar and vocals ) Toby Cregan ( Bass and vocals ) and
Jonny Lani ( Drums ) work effortlessly to provide melody, simplicity and
energy into a few short minutes.
Skegss have released several extended plays and their debut full length,
My Own Mess,
which hit the national Australian charts at number 2.
The bands first single release was back in 2014 ( L.S.D ) and gained
favourable reviews around the country. Touring commenced shortly after
around Australia and even managed to take the
band overseas to the United States for shows in New York and Los
Angeles.
Shortly after a series of releases between 2015 and 2017 gained the band
attention not only around the country
but around the world.
Sold out UK and US tours ensued as Skegss reputation only gained higher
praise. Their live shows are sweaty, singalong dance parties for all ages,
showing how easily the band connects with
all walks of life.
With over 9 million views on YouTube, 490k listeners on Spotify and
almost 150k followers collectively on Facebook and Instagram, it goes to
show how the bands ability to craft songs that resonate with their listeners
has projected them to not
only best loved live and festival band but also recorded favourites.
