Hailing from Melbourne but comprising English brothers and a Western Australian, rock power-trio Elcaset overcame huge distances and sibling rivalry to create a signature melodic-yet-gritty sound invoking the grunge-led riffs of of Rival Schools, pithy vocal hooks of Biffy Clyro and powerpop cadence of Jimmy Eat World.

And although the band only formed in early 2012, Elcaset's members are no rookies. As part of Failsafe, one was snapped up by Deck Cheese Records (UK home of The Living End and Jackson United) while 14,000 kms away, another cut his teeth in bands alongside Adam Spark (Birds of Tokyo) before touring with Gyroscope, Trial Kennedy & Calling All Cars in Perth’s Love You Not.

Those early projects instilled a rock’n’roll DIY spirit which carried through to Elcaset’s beginnings and beyond, with the new band’s hard work paying off as a headline slot at St Kilda’s legendary Espy Front Bar. Not bad for a first ever show.

Further headline gigs followed at other well-known Melbourne venues before the band headed to Oaklands Studios to record their debut single, Losing Ground. With the single released 8th September 2012, Elcaset will continue hitting the road in search of as many willing ears as they can hurl their trademark honey-on-gravel sound at.

Dirty, rocky and dancy song. Great energy when you see them live too.
