What’s your greatest source of inspiration for making music?
Loud guitar music from the 90's.
What can punters expect from a LOSER live show?

'Dope Calypso' by Violent Soho.

What was the last local gig you went to? How was it?
Pagan at Northcote Social Club. They were fucken awesome.
Tell us about the bands or people in the Melbourne music community that inspire you.

Plenty more music and plenty more shows.

If you’re after grunge with a memorable chorus well... You’ve come to the right artist profile. LOSER aren’t a band that rely solely on chunky riffs to get it done, this is a serious song.

It’s tempting to talk about the bands members but this is a track that speaks for itself. Reckon you’re gonna find an immediate audience for this one.
