    About

    The Moving Targets are a Darwin-based guitar pop band and have been dodging bullets since their inception. The end of 2009 saw the release of their debut ep "A Sitting Duck" produced by LA based Producer Mitch Kenny (Missy Higgins/Xavier Rudd). They have been described as "the closest the Northern Territory has to a supergroup" (Megan Spencer, ex-JJJ/MusicNT) in being a marriage of ex and current members from numerous Darwin bands ranging as far flung as the Leah Flanagan Band to eMDee. Their debut release demonstrates this diversity from the foot-stomping/hand clapping Thought I knew him well feat. Liz Stringer ("A great example of country-rock at its best" - Dom Alessio, JJJ), to the delicate Petrol on Fire complete with strings and saw. The Moving Targets perform unpretentious brand pop, that is just as likely to make you take notice, as it is make you drink, move, or be moved.
