Sydney "Thrust-Core" pioneers, Rick Dangerous and the Silkie Bantams, have had a busy 2016, ruffling feathers and rocking stages across the land. Fresh off the back of their second EP 'Thrust Machine', the dazzling four-piece have been busy carving a name for themselves, as a 'must-see' live act, by seamlessly blending punk-rock, metal grooves, sexy moves and comedy. The band are suiting up in preparation for a headline tour this Feb/March, dubiously titled 'Thrust Fury', which will see them hit venues in NSW, QLD, VIC, and for the first time - South Australia.

The Bantams will be promoting their latest single release 'Powdered Sugar', a blistering track, dedicated to Rick's hedonistic lifestyle, and all those who like to party. Never one to mince his words, Ricks lyrics on 'Powdered Sugar' are brutally honest (and incriminating), and may just end up being the new summer-time anthem for bender kids everywhere. Join the party, and catch Rick D and his Silkie B's when they roll through a town near you in Feb/March next year.

"With highly-danceable groove-metal riffage, some of the most clever and hilarious lyrics you've heard this century, and a bespectacled tea-sipping frontman who pelvic-thrusts like a sexual maths teacher whilst screaming like a deranged psychopath, Rick Dangerous & the Silkie Bantams have one of the most captivating and entertaining live shows in Australia right now" - MusicFeeds.com.au
