Event Details

One of Australia’s most loved and influential bands, the Hard-Ons are this year celebrating 40 years of punk rocking in public. In doing so they will embark on a 40th anniversary tour of Australia this October and November, along with the release of new music, starting with the fast-out-the-gate new single "Buzz Buzz Buzz", out now on Cheersquad Records and Tapes, plus the exciting announcement of a new feature length documentary film, The Most Australian Band Ever, which will premiere October 16 at Sydney's SXSW festival.

In their original incarnation, the Hard-Ons shared bills with the likes of the Ramones and Nirvana and appeared on numerous Big Days Out. They scored a never-bettered 17 consecutive number 1s on the Australian independent charts and in 1989 were the only Australian band still based in Australia to hit the top 5 in the NME charts. In 2021, the core pair of Ray and Blackie and "new" drummer Murray found themselves a new front person in the form of longtime fanboy, Tim Rogers of You Am I.

Over the years, the Hard-Ons have won the vocal support of artists like Dave Grohl, AC/DC's Malcolm Young and Jello Biafra amongst countless others. They’ve influenced not only subsequent generations of punk bands but a wide-ranging groundswell of Australian alternative artists – from You Am I to Spiderbait to Silverchair to Regurgitator to Magic Dirt to Powderfinger to the Dirty Three to The Chats – each of whom have been inspired by the Hard-Ons’ energy, free spirit and uncompromising dedication.
