“1-800-MIKEY’s late-night set lights up flagging bodies and brains, a jolt of high-voltage fuzz and bloop. While fiercely DIY, it’s still impressively well-built, a set as bonkers as it is danceable – instant, irresistible fun for those aiming at the sunrise.” Gallery Learn More Instagram

“For anyone who knows what Japanther means, 1-800-MIKEY are your new best friends. For everyone else, they’re also your new best friends – Ramones-level simplicity coupled with down-a-phone-line lo-fi goodness, the scruffy outer coating disguising smart and giddy songwriting of the highest order.” Gallery Learn More Instagram

I would like to acknowledge that the gigs that are pictured here, the stages they’re played on, the bars and venues they’re held in, and the good times they represent, are all held on lands that were never ceded by Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. I acknowledge these First Australians as the traditional custodians of the continent, whose cultures are among the oldest living cultures in human history. I pay respect to the Elders of the community and extend my recognition to their descendants.
