about
It was the summer of 1989-90. The twin peaks of revivalist 60’s psychedelia and post punk garage rock and roll had collided in Australia. Out of the West Australian surf crawled four long-haired boys determined to make their own special guitar noise and The Chevelles were born. Featuring members of The Stems, The Kryptonics, The Freuds and The Diehards the band has showcased a wave of blistering guitars, soaring harmonies, and head shaking tunes through their 20 year history. The Chevelles’ debut album “Kids Ain’t Hip” (1992) was released on Survival Records in Australia and Europe. The single “Show Me Your Love” received heavy rotation on JJJ in Australia and the band quickly developed an underground Australian and European following which was backed up by extensive touring in both regions. The Chevelles’ 2nd studio album “Gigantic” (1993) was released to rave reviews, and the band was featured prominently on many European rock radio/TV playlists. In France, “Gigantic” spent two months on the Rock 30 Radio Chart, entering at No 3. alongside such luminaries as Sugar, Suede, and Aerosmith. By the end of 1994 the band had blazed their way around Australia three times and charged across Europe with an electrifying 42 date tour. In 1997, The Chevelles released an exclusive Brazilian compilation titled “Delirium,” which cemented the band in the country’s surf market. Between 1999 and 2004, The Chevelles toured the region four times, landing tracks in three surf movies, and playing
