About
Aussie Thunder is a rock band for hire in Eltham, VIC.
AC/DC, the Angels, Rose Tattoo, Noiseworks, Jimmy Barnes, INXS, Divinyls, Dragon. Aussie Thunder works the classic Australian hard rock songbook the way it should be played: loud, live and one hit straight into the next. The Melbourne five piece arrives with a full PA, a light show and its own production, or can plug into a house system where one exists. A usual night runs three 50 minute sets, built on years of pub, club, festival and private gigs across metro and regional Victoria. Give them roughly six metres by four and a half to set up in, plus a couple of hours before doors, and the dance floor tends to look after itself.
Watch
The show
Loud, and unapologetic about it. Aussie Thunder bring a full production of classic Australian hard rock and run three sets of 50 minutes, which is enough to get a dance floor going and keep it there. Years of pubs, clubs, festivals and private functions sit behind the way they pace a night, and it shows in when they choose to drop the big ones. This is a five piece playing the songbook properly rather than politely.
On the day
Five musicians need roughly six metres across and four and a half deep. Aussie Thunder arrive two hours ahead of the start and use that window for setup and a sound check, so factor that into your venue access. They travel with their own PA and lighting rig and their full production, though they're happy to run through a house PA where the venue has one worth using.
