Dune Rats are an Australian punk rock band from Brisbane, Queensland, known for their raucous, high-energy anthems and a carefree, party-centric ethos that's as infectious as their music. The band, comprising Danny Beus on lead vocals and guitar, BC Michaels on drums, and Brett Jansch on bass, formed in 2011 and quickly made a name for themselves with their raw, garage band sound and unabashedly fun approach to rock music.

Their discography is a rollercoaster ride through catchy hooks, anthemic choruses, and relentless rhythms, capturing a youthful energy that appeals to a wide-ranging audience. Recent releases such as "Stupid Is As Stupid Does" featuring K.Flay, showcase their collaboration skills, while "Too Tough Terry" and "UP" maintain their signature sound—a blend of grunge-influenced guitar, pounding drums, and sing-along vocals. With their 2020 album, "Hurry Up And Wait," Dune Rats secured their stature in the punk rock scene, delivering lyrics that are equal parts introspection and boisterous shout-out-loud, and live performances that are notoriously rowdy and unforgettable. This trio continues to garner acclaim across Australia and beyond, riding waves of both sonic intensity and hazy, sun-soaked vibes that are emblematic of the Australian surf-punk culture.
