Last Quokka

**Last Quokka** is a fiery Australian punk band hailing from Perth, known for their raw, politically charged anthems and unapologetic DIY ethos. Formed in 2019, the band features Nick O’Donnell (vocals), Dan McKay (guitar), legendary drummer James Baker (The Scientists, Hoodoo Gurus), and Brett Keys (bass), blending old-school punk energy with sharp, socially conscious lyrics. Their sound—a chaotic mix of garage rock and surf-punk—serves as a megaphone for issues like economic inequality, environmental collapse, and corporate greed, as heard in tracks like “Eat the Rich” and “Cost Of Living.”

With releases like *Take the Fight to the Bastards* and *Save Our Pubs*, Last Quokka has become a staple in Australia’s underground scene, rallying fans with their raucous live shows and grassroots authenticity. Their 2023 album *Colony* cements their reputation as agitators unafraid to tackle systemic rot, all while keeping the mosh pits spinning. Think of them as your loudest, most opinionative mates at the pub—if your mates also wrote punk bangers about saving the world.
