Shandy

**Shandy** is a rowdy Brisbane-based duo serving up sweaty pub rock with a blue-collar twist. Comprised of mates Matt Hsu (vocals/guitar) and Tom Smith (drums), these high-vis heroes blend garage punk energy, boogie rhythms, and cheeky Aussie humor in tracks like "BRISBANE BOVVER BOOGIE" and "CHIP EATER FROM CABARITA." Their working-class anthems – think AC/DC meets The Chats with a XXXX Gold in hand – celebrate tradie culture, weekend mischief, and hometown pride through shout-along choruses and foot-stomping riffage.

Since bursting onto the scene with their unapologetically Ocker sound, Shandy’s become a staple at beer-soaked festivals and sticky carpet venues. Their 2023 banger "HARD YAKKA" and unhinged cover of "GIMME SOME LOVIN'" showcase their knack for turning construction site banter into moshpit fuel, complete with mullet-friendly guitar solos and lyrics about sausage sizzles. Whether they’re sniffing OMO in laundry-themed bops or throwing Santa a shoey in "CHRISTMAS TIME," these larrikins keep Aussie rock stupidly fun.
