The Prickly Grapes are an emerging young rock band proudly hailing from North-East Tasmania. These boys are known for their unapologetic style of 90's influenced punk, rock, and grunge, which is sure to get your attention. Since their first live show in August 2016, the boys have gigged consistently around Tassie from playing sweaty pub gigs in the north-east, to gaining support slots for the likes of Luca Brasi, WHARVES, Cosmic Kahuna and Melbourne rockers Batpiss. The Grapes are building speed with their high energy live shows and it doesn't look like slowing down. Having released their first two singles ‘Ask Me’ and ‘Childsplay’ to Triple J Unearthed the boys are now currently recording their debut EP at the Valley Sounds studio with Luke Triffitt, set for release in late 2017
