Five eager Australians are growing impatient: Where is the Rock? –
Dead City Ruins send a “Shockwave“ our way
Dead City Ruins are staying hungry. In 2015, the Australians sold their belongings and went all-in when it comes to Rock ’n’ Roll. Tirelessly touring the planet, the five-some has managed to capture the hearts of its audience gig by gig – much like Rival Sons, Monster Truck, and similar trailblazers of their generation have. They also share a list of influences with these acts, namely Deep Purple, Guns N’ Roses, Zeppelin. Their goal: bring Rock ’n’ Roll back to the people. What these guys make on the road, they re-invest into their rough living conditions as well as their upcoming album. Now, “Shockwave“ is finally ready and marks the band’s fourth record. For that to happen, everything had to change!
There’s Steve Welsh, for example, as the newly appointed microphone man. “Steve is out there giving our typical sound a fresh new edge, which is pretty exciting“, guitarist Sean Blanchard muses.
Welsh himself elaborates: “These guys have given me the warmest welcome; I couldn’t have wished for better bandmates. They took me in and let me be part of something they had been building for such a long time, all the while giving me everything I need.“
