The Jungle Giants
The Jungle Giants are an up-and-coming four-piece Australian band from Brisbane, Queensland, making their mark in the indie rock scene. Sam Hales, Cesira Aitken, Andrew Dooris, and Keelan Bijker are bringing their Tuss Tour downunder after a stint at South by South West Festival in Texas, USA.
“We’re independent so we don’t have a particular label telling us what to do. I have a studio at home, and I just play around with different sounds,” lead singer Hales says.
With the freedom of playing whatever they want comes a fresh and vibrant album, Learn To Exist – it was well received last year with popular songs She’s a riot and Mr Polite.
Already working on their next album while touring, The Jungle Giants are ready to take on an international crowd. “I really want to play a world tour one day, to travel while writing new records and build my own studio, a really nice one,” says Hales.
“You can expect a further exploration of what we can do. We aim to make it something that will really impress us, as well as the people who listen to our music. We will challenge ourselves, explore a variety of flavours and harmonies, and do something particularly different,” he says. (RM)
