sleepazoid are an alt-rock quintet comprising of vocalist and guitarist Nette France, bassist Josef Pabis, drummer Luca Soprano, and dual guitarists’ George Inglis and Jim Duong. Fusing the raw energy of grunge, the atmospheric depth of shoegaze, and the driving rhythms of post punk, the collective offer a distinct and assured sound. The Naarm-based five-piece are now unveiling a new chapter, marked by the release of their moody end-of-the-night slowburn ‘3AM’. The single arrives ahead of the band’s upcoming showcases at BIGSOUND this September, and will be launched with two headline shows in Melbourne and Sydney next month. sleepazoid will be supported by GUSH on all shows, local supports TBA.
