The Chevelles, Western Australia’s longest serving Garage Surf Punk specialists are celebrating their 35th Anniversary with the wild new single, CAVEMAN, that is today via Wicked Cool Records. With the new single and confirmed tour of Spain in December, The Chevelles are for the moment taking the opportunity to celebrate and reflect on a lifelong adventure that is rolling into the future as strong as ever. Born in the summer of ’89-’90, The Chevelles came together from the ashes of some of Perth’s best bands of that era, including The Kryptonics, The Stems, The Freuds and The Diehards. What followed was a Rock ‘n Roll roadtrip of over three decades, with five albums and 23 releases culminating in 16 overseas tours through parts of Europe, South America and the US. 

“Seneca said life is long if you use it, and Rock ‘n Roll has made mine full. The gravity of hanging out, creating, and playing music with my best mates around the world for 35 years is not lost on me. The heartbreaks and the joys of our journey have become the stories, the stories became the lyrics, the lyrics became the songs, and in the end, after over 1200 live shows, they became the sweat stains on a ’69 Telecaster. The rock ‘n’ roll motorcycle gang ride continues. There is something quite glorious in tearing up a stage with voltage and volume and melody that connects everyone in an almost primal way, It’s addictive! We are all, still after 35 years, just rock’n’roll love junkies.” (Duane Smith)
