The best adventures often begin in the middle of the night - and this also applies to Rum Jungle. For the four Australians, it all started at three in the morning at a party that ultimately resulted in a successful band with international tours. Singer Benny McIntyre was sitting on a balcony when he met guitarist Josh Giles and bassist Michael Kolmajer. The spontaneous conversation led to regular jam sessions, during which the first songs of their own were soon written. To record this in the studio, all that was missing was a drummer: Benny found him in his 15-year-old colleague Frazer McDonald, with whom he worked in a burger joint - and the band was complete. Benny quickly took the name “Rum Jungle” from his father’s musical past, who had once played in a band of the same name. Their music bears the hallmarks of their hometown of Newcastle - sunny days and long beaches characterize their mix of surf rock and alt-pop, which captures the feeling of an endless summer. With their first two EPs “Crazy Days” (2017) and “Sun & Smoke” (2018), Rum Jungle quickly gained a loyal fan base. Instead of rushing to release a debut album, they patiently refined their sound, which can be heard on the EPs “Everything is Easy” (2022) and “Hold Me in the Water” (2023). The patience paid off: their debut album “Recency Bias” was released in February, which perfectly captures the essence of Rum Jungle – nostalgia, youthful chaos, indie sleaze and beach parties. The title alludes to a well-known phenomenon: the band loves every new song more than the older ones - the so-called recency bias. The result is a carefree, energetic work that could also be the soundtrack to a coming-of-age film - and completely deservedly landed in the top 10 of the Australian charts. Today, Rum Jungle no longer play at backyard parties, but on large international stages - not least because of their electrifying live performances. They are coming to Germany in February – three exclusive concerts are coming up. If you want to treat yourself to a piece of summer in music form in the middle of winter, you should secure your tickets quickly.
