The Chevelles
The Chevelles are still a great big POWER POP band with loads of guitar action and heaps of soaring harmonies. From day one the critics have raved and the kids of the confection generation have danced and screamed... from their hometown of Perth right across to Europe, USA and South America.
In 1992 their debut Album “Kids Ain’t Hip” heralded the arrival of a new power pop force in Australia. With blistering guitars, soaring harmonies and a kick ass live show the band has blazed a significant musical trail over the last 14 years in many corners of the world.
The Chevelles have played over 1000 live shows, extensively toured 3 continents playing in small sweaty rooms and the massive outdoor stadium concerts. They have released over 20 recordings including 4 full length albums and 2 “best of” compilations. The Chevelles have sold over 80,000 records !
Over the past 14 years the band’s albums have featured prominently in many rock radio/TV playlists all across Europe, the US, Japan and Brazil. In France, "Gigantic" (1995) spent two months on the Rock 30 Radio Chart, entering at No 3. along side such luminaries as Sugar, Suede and Aerosmith.
“Rollerball Candy” followed in (1999) then “Girl God” (2003) has seen the bands popularity spread even further through the US and South America and sparked great interest in new markets such as Japan and the UK.
What The Chevelles have, is the ability to pen huge head shakin' power pop tunes that lesser bands would kill for. Add to that, a multitude of loyal pop fans, releases all over the world and a live show that can "maul just about anyone on a good night", and what you have is the band that is deemed "most likely to break out of the underground".
Early 2007 will see the release of The Chevelles’ killer 5th album, yet to be titled and a retrospective Rock and Roll DVD on their career. The Chevelles have always and will continue to BLAZE on through the landscape of the worlds musical wilderness. So start your engines, drop into the fast lane and Shake It Baby, Shake it!
