So Where To Today?

Amsterdam

What: 1-800-Mikey @ EKKO

When: Thursday September 11 19:30

Fuzz-heavy punk full of wonky melodies, DIY drums, and compact, high-energy tracks GEE TEE started as the bedroom project of Kel, somewhere on the sunny Gold Coast of Australia. What began as tinkering with solo tunes in a tiny room quickly grew into an irresistible mix of fuzz, energy, and humor. Gee Tee’s sound is anything but ordinary: lo-fi to the core, with wobbly synths, blown-out guitars, and hooks that are just as catchy as they are chaotic. Think somewhere between Geza X, Dow Jones and the Industrials, and Scientific Americans – raw punk with a quirky edge that makes you laugh while you lose your mind.

1-800-MIKEY is the lo-fi bedroom garage punk project of Michael Barker from Eora/Sydney. You might also know him from the live line-ups of R.M.F.C. and Gee Tee, but solo Mikey brings something entirely his own: sunny, scrappy punk with a heavy dose of charm. His latest record Plushy is, as he puts it, “for all the cuties.” Expect hyper-catchy hooks, DIY vibes, and a warm wink.

Support: Spurn Born out of a DIY punk fest in the depths of Utrecht, Spurn made their mark in 2024 with ridiculous synth riffs, lightning-fast drums, and (way too) loud guitars. Short, catchy, and dumb, but definitely not boring.
