The Strypes Named Among Splendour Sideshow Acts

Sydney, Melbourne each to be treated to an evening with Irish wunderkinds

The Strypes Profile

Irish adolescent prodigies The Strypes - all of whom are under 18, by the way - are set to boldly go where no underager is supposed to go with a pair of Splendour In The Grass-related sideshows when they're in Australia for the festival.

The four-piece released their debut full-length, Snapshot, in September last year, and the runaway train of their ascent in and around their home country is impressive, to say the least, as the boys are currently making their way around Europe before they head to Fuji Rock Festival and consequently their Australian shows and beyond.

The Strypes play Melbourne's Northcote Social Club on Tuesday, July 22, and Sydney's Newtown Social Club on Wednesday, July 23.
