It's party time! Anty Horgan and Craig Selak have been raising hell since their school days, flying through puerile teenage bands and dreaming of the big time. They began the journey by borrowing the name of a pop superstar, but it's as The Bennies that they've carved their niche as one of the most exciting and fun-loving live bands this great southern land has to offer. With a half-hour between dinner and tearing Melbourne's Corner Hotel a new one, the band's bass-ing, singing and synth-ing half talked through a brief history of their love of music and a highlight reel of their remarkable rise over the past few years.

The Bennies' new single, "Party Machine," is available now via Poison City Records: https://poisoncityrecords.bandcamp.com/album/party-machine-single

The band's third studio album is due for release in the first quarter of 2016.

The Bennies are currently on their final Australian tour for the year alongside The Hard Aches and Wet Pensioner.

Across over ten years of going to shows, I've met countless fascinating people that are joined together by the fact I love their music. This is a medium in which I look to find out the bigger picture, the extended story and the journey that brought them to where they are. No genre or topic is off limits. I'm David James Young - and all my friends are in bar bands.
