The Spindrift Saga are an Australian band from the South Coast of NSW renowned for their explosive live shows, “catchy rhythms, bright licks” and huge alt funk-rock sound. Over the course of a decade, this act has gained a large underground following and accumulated a long list of achievements. Touring extensively, The Spindrift Saga has supported the likes of The Living End, Thirsty Merc, The Rubens, British India and many other music industry heavyweights. The band’s debut full-length record ‘Badnormous’ has received airplay around the country and earned The Spindrift Saga a unique place in the alternative rock scene. Since their album release, the band has released several new singles and are currently working on their highly anticipated sophomore album.
With comparisons being drawn to the music industry alternative heavyweights, “these lads have crafted a truly unique sound best described as electrifying”. The Spindrift Saga is a head-turning power trio with musical ‘chops’ to burn and cover an enormous diversity of styles in their performances. Influenced heavily by funk music, The Spindrift Saga welds this syncopated groove element seamlessly into their rock roots. The result is a 90s orientated sound that could be likened to acts such as The Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Living End, Soundgarden, Incubus and other industry frontrunners.
The band’s full-length album release ‘Badnormous’ dropped in 2016 and has since sold out of its first pressing in addition to extensive digital sales. The debut album follows up on The Spindrift Saga’s hugely successful 2014 single ‘Marvin’ and their 2011 EP release ‘300 Hours and Counting’. The band have recently shared three new singles “Batsh!t Bay”, “Smile” and “In and Out of Love” as they work towards their highly anticipated sophomore album. Each of these singles conveys new and exciting directions for The Spindrift Saga, delving deeper into their reggae, punk and grunge influences while retaining the funk-rock sound they are renowned for.

THE LATEST NEWS (from Facebook)
Just a couple of old school hippies at heart shooting a clip in paradise about our genuine disdain of a world where people can (and regularly do) ‘influence’ those around them with nothing more to offer than their ‘hotness’. Give us a bloody break. How did we land here?
We had an absolute ball working with Blacklist Productions and two incredible actors at one of the most beautiful beaches on the planet. We kept our shirts on because we didn’t wanna put old mate to shame!
We cannot wait for the world to hear this banger! On a serious note, turn off the rubbish and turn up the truth! - ‘Cause I don’t look as good as you do, without a filter or two’!
What a ripper time! 🙌
well done, great topic. dsn't matter if they don't ge irony the fans will love it.
Jay Seeney is a champion , can't wait to see it. Good on you Spindrift
So good 🙌👏👏
At least there’s one good looking among you rough’s lol 👍🍻🍻😎
Looks like a Batlow Poncho there 🤘
😂😂
Hell yeah!! 🔥🔥
Howdy ya pack of bloody legends! This weekend the first of our film clips from the up and coming album release is being shot. Pretty excited to have Jay Seeney from Blacklist Productions coming down from Syd to bring our ideas to life through the lens. Jay has more Tamworth Country Music Festival awards than we could list here, so we really are hoping he can make this little power rock trio look as appealing as Travis Collins in his latest clip - which Jay shot. Truth be told, we don’t feel
comfortable at all in front of the lens but we are rife with excitement none the less. We’ve already had an awesome offer from Hippie Sticks clothing in Bodalla to kit us out in some fully sick threads for the shoot! When Mick first penned this tune, after watching an Aussie Man Reviews clip on YouTube, we knew it was a song worthy of the whole shebang! I’m trying to think of more relevant people I can tag in this post to exploit every corner of the facey algorithm but I can’t think of anyone else worthy so I’ll just tag McDonald's in to see if they can deliver some cheeseburgers on site for the shoot Sunday. On a serious note, do it! Here’s a pic of my dog catching some rays, which now also allows me to tag in Staffie Owners on facebook for some extra traction - despite having absolutely nothing to do with anything at all I’ve spoken about. In an ill-guided attempt to get Insta famous and ‘influence’ people, I forgot to tag in the Kardashians Fans Club also - so I’ll do that now and sit back and stare at the like button for the next 3 hours to measure my worth as a human on planet earth! Good Knight Newcastle Knights - see what I did there!
Geez, I'm going to tell everyone that I was into Spindrift before they sold out
You guys have got this xx

We are genuinely looking forward to this one! There’s over 80 tickets sold already. While it is a farewell for the legends @ The Steampacket Hotel, it is open to the public. There’s some great music on offer and it’s cheap as chips!
