THE RAMSHACKLE ARMY as they shall hence forth be known have been on the march, providing Celt infused Punk Rock sustenance to thirsty audiences across Melbourne and Sydney since first hitting the stage mid-2010. Armed with more 4 stringed instruments than 6, the RSA have come to provide an outlet for all those drunken bums who wish nothing more than to sing loud with mates. Music designed to bring listeners out of the cold, shout “whoa whoa!” to the heavens and yell at the guy next to them that “it’s your round!” From Melbourne, Australia, the RSA have been playing extensively through the pub scene to build a fearsome reputation in a short time through tireless promotion, and energetic live show and a dedication to creating brand recognition. While still the “new kids” on the scene the RSA continue to grow their impressive resume which includes, but not limited to, venues such as: • The Hi Fi Bar • The Esplanade Hotel (Gershwin and Front Bar) • The Prince Of Wales for St Kilda Festival • The Victoria Hotel, Brunswick for Sydney Rd Festival • The Dan O’Connell for St Patrick’s Day Festivities • The Arthouse (RIP) • The Annandale for Blood Sweat & Beers Festival (Syd) • The Harp for Renegades Revolution (Syd) • Cherry Bar • The Workers Club, Fitzroy • The Royal Derby month long Residency • The Victoria Hotel Brunswick month long residency • Freeza All Age shows • 24 hour Relay For Life – Cancer Council Charity Event Taking great pleasure in sharing the stage with many of the country’s finest proponents of punk, rock, folk punk, ska and rockabilly, the RSA are delighted to play to a wide and diverse audience without the restriction of “pigeonholing” or scene classifications. The Ramshackle Army have recently added to their arsenal with their debut Independent EP LIFE LESSONS & DRUNKEN SESSIONS ready to invade the market May 2011. Recorded at 3 Phase in Brunswick, VIC by Sam Johnson (Mindsnare, Toe to Toe, A Death in The Family, House Vs Hurricane) and mastered at Blasting Room, Fort Collins, Colorado by Jason Livermore (Rise Against, A Wilhelm Scream), Life Lessons & Drunken Sessions is the first attempt at transferring the live energy of an RSA show to recorded format and will surely have the audience in the mood for a drunken singalong. The future for the Ramshackle Army includes a push further into other Australian capital cities, growing a fan base through relentless playing and promotion, and using the dedicated online Celt punk community to begin growing the brand internationally. With so much on the horizon the noises made by the RSA are only growing louder. Now enough with the ranting… I’m pretty sure it’s your round. Read more on Last.fm.
