Melbourne rockers The Vendettas release their latest offering on the world, their latest single ‘Rats on the Wheel’ through Golden Robot Records on March 2.
The Vendettas are a guitar driven, straight up rock band from Melbourne, Australia. Fronted by the hard-rock swagger and soulful vocals of Steve Redden, combined with the crunchy, almost ‘Brit rock like’ guitar sound of Jared Mattern, all held together by the solidly monstrous rhythm section of James Rogers on Bass and Rick Van Der Meer on Drums, the band has been a part of Melbourne’s rock scene for more than 10 years, mastering their craft to every beer soaked wall and sticky floor the town has to offer.
In recent times, the boys spent almost a year writing vigorously and tightening the ‘pre-prod’ screws, before hitting the studio late in 2018 to record their third album. These studio sessions were all captured live and raw, with one main objective in mind… to produce a piece of audio that represents what the band sounds like in the flesh, with all dials cranked to 11.
In 2019, The Vendettas went from strength to strength, securing their first international support with Danko Jones (Canada), receiving regular airplay on PBS FM & Triple MMM (Hard N Heavy) all the while continuing to build their presence in the local scene, doing what they love, belting out rock n roll, the way it should be!
With the release of a Limited Edition 7” single “Rats on the Wheel” via Rue Morgue Records, and their third album set for release in 2020 through Golden Robot Records, The Vendettas are poised and ready to attack the ears of all you rock fiends, near and far – watch this space.
