Down And Out have become one of Tarndanya/Adelaide’s most genre-defiant forces, creating music that fuses pop/punk, rock, EDM, and dance. Formed in late 2019, they’ve since built a reputation for reinvention, continuously evolving across three distinct EPs.
Notably, each release highlights their refusal to repeat the past, ensuring every track brings fresh intensity and direction. With their fourth EP scheduled for production in April 2025, anticipation surges across Australia’s alternative scene.
Fans and critics alike admire their bold shifts in sound, while “Sunk Cost Fallacy” exemplifies Down And Out’s fearless creativity and relentless push into unexplored musical territory.
Beyond their adventurous sonic landscape, Down And Out maintain an unmatched work ethic through consistent releases and a thriving national touring schedule. Over the past three years, they’ve dropped new tracks every 2–3 months and toured Australia seven times since May 2023.
They also proudly collaborate with top-tier industry talent, including acclaimed producer Stevie Knight, who’s worked with Stand Atlantic and RedHook. Their visual direction remains equally compelling, thanks to creative partnerships with directors like Colin Jeffs and Kim Quint. Moreover, their custom merchandise—designed by Make North and Dead Creepy—further solidifies their unique identity in Australia’s thriving alt scene.
Now, as 2025 unfolds, Down And Out prepare for yet another defining chapter in their already impressive journey. Determined to stay prolific and present, they’ve announced plans for more music releases and a fresh run of national live shows.
Their ability to balance sonic reinvention with relentless momentum cements their place as one of the country’s most exciting and dynamic acts. Every EP marks a turning point, keeping audiences guessing and hungry for what’s next. If their past is any indicator, 2025 will be louder, bolder, and even more unapologetically Down And Out.
