Repeat Offender

Repeat Offender formed in August 03 and since then have steadily worked at destroying all they deem evil, from Australian Idol to the Crazy Frog. Never will you see such energy, musicianship, interpretive dance (!) and blatant disregard for personal safety in one exciting stage show. As an independent and self managed band, REPEAT OFFENDER built a name for themselves by playing over 120 shows in less than two years on the SE QLD music circuit ranging from small pub gigs, to a sold out Taste Of Chaos show at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. As winners of both the 2004 Coca Cola / Dreamworld ROCKSTAR competition and the 2005 QLD rock awards, these 5 young men from Brisbane, Australia are a truly unique bunch to witness live. Ryan Wilson (Lead Vocals) Steven Childs (Rhythm Guitar/Vocals) Joel Arnold (Lead Guitar) Dane Karolak (Drums) Matt Newton (Bass Guitar) The band pride themselves on a dynamic live show, something Matt Newton believes a lot of their contemporaries are lacking. "We all hate going to see a show where the whole band just stand there and look bored," he says. "There's nothing more satisfying than not being able to move the day after a show. I think a big thing a lot of local bands are missing is a good frontman/woman, and we are fortunate enough to have two, so that makes life a whole lot more entertaining." REPEAT OFFENDER have recently signed to Modern Music / Sony BMG and their debut EP "To a modern love..." will be available nationally from May 8th 2006.
