Tokyo Spares
Biography
Tokyo Spares hail from the mountains of Foxground and are now based in Sydney’s Inner West. They are female vocals that range from velvety purring to screaming banshee in less than a headshake, low-fi retro drum beats with hefty cymbal abuse and hard string hitting guitar hooks with stop-start riffs, distorted fuzz and swirling feedback.
Live, they are explosive; think B-52’s being humped by Yeah Yeah Yeah’s in an elevator, they’ve got pop, punk and rock tailored neatly to fit in your garage.
Tokyo Spares released their first EP 'Get Your Pop Out' in 2007 and followed with the release of 'The Dirty Single' in 09-with film clip and live track to boot. With a list of slick support slots, Triple J airplay, RAGE video rotation and their debut full-length album set for release, Tokyo Spares are an eyeful of attitude and an ear full of sass.
