Party Dozen

Sydney punks Party Dozen share new track "Ghost Rider" 'from Mad Rooter / Ghost Rider' 7" out Dec 5th via City Slang.

Party Dozen (Kirsty Tickle and Jonathan Boulet) are set to release their AA-single 7" 'Mad Rooter / Ghost Rider' on Dec 5th via City Slang. Today the band are sharing the second track from the record with a cover of Suicide's "Ghost Rider".

On the track, Party Dozen said 

“Suicide have always been one of our favourite bands. One time we saw Henry Rollins come out and sing Ghost Rider with them at the Barbican centre in London. No way. Way. We’ve been playing our version all year in our live show and we hope you turn this one up loud.”

Sydney-based duo Party Dozen, made up of saxophonist Kirsty Tickle and percussionist Jonathan Boulet, released their latest album Crime in Australia last year.

Since then, they've toured Europe with Amyl & The Sniffers, hit the US with Lambrini Girls, and returned to Europe for a six-week run of headline shows and festivals. Back home, they’ve played extensively across Australia and will be touring again with King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard. 

Crime In Australia charted at #7 in the Australian album charts and the band have racked up a string of accolades, including nominations for a JJJ Award for Best Video (Coup De Gronk), the AIR Award for Best Punk Album and the SXSW Sydney Award for Best Video (Coup De Gronk).

After previous collaborations with Nick Cave and billy woods as well as tours with the likes of The Bad Seeds, Spiritualized, Tropical Fuck Storm, and Algiers, Party Dozen recently toured the UK.
