About the Artist

Ukulele Death Squad have built a cult reputation as the band no one can define but everyone wants to see live. Their explosive performances have won over audiences across Australia, New Zealand and Europe, with shows that blur the line between concert, cabaret and communal release. With over 1.4M streams and four SA Music People's Choice Awards under their belt, the genre-defying collective bridge the gap between folk tradition and high-octane energy.

In a world where there are at least two ukulele orchestras, this slimmer eight-piece extravaganza from the Australian badlands declares themselves to be the planet's "most dangerous ukulele band." Their name more than hints at the level of menace and peril contained within. Luckily for you, they are largely armed with several examples of the miniature, titular instrument along with their epic vocal performance, pulsing conga-led rhythms, and of course, their big, bold brass battalion ready for combat. The death squad wields their instruments like master marksmen, hitting their target every time using their arsenal of gypsy jazz, R&B, and folk.

From their beginnings at Adelaide Fringe to debauched summer festivals across Germany and beyond, Ukulele Death Squad have built a reputation as one of the most unforgettable live acts in the country. Their shows aren't just performances - they're invitations to release your inhibitions and become the silliest, boldest version of yourself, for one night only.
