With a band name that’s just one heavy animal away from the blues (think Howlin’
Wolf), Smoke Stack Rhino have been captivating audiences with their electrifying
live performances and authentic brand of blues and roots rock.
The trio from the swamps of the Yarra Valley have taken their high-energy show
to festivals across Australia like Blues at Bridgetown, Echuca Winter Blues,
Grampians Grape Escape, St Kilda Blues, Wingham Music Festival and more.
In 2023 they released The Mojo Funk, a heavy psychedelic blues album that
reached #2 on the ARIA Blues & Jazz Albums chart. New album The Mojo Dojo
expands the band’s sound with upbeat boogie rock sitting alongside acoustic and
psychedelic influences. Released in July 2024, the LP hit #17 on the Australian
Albums ARIA Chart.
Lead single Til’ The Day has been described as ‘a blues-rock banger with more dirt
in it than a 1940s Ford Pickup sitting at the bottom of a Louisiana swamp’.
Smoke Stack Rhino are best experienced live. Singer-guitarist Ash King is a
whirlwind with resonator guitar in hand, his earthy vocals reaching from deep
baritone to high screams, drummer Matt Berg pushes the band forward from
behind the kit and bassist Shane Andison stays rock solid, holding the whole thing
together with an infectious, catchy groove.
