Marmaleene and The Moondusters didn't even make it to a year as an active band. They exploded onto the Brisbane scene to play their first show in August 2017 and took their final tubular bow in June 2018. During that time, however, they garnered the love and attention of locals with their infectious jungle percussion, bone-rattling organ and high-riding, wah-wah worshipping guitar.
With one hand wrapped around a tiki cocktail and the other hanging ten, the trio cherry picks its flavours from the gardens of Dick Dale, Messer Chups, early Tarantino soundtracks and B-grade horror films. The self-titled release captures all seven of their studio recordings as well as a collection of their best live recordings.
As quickly as they had arrived, they were gone. Leaving a giant hole in the music community, one that will never again see the likes of Marmaleene and The Moondusters.
