Shore Break recently won Mosh Battle of the Bands, and they're proving that you don't have to leave Durban to build a strong alternative band.
In this episode of Sludge Underground, we sit down with the Scottburgh outfit to talk about how the band came together, balancing school with playing live, and why their drummer, Teagan, is trusted with running everything on social media.
The conversation also dives into the South African alternative scene. The band shares why they don't feel they're missing out by staying in KZN, discusses the differences between Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town, and explains why connecting with people at gigs has been the biggest reason for their growing support.
We also chat about:
- Winning Mosh Battle of the Bands
- Their dream festivals, including Splashy Fen and Ballito Pro
- Whether they'd sign a record deal
- Why live shows matter more than chasing social media
- Their plans to slow down briefly before going all out during the December holidays
If you're into South African alternative music, punk, rock and discovering the next generation of local bands, this episode is for you.
