- The Band -
Hailing from Sydney, Australia, is original blues-rock band The Desert Mile, writing music with deep tones to warm you straight to your bones. Each member brings their own unique style to the band with decades of performing experience between them.
We started the band in 2022, working on a few existing demos that Andy initially put together. We began collaborating on new songs, keeping to the blues-rock flavour but not afraid to experiment with other influences.
We independently released 3 songs to the world on Spotify and other streaming platforms in 2023:
Uncommon Behaviour
10 Mile Away
It’s Been Real
Highlighting 2024, performing in venues such as Sydney's The Moshpit Bar, Oxford Art Factory, Soultrap, we also won the annual Australia Day Battle of the Songs competition for 2 of our songs in January. We won our heat in the Sailor Jerry's Battle of the Bands competition at Rock Lily (Star City Casino, Sydney) making it to the Grand Final in April.
In September, we released our debut Music Video for 10 Mile Away.
Celebrating Halloween in 2024, we released our latest single:

Focusing ahead, we are continuing to write new music with an aim to release an album in 2025, and of course, play more gigs.
