General

The Vaudevillains are a three pieced Psychobilly/Rockabilly/Jazz band from Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.The band formed in 2006 when members Adrian Whyte (Guitar and Vocals) and Jim Morris (Double Bass and Backup Vocals) met whilst studying Jazz at University.
With Adrian and Jim both being lovers of a broad range of music, they began talking about starting up a fresh new band to explore their growing talents. They recruited Jim's younger brother Mix to play drums and together they have managed to become an up and coming talented and tight-knitted band which is now such a weird and wonderful fusion of Psychobilly, Rockabilly, Jazz, Punk and Rock.

After releasing a demo in mid 2007, The Vaudevillains hit the studio to record their debut EP. On the 26th of January, 2008, The Vaudevillains released their debut EP entitled 'Vaudevillain Nights' to a sold out crowd at the Tote in Collingwood, Melbourne. The EP contains 5 of their original songs; 'Ill Motivation', 'Werecar', 'Trip to the Moon', 'Devil Drives a Valiant' and the title track 'Vaudevillain Nights'. Their EP, as well as merchandise, can be purchased from shows or [http://www.missinglink.net.au/ Missing Link] in Melbourne.

The band has increased their popularity beyond the region of Melbourne, and hardened their status as a greatly talented band on the rise as a result of supporting such big acts as The Meteors, Nekromantix, Tiger Army, Zombie Ghost Train and also gaining support for Mad Sin who unfortunately had to cancel their tour down under.

Over the last 12 months, The Vaudevillains have toured Tasmania twice, played a couple of shows in Adelaide and just recently played amongst some of the finest Rockabilly/Psychobilly bands in Australia at Sinners Ball, Greazefest in Brisbane. There is currently talk of a West Coast tour within the next couple of months.
