Highway Blonde

Highway Blonde are regarded by many as one of the most dynamic up and coming modern rock bands in Australia. The band has a considerable following along the east coast with their latest video clip ‘Inside Moves’ winning the 2009 Pacific Film and Television prize for Best Independent Category.

Fans of bands such as The Foo Fighters, Kings of Leon and The Killers have been cranking Smart Artists latest singles ('Inside Moves' and 'Annie') throughout 20 countries and on over 300 radio stations throughout the US alone.

With the band continuing to receive much critical and popular acclaim both locally and internationally for their tight, melodic songs, the release of their new album 'Winning Ways' is only certain to propell the bands music onto many more ipods. Tracks like ‘Let it go’, ‘Annie’ and 'Inside Moves' showcase Highway Blonde's ability to write intelligent high-energy rock songs, where as tracks such as ‘Hurting on the Inside’ and the epic conclusion to the album, ‘Bad Girl’ display the band’s desire to work outside the 3 minute boundary.

Love, sex, reparation, salvation, being and nothingness: these subjects entwine and influence the music of HIGHWAY BLONDE. But down to its bones, commercial modern rock is what HIGHWAY BLONDE write… they just layer those bones in muscle, and give the beast a heart.

So, buckle up! Roll down the windows! Crank the volume! Whether it's a corporate event, a music festival, or a night at the popular local venue, HIGHWAY BLONDE is known as the band that creates an event and delivers an awesome performance every time.
