With their debut Album 'This Waking Dream'
A full spectrum psychedelic odyssey - on the verge of being released.
Rufflefeather are a Sydney band that was formed by singer/guitarist Zane Thompson & Drummer Alexander Sullivan in 2011. Zane & Alex were friends throughout highschool, but it was only after finishing school that they began to collaborate. Which was the early incarnation of what would become Rufflefeather.
Guitarist Jonny Steiner joined shortly thereafter and the synergistic guitar weaving styles of Zane & Jonny became an enduring feature of Rufflefeather's evolving sound. The Triad of Alexander, Jonny & Zane has remained the cornerstone of the band. While a string of bass players joined and left.
(Jordan Neville, Tom Gray, Dom Kersch)
In 2013 Rufflefeather released their first EP 'Misanthropy', while Tom Gray was playing Bass. They toured the east coast of Aus before parting ways.
Rufflefeather continued to write and develop their sound in the time between bassists.
The perfect fit arrived in the form of Jack Kirkpatrick in 2015. This ushered in a new era for Rufflefeather with the sound becoming heavier & more psychedelic. They released 'Sixation' in 2016, followed by a tour of New Zealand. Receiving high praise from punters at Feastock festival.
Rufflefeather have honed their songs into an explosive and captivating live performance. Developing a reputation among the Sydney scene for being one of the tightest bands in town.
The band then released the respective singles 'Animus' (2018) and 'Amnesia' (2019) for which the film clip was premiered at CLIPPED.TV.
All the while Rufflefeather were in the studio recording their debut full length album 'This Waking Dream', set for release in 2020.
