Australian punk rock band, The Saints, are no strangers to the stage. Having played music together since the mid 70s and enduring through a short-term split, Chris Bailey (vocals and guitar/bass), Barry Francis (guitar) and Peter Wilkinson (drums) still continue to successfully tour on an international scale. Their long time presence has given them fans that have stuck with them from the beginning; and with them, they have bring in a younger generation to appreciate the traditional punk rock sounds that The Saints bring to all of their shows.
Dressed like they just don’t care and look as cool as ever, they take to the stage and give one hell of a show. Picking up their instruments, from start to finish they have a high amount of energy, especially when you consider how long they have been performing; they haven’t slowed down yet. Watching their show, you also get to experience the entire crowd singing every word to every song for the entire hour-long set. The sheer respect and love for the band is completely overwhelming, and when they speak to the crowd, they are the ultimate epitome of cool. They embody everything that punk rock was created for, the originals.
