The Southern River Band
Classic Rock|November 2024
Meet the Aussie rock'n'rollers with fire in their bellies and classic rock in their veins.
The Southern River Band

In a far corner of Western Australia, Cal Kramer once played a birthday party in a sheep-shearing shed. "You get there, there's the smell and everything," he says laughing. "You're going: 'Is this what I really wanted out of being in a band?!" Now fronting The Southern River Band, Kramer's horizons have expanded.

The band have just released their new album, D.I.Y, after ripping through a buzzy headline tour of Europe. By turns shitkicking and super-sweet, it plays like a classic-rocklover's dream, with flashes of Status Quo and Van Halen, the tenderness of Thin Lizzy, and various nods to Bon-era AC/DC.
