THE FISTS: Leroy and the Doctor

BIOGRAPHY

Just as DJs kidnapped the children of grunge and transformed them into clubbers, the FISTS have mounted a live counter-attack on clubs and are winning back unsuspecting clubbers in increasing numbers. The FISTS bring to the stage an exciting and new way to experience electronic dance music. No longer do you need to see a local DJ for your beat medication, as the FISTS are prescribing an alternative therapy.

At the heart of The Fists are two party people, Leroy and the Doctor. Leroy is the drummer extraordinaire, and the Doctor tames wild electronic beasts. That's not strictly true, as given some encouragement, the Doctor can squeeze the wilco beat out of the traps, and Leroy knows his way around the mouse and space bar too. But anyway, together they are the Fists, and when its comes to rockin' the establishment in an old school way, these guys get the job done in stereo.

Their blistering drums and percussion bring a new level of energy to the dance music scene. There is no escaping the energy of a live FISTS show. Their high octane repertoire funks from booty-shakin' breakbeats and hip hop to deep down and dirty 2am style chuggin tech/house and progressive breaks. Live on stage the FISTS create a sound so fat and funky it¹ll satisfy even the most of discerning club appetites!

From their own sell out headline shows in hometown Wollongong, to packed out supports with RESIN DOGS, THE HERD, KOOLISM, NUBREED, ENDORPHIN &BIONIKWORLD, these guys are fast becoming an institution in an ever growing scene.

Their self-produced debut EP "SUNSHINE n BREAKS" is a 6 song tour de force of their trademark high energy house and breaks. The CD showcases local MCs and guest vocalists and swaggers from the infectious first single and namesake "SUNSHINE N BREAKS" though the drum n bass rumbles of "SUBSISTENCE". A fast paced and energetic journey sure to set the world stage on fire ­ and all outta the GONG!
