PARTY DOZEN

Party Dozen is an Australian experimental noise-rock duo from Sydney, consisting of saxophonist Kirsty Tickle and percussionist Jonathan Boulet. Known for their raw, high-energy soundscapes, the band blends saxophone loops, heavy drumming, and electronic manipulation to create an explosive and unpredictable sonic experience. Their music defies traditional genre boundaries, fusing elements of punk, jazz, and industrial noise. Party Dozen has gained a reputation for their wild and intense live performances, with Tickle’s fiery sax playing and Boulet’s powerful rhythms captivating audiences from start to finish.

Their latest album ‘Crime in Australia’ showcases a group absolutely unafraid to explore their “many dumb ideas”, and as a result this album takes you places that are thrilling, visceral, face-melting, surprisingly danceable and frequently ridiculous, often all at the same time.
