The Vendettas are a guitar-driven, straight-up rock band from Melbourne, Australia.
Known for their signature tones and vocal melodies, there is also a clear influence from all the greats of this genre (with a definite Stone Temple Pilots / Black Crowes / ‘Exile On Main St’ type vibe) in their music.
The band has been a part of Melbourne’s rock scene for more than 10 years, mastering their craft to every beer-soaked wall and sticky floor the town has to offer.
The Vendettas have gone from strength to strength, securing their first international support with Danko Jones (Canada), while continuing to build their presence in the local scene, doing what they love, belting out rock n roll, the way it should be!
