"The band’s pre-release single Jesus Ain’t My Boyfriend is testament to the group’s untapped talent...high energy, catchy, hook ridden..." www.musicsa.com.au
Emotive fresh pop rock that’ll make you feel something real and nod ya head. Groove, rock, electro, get it on.
Squeaker was founded in 2002 by Steve Staben (AKA Squeaky), a songwriter and frustrated guitarist trapped in a drummer’s body. Initially being a songwriting outlet for Steve, the band began as an 8 person line-up gradually morphed into what it is today.
In 2007 Squeaker launched their controversial yet well recieved pre-release single ‘Jesus Ain’t My Boyfriend’, with their sound being likened to acts such as Garbage and Rogue Traders. In the same year their song ‘Reason’, engineered and produced by Dave Ross, won ‘Best Production’ in the Open Master category of SCALA’s FOOM 2007 Awards, they were chosen as a Hottest Pick in the internet based Toohey’s Extra Dry Uncharted Band Competition run by Sony BMG, and played a grand final performance in the Pure Blonde Winter Rock Wars Battle of the Bands.
In 2008 ‘Jesus Ain’t My Boyfriend’ was included on the Foghorn Records’ national compilation CD ‘Grow Your Own Upload Volume 2’ leading to a full house showcase gig with fellow SA inclusions Illicit Eve at the Wheatsheaf Hotel, and a Sydney showcase tour. In April Squeaker took first prize in the Cavern Club & Cecere's Battle Of The Bands Grand Final.
In 2009 the band has been enjoying full rooms in Adelaide and continues to work on their new recording project due to be completed later this year.

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
