The Quills have a sound unique to contemporary music. With tightly controlled rhythms underpinning layers of electro-synth, and vivid, sincere vocals, The Quills create fresh, modern Australian pop/rock.
The Quills have earned a reputation for outstanding live performance. Close on the heels of their headlining spring 2008 tour of South-East Queensland, The Quills recently made their second appearance at the popular Woodford Folk Festival to overflowing venues. In the past year The Quills have also supported both emerging and established artists like Sparkadia and Operator Please, and received national airplay on taste making radio station Triple J.
The Quills’ self-produced, independently released EP Some New Place (2007) debuted at No. 1 on the charts at local Brisbane radio station 4ZzZ, and went on to sell more than 1000 units from shows and web exposure alone. In 2008, The Quills followed the EP with their independently released live CD/DVD, A Thought In Your Head, documenting the first show of their similarly named spring tour at landmark Brisbane venue, The Zoo.
The band’s immediate plans are focused on expanding their audience, with national and international touring planned. The Quills will have a presence at South by South-West in Austin, Texas, and with pre-production already underway for their next release, 2009 for The Quills looks both busy and bright.

"Also hugely enjoyable, highly original AND psychically useful is the
music of Australian duo The Scrapes, whose fiery epic guitar and
abandoned Mithraic fiddle pieces evoke images of lost Keltic lands
inundated by the oceans, lost Iberian & Armorican sea peoples and
lost times from beyond the beyond." Julian Cope
