CRASH TRAGIC
Anthony Kalsow - Guitar/Vocals
Paul Ditton - Bass
Scott Campbell - Drums
Hailing from the heart of the Wollongong CBD and Sounding a bit like Jimmy Eat World or Blink 182 when they weren’t singing about dicks, Wollongong trio Crash Tragic are indie/alternative rockers Anto Kalsow (vocals, guitar), Paul Ditton (bass) and Scott Campbell (Drums). The bands current release: "Postscript Reflections" (EP) features the track "Cant Go On" which received national airplay on Triple M, 2Dayfm and Radar Radio in 2010 and 2011. With strong songs like this receiving national exposure these lads are building some serious momentum...
Crash Tragic have proved themselves in larger venues on the big stage showcasing their huge live sound supporting such acts as Gyroscope, Kisschasey, Children Collide, MEST (USA), Guttermouth (USA), Thousand Needles In Red, Trial Kennedy and The Art on various national tours gaining many new fans along the way.
Crash Tragic is a band that is no stranger to hard work, formed in 2007, Crash Tragic have notched up hundreds of shows over the last few years all over the country, touring as far south to Melbourne and Tasmania, West to Adelaide and all up and down the east coast of New South Wales including major cities such as Newcastle, Sydney, Wollongong and Canberra.
Crash Tragic's current release is their second CD/EP titled “Postscript Reflections” which was recorded with producer Anthony Thé who has worked with the likes of Regurgitator, The Vines, Wolfmother and Sarah Blasko. The release delivers a more mature sound, reflecting the band’s growth and experience over the past two years since their first self-titled release (Crash Tragic, 2007).
In support of the "Postscript Reflections" EP Crash Tragic released a video for the song "Simple Separation" which has been featured on RAGE and Landed Music (SC10) as well as the bands YouTube channel and Facebook.
Crash Tragic were formed in 2007 in Wollongong from the remnants of several local groups, (Stiffler, Larynex & Creeper). Those three bands all offered something different musically to the listener. When those three different styles and music genres came together to form Crash Tragic, the result was an original blend of rock that instantly stood out, thanks largely to the group’s ability to sculpt songs with a range of various influences whilst still being mindful of creating something original. The band draws inspiration from a wide range of artists and cites Jimmy Eat World, The Get Up Kids, The Cure, Bodyjar & Nirvana as inspiration.
Crash Tragic released their first CD/EP in 2007 through Music Farmers. The five track self-titled EP was a strong starting point for the band, with the track ‘Lets Go’ receiving commercial airplay on the south coast’s most popular station i98fm in 2008. In addition, ‘Lets Go’ was heard screaming through the headphones of snowboarders and skiers alike as the song featured on ‘Perisher Blue First Tracks Vol. 2’ CD Compilation, thanks to the track being selected in the top 5 of the national Launch Your Band Competition 2008 out of more than 430 entries. Crash Tragic also created a music clip in support of the track ‘Keep Me Guessing’ which featured on RAGE
