Bats are what arose from the ashes of The Scotch Of Saint James – one of Perth’s most potent, most beautifully anomalous rock bands. Transcendent of era, Bats could be well-placed in any decade of rock, but would stand out nonetheless with their swirling vortex of stoner groove riffs and vocal melodies that glide around the mix like apparitions.
What began as a solo project is now a roll call of esteemed Perth musicians: Michael Paver (TSOSJ, The Slim Pickins), Jozef Grech (The Infidels, Project Mayhem), Pete Acklin (The Volcanics) and Tim Stacey (High Horse, Ruby Boots), Tim Hamzah (TSOSJ, The Belle Ends).
