GAUCI
The prismatic project of Antonia Gauci (engineer for GRAMMY-nominated work by Kesha, Lil Yachty, Troye Sivan), David Gauci (Flowertruck and previously Hatchie), and Felix Lush (supported Toro y Moi, Methyl Ethyl, daine) come together as GAUCI through their enduring adherence to contemporary power pop and fierce punk. Balancing roaring alternative music and the euphoric release of the dancefloor, their spirit firm in tethering the untenable or unexpected – revved up guitars and synths steeped in a club-ready bass – twisted into an impression entirely their own.
Consistently winning over crowds at Yours & Owls, Dark Mofo, BIGSOUND, Grampians Music Festival, Wave Rock Weekender, King Street Crawl, Secret Garden, Mountain Goat Valley Crawl, and appearances supporting Beach Fossils, Automatic, 1300, Hatchie, Julia Jacklin, G Flip, Jaguar Jonze, Parcels, Alice Ivy, Wafia, Vallis Alps and more alongside sold-out headline shows in Sydney and Melbourne.
Champions of the local scene by FBi Radio, Purple Sneakers, RUSSH Magazine and others, GAUCI’s “exhilarating” releases including the triple j playlisted ‘Irritating‘ have sought ongoing praise from The Guardian, dublab, PAPER Magazine, Bandcamp, Tone Deaf, Pilerats, Sniffers, Music Feeds and more. Now GAUCI stands ready in pursuit of their next chapter: to share hit after hit.
