Bio

Having spent several years darkening doorways and gracing stages around the globe in other musical guises Sin City were formed in the dry desert heat of Spain’s Costa Blanca.

Originally hailing from Auckland, New Zealand, band-mates Jack Beesley and Nick Armstrong (The Cavemen), found themselves sharing a squalid room in the town of Alicante and spent several months writing songs inspired by their mutual love for outlaw country, barroom soul and rock ’n’ roll.

From Marty Robbins to Mink Deville, Glen Campbell to Gram Parsons and Bobbie Gentry to Bruce Springsteen, they draw their roots from a gumbo of 60's & 70's country-soul Americana. With these influences worn firmly on their sleeves, Sin City weave their own stories of drunken heartbreak, road-worn revelry and cowboy tinged murder-balladry into these classic forms.

Their live shows, either as a stripped down acoustic duo or as a full 5-piece powerhouse, have quickly become infamous for their wild energy, wry humour and tender charm.

They’ve recently planted their boots back on home shores, with a Delaney Davidson produced album on the way. But make no mistake, Sin City have their sights set firmly on the horizon...
