Blak Tui

Blak Tui

This energetic three piece, garage rock band was formed in early 2019. Founding member, guitarist and vocalist Chris Reidy was joined by the hard rock driving bassist Nick Haggarty and the hard hitting, hard rock drummer Darren Webb to form Blak Tui. From mid 2019 and with the release of their debut album ‘In Colours’, the band set out to begin the Blak Tui movement.

By 2020, Blak Tui was a house hold name in the Perth rock music scene. Headlining shows at the city’s Amplifier Bar and Clancy’s in Fremantle. They supported Blackwood Morris at The Prince Of Whales Hotel in Bunbury and in 2021 they supported Legs Electric and Electric State at The Beaconsfield Hotel in Fremantle. They also supported Dallas Radio at The Dunsborough Tavern, and also at The Settlers Tavern in Margaret River.

In mid 2022, they headed back into Lamb Chop Studios with James Newhouse to record their second full length studio album ‘Interspersed’. And in early 2023 they released two singles from that album ‘My Radio’ and ‘She Didn’t Say’ before releasing the whole album on the 21st of June 2023.

Their music showcases what has inspired over years of life, music, work and play. With elements of Shihad, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Queens Of The Stone Age and The Foo Fighters, yet through a hard-rock-tough-funk/melodic-pop filter that is very much their own.
