About

Who The Bloody Hell Are They? was started by Jerry Soer and Dom Alessio in July 2006. Dom has left to concentrate on his radio show Home and Hosed on Triple J, and Jerry is now a full time artist manager based in LA. One of Australia’s first music blogs, Who The Hell’s mission was to document and archive the progress of Australian music. Over the years, we’ve had many contributors volunteer their time to post new and emerging Australian artists. Many artists who we’ve initially posted on the blog have gone on to do great things both locally and overseas.

Who The Hell is a tightly curated blog about Australian music. We know our local scene well and only post stuff we love. All mp3s featured here are for download and streaming are for promotional purposes. If you like the artists you hear – harass them on their social networks, buy their cds/vinyls/tapes/merch mugs and smuggle your enthusiasm to the front row of their gig when they play in your city.

If you’re an artist/band from Australia or New Zealand, please send us your tunes. If your yuppie neighbours play in a band, we’ll probably post them too. You, in the Irish dub sessional/fat Romanian folk-jam band: we can’t help you out, but one of our MAP blog pals in your region may be able to.

We’re always on the hunt for new Australian music, little-heard-of bands, interesting ideas and music happenings – so drop us a line.
