The Mayhems play the perfect blend of sassy soul, Funkin grooves and dirty blues and are heavily seduced by New Orleans funk and brass. Featuring some of Melbourne’s hottest horn players, vocalists and drummers, the band boasts a creative and organic repertoire of original music and is proud of its unique Melbourne sound.

“The dirty grooves and tantalising soloists get into your soul and extract the part that makes us all smile. It’s loud, it’s honest, and it’s got that thing that makes your back-bone shiver and your hip bones swing.”

The Mayhem players are all seasoned musicians performing regularly in ensembles like Public Opinion Afro Orchestra, Bombay Royal, Pearly Shells, Vulgar Grad, Cleverhorse, Gotye, Adam Simmons Toy Band, Royal Swazi Spa, Fem Belling Quintet, Tim Shawcross Septet, Speakeasy, LA45, Lamine Sonko, African Intelligence and many more.
