The Bon Scotts – nottheBon Scott, he hasn’t unearthed himself and stepped into a recording studio – have released the second single from their latest and second album,Modern Capitalism Gets Things Done.

The album was released last October, but that don’t mean the band has stop putting new stuff out. ‘Summer Tapes’ is a nostalgic throwback to the days spent putting together mixtapes, falling in love, and most importantly, remembering the times of irresponsible childhood.

The seven-piece Melburnian folk-rock-pop group brings cowbells, trumpets, mandolins, saucepan smashing, violins, cellos, accordions, tubas, harmonicas, synths, vocoders, programmed drums and guitars together for a cacophony of rather accessible folk revivalism.

The Bon Scotts are stopping at The Great Northern Hotel in Newcastle on Friday March 20 and Shady Pines Saloon in Darlinghurst on Sunday March 22.
