Bunyip started out as a one-off side project back in early 2012 with 3 mates, (then, all members of various Ballarat heavy metal bands), deciding to get drunk and get recording some heavy songs with their extremely basic home recording setup. After over a year of the project being abandoned, Bunyip returned with a new bass player and swiftly recorded a 5-track demo at home.

Over time, their sound has evolved somewhat and become less one dimensional. The band enjoy experimenting with many genres but always maintain a unique sound that is unmistakenly Bunyip. With a new drummer onboard, a debut album is in the works and the band are looking forward to gigging their humourous brand of heavy music in the very near future.

Make sure to keep an eye out on this page and the band's official facebook for gig dates and all that jazz.
