FOOLS are one of Australia's most audacious proponents of the blues and roots genre. Heavily under the influence of soul, blues and Americana, the 12 piece have swiftly ascended to prominence after electrifying festival performances at festivals around the country, and the band's recent recognition as nominees alongside The Teskey Brothers in the 2023 National Live Music Awards' Best Live Blues and Roots Act category.

FOOLS are sitting comfortably in your record crate next to the modern day genre leaders; Black Pumas, Nathaniel Rateliff, Tedeschi Trucks Band, and Marcus King. 

"Best festival newcomer has to go to the 12-piece Melbourne band Fools, whose huge sound was perfectly suited to the large Mojo stage" Brian Wise, Rhythm Magazine

“Wait until you catch Fools – a super huge band fusing Rock & Roll, Blues and Soul into a dynamic live show.” Peter Noble OAM, Director, Bluesfest Byron Bay
