Embark on a trip back to the 80’s with ‘Reckless’ the Australian Crawl Tribute, their recreation of the music has fans saying, “you took me back to the 80’s and made me feel 18 again.”
Coming back to the Airlie Beach Hotel is The Australian Crawl Tribute and Lead Singer/Owner of the band Marco Sinni said he and the rest of the band are looking forward to putting on a show in front of us here in the Whitsundays.
“Everybody is so welcoming every time we go, and the amount of people that go over and above to come and speak to us and find out what we're about is fantastic, and this includes the venue, the staff and the public,” said Marco.
“It's just a nice feeling that people appreciate the hard work we do to reproduce the music and give them a couple of hours of a trip back to the 80s.”
The band also try to replicate the Australian Crawl as much as possible, even down to the costumes.
“Australian Crawl never had a particular dress style costume, as such they were just your local boys from Mount Eliza that started a surf rock band,” explained Marco.
“I do tend to dress up a little bit like the singer, James Raine, because he does wear certain surfy type clothing, with beachy type clothing.”
Marco also says the band try to reproduce the music note for note and produce music for fans as close to humanly possible to the original Australian Crawl.
Marco and the rest of the band are massive fans of Australian Crawl, which is why they created the tribute act in the first place.
The crowd at the Airlie Beach Hotel can expect B-side songs like ‘Chinese Eyes’, but other hits such as ‘Beautiful People’ and ‘Errol’.
Since Australian Crawl are surf rock, the band don’t expect you to be on your feet all day long, but Marco ensures they will get you up before you leave.
“The response we get from audiences is interesting because it's semi-soft rock, it tends to be a response where people are tapping their feet and singing for the whole night, not necessarily jumping up and down like crazy,” said Marco.
“However, we structured the sets as per record sales and popularity. So, as we get towards the end of the second set with the faster songs, people tend to then start jumping around.”
