Emerging from the volcanic heart of Mount Gambier, South Australia, Gernz, a three-piece grungy, punky Ausrock band, is thrilled to announce the release of their debut single, "It's Been a While...". Available now on all major streaming platforms, the track is an energetic, bouncy introduction to their raw and catchy sound.
"It's Been a While..." holds special significance for the band as the first song they wrote, recorded, and perform live. Dark yet playful, the track delivers an irresistible mix of grunge and punk energy, capturing the essence of late-night laughs, raw creativity, and the chemistry that makes Gernz unique.
The single is accompanied by a music video and a companion feature called “The Chill Out Sessions,” inviting listeners into the band’s creative space and highlighting the authenticity behind their sound.
What’s Next?
Gernz is keeping the momentum alive with their next release, “Apprentice Tradie,” dropping on January 31, 2025. This tongue-in-cheek, high-energy track pokes fun at, and pays homage to, the hardworking apprentice mates back home. With a shift toward a more playful, lighthearted vibe, “Apprentice Tradie” promises to be a punk rock anthem that’s “seriously fun.”
Who Are Gernz?
Born out of shared late-night conversations and years of playing in other bands, Gernz formed in 2024, bringing their combined experience and chemistry into a cohesive new project. While they’ve been quietly building their craft through local gigs at festivals, pubs, clubs, and backyard parties, the band is now stepping into the spotlight with music that captures the raw, unfiltered spirit of regional Australia.
