about

Originally formed in 1982, The Mangroves cryogenically froze themselves under strict instructions only to be revived during Brisbane's renaissance. That time is here.

Now, The Mangroves have thawed out in the scorching summer temperatures of the Streets Beach to produce eleven songs all about Brisbane.

Described by critics as 'the least accessible album of the decade,' if you're not from Brisbane, this band isn't for you.
