The Snowdroppers came together in the third quarter of 2007, a group of messed up misfits with one thing in common; the desire to introduce the blues to a new generation of fans. Realising they were in fact four clean-limbed honkeys and not beer soaked blues hounds (not yet) they decided to mix things up a little, which seemed to work in their favour, as their first ever show drew 1300 paying audience members. Of the 1300, only half asked for their money back - thanks in part, to their ribald songs about fornication and intoxication, and by drawing inspiration from the blues and rock masters and Americana Alt Country hot spots.



Taking their name from Sydney 1920’s slang term for cocaine addicts, The Snowdroppers delight in delivering something dark and thrillingly nostalgic, and by adding their own unique interpretations (and bastardisations) of the genre, the sound is unique and fresh with original material and a modern stage presence all these ingredients cook up a broth of mongrel mean pop gruel.



Consisting of four members (Johnny Wishbone on banjo/vocals, Pauly K on guitar, London on bass and Cougar Jones on drums), The Snowdroppers released their debut CD "TOO LATE TO PRAY" in early November 2009. Comprised of original work and blues classics the first single "Rosemary" signals a sonic lock up your daughters rampage while the CD's opening track "Do The Stomp" is to be unleashed into the marketplace in February 2010.



The last 18 months have seen the lads performing almost non-stop around the country, we did say almost non stop with comfort breaks being allocated when bladders were dangerously full to avoid urinary tract infections.



With an ear for the past and an eye for the future, The Snowdroppers are guaranteed to bring something greatly needed to the Australian music scene... an enema.
