Floating Roach
Melbourne three piece, punk band Floating Roach have stormed their way into the vast Melbourne punk scene leaving a trail of mass destruction in their wake. There is just no stopping these guys!

Floating Roach is: Mark Wightley (bass/vocals), Adam Sutholand (guitar/vocals) and Matthew Woolhouse (Drums/ Vocals).

The band started off in early March ‘06 with drummer Mark Wightley(bass/vocals) Shane Turvol (Drums) and Nick Lesle (guitar/vocals). The idea for the band came from Mark’s challenge to write and record a full punk album within the space of a day, the band failed miserably.

After Playing gigs around Melbourne at venues such as Crown, The Arthouse, The Tote, Revolver and The Espy, as well as many other smaller venues, Floating Roach did a Tour in October ‘07 and played at some of Adelaide’s best venues and bars. The response from the Adelaide croud was fenominal and were asked by fans to return hastily.
