The SideTracked Fiasco

We get the giggles with Sydney funkcore rockers The SideTracked Fiasco talking Sasquatches, slap-bass, purple body paint, and partying.

The SideTracked Fiasco have been bringing the freaky funk and heavy rock for years, stepping up recently with their blistering, groovy new EP Enter the Motivational Sasquatch.

We chuckle through an interview with frontman Ryan and slap bass master John, where they explain their Sasquatch shamen Catboggie Sed, their crazy live costumes, playing an anti-drug benefit, partying around the nation, and what fans need to bring to have maximum fun.

The SideTracked Fiasco are touring the nation now. Check out the dates here.
