Last Dinosaurs

Brisbane’s irresistibly-catchy Last Dinosaurs drop in to discuss scaring the piss out of people, being the least skilled band in Japan, and much more.

The earworms are strong with Brisbane quartet Last Dinosaurs, who have been dropping impossibly-hooky singles over the last year or two, which culminated with their debut In A Million Years featuring the indie hit ‘Zoom’.

We chat to Sam and Sean from the band about skylarking on songwriting escapes (and terrifying the locals), getting outshone by the locals during a show in Japan, not really being influenced by world music, challenging themselves by writing tricky songs, and more.
