Dick Richards (15)

Singer from Brisbane, Australia I was frontman of STRUTTER, Singer and guitar player in The Aampirellas. But main job has been singer/songwriter and early guitarist for HITS who have toured Australia extensively since 2002 -2003 or something. HITS have 3 albums 'Living with you is killing me'(2008), 'Hikiomori' (2014) produced by (Rob Younger from Radio Birdman) and 'Live In A Fuckin Blizzard' (2020). There are 6 singles and e.ps which don't appear on albums as well. We are currently working on our 4th album 'DEATH'. HITS have supported and toured with many overseas acts of note (Buzzcocks, Sonics, Kid Congo Powers,Tumbleweed, Birdman etc etc) and played too many festivals to count (Mona, Golden Plains, Binic, River Rocks etc etc) They have also toured Europe twice in 2012 and 2016. STRUTTER is responsible for the critically acclaimed album 'Motherfuckers from the bowels of Hell'. The Aampirellas are responsible for The 'Fuck Yeah' e.p, the 'Why, cause you're fucked that's why' 7" and the album "Snatching Defeat from the jaws of Victory' which was the first independently released album to be awarded jjj's album of the week. Both bands toured Australia A BLOODY LOT and The Aampirellas also toured New Zealand on one occasion. Often Evil Dick (me) can be or has been known to moonlight in bands such as Meatbeaters, Giants of Science, The Hymies, The Celibate Rifles (one show alongside Jello Biafra), The Exploding Boys (Cure tribute), and Jack Howard's Epic Brass to name a few. His first EVER band was called The Dumb Act which had a young Lazy Grey (Aussie Hip Hop legend) on drums Jack Howard (Midnight Oil/Hunters and Collectors) can be heard on my Evil Dick Industries project which is an egomaniacal side project that maybe one day might get off the ground. That's a very brief history from the best of my knowledge.
