While the band is now based in Newcastle, several of its members grew up in Tamworth, and their previous visit was early last month to play two gigs at The Albert.

“We always pull a good crowd in Tamworth,” Deroy said. “It was our home base, so every time we play in Tamworth it’s always a great night.”

The band is currently focused on their debut album, which they started recording on Monday, at local recording studio, Fat Track Studios.

“We haven’t finalised all the tracks for it, we’re still in the writing process, but that will be coming out next year,” Deroy said.

While the songs have not yet been recorded, plenty of fans have heard some of them, as last month the band played the Gympie Muster for the second time following their debut their 12 months ago, where they played some of the new material.

Hurricane Fall will be hitting a big stage again next month when they play at the Deni Ute Muster.

“We are pumped for that one,” Deroy said. “It’s a good all-Australian line-up this year, so we’re proud to be part of that. It should be massive.”

Last year the band released an EP, and the current single, Don’t Miss Me, was released recently. 

Deroy said the song pays tribute to Australia’s servicemen and women and was inspired by his grandfather who served in World War II.

He tells the story of his grandfather, telling his grandmother, that she should if his killed and doesn’t return she should move on with her own life and not miss him.

“Such is the selflessness of the diggers at that time,” Deroy said.
