Banditas from Boston in the US of A were another treasure of a find—sweet harmonies and fuzzy distortion. Their songs are inspired by “notorious women, murder ballads, cowboy daddies, boys and summers.” They recently played a show with Australia’s own Lanie Lane while she was overseas, they also performed at this year’s SXSW.
