Being The Drums means being one of the most hardworking bands around at the moment – since they skyrocketed in hype in 2009, The Drums haven’t slowed down, incessantly touring and releasing two LPs in that time. They’ve visited antipodean shores before, working the festival circuit and are about to do it for the third time – this time around for St. Jerome’s Laneway Festival.
