ramble and the sleepers
‘You haven't seen this much energy in a local act for as long as you can remember. It's a little like John Butler without the dreads but more swampy mixed with some Ben Harper and some down-to-earth songs. Kindred spirits, these guys you will like’ – Simon London.
Think explosive but considered, raw but somehow refined, uplifting yet grounded, and you have the roots/rock/blues sound that is Ramble and the Sleeper’s music.
Headed by singer/songwriter Joel Barker on slide guitar, Ramble and the Sleeper’s are an emerging 4 piece roots band on the Perth music scene. Barker is accompanied by Tim Truell’s funky base lines, Dane Knowles’ percussive drumming and Cameron Barker’s complementary and enhancing percussion.
Originally forming in mid 2004, Ramble and the Sleeper’s have carved a reputation as one of Perth’s most energetic live bands.
This is a band on the rise, so check them out.
