Sick Puppies

Sydney, AU · 1997–present · active
Australian-American rock trio Sick Puppies gained international attention when their track 'All the Same' soundtracked the viral 'Free Hugs Campaign' video in 2006, launching them from Sydney's rock underground to global recognition. Their sound evolved from scrappy alt-rock beginnings into polished, aggressive hard rock across albums like 'Tri-Polar' and 'Connect,' anchored by Shimon Moore's versatile vocals and Emma Anzai's powerful bass playing. After lineup changes, Sick Puppies have continued to deliver arena-ready rock anthems that balance accessibility with genuine heaviness.
