The Soft Pack are finally set to bring their signature no-frills blitz-kreig punk-infused pop to Australia.

The Soft Pack – formerly known as The Muslims - began as a collaboration of two friends, Matt Lamkin and Matty McLoughlin. “We wanted to start a band that played simple, catchy, smart rock songs,” says Matt. “There weren’t many bands in San Diego doing that at the time. So we did.”

Already garnering comparisons to the likes of The Strokes, The Velvet Underground and Eddy Current Suppression Ring, The Soft Pack is rock and roll distilled to its very essence. Civil Society is thrilled to welcome The Soft Pack to Australia for their debut tour. Don’t miss your chance to see rock and roll at its most raw, unrefined and exciting.
