TWEAK


Formed in1998 by four friends, Tweak perform their original material whose lyrics are about life. Tweaks tell it like it is. They write from experience to create a feel good sound somewhere between Pop and punk. The group draw on all styles of music including rap, reggae Rock and grunge.

They are always looking for new ways to do things on stage and enjoy dressing up and incorporating non-musical guests and inserts into their live shows. They started out doing party gigs and now play at all the major venues in Johannesburg. Tweak has been on tour with Sugardrive, Wonderboom and Ethel My Love and have played at the major festivals Oppikoppi and Woodstock.

Tweak have recorded two EP's, released a full-length album The Romantic Lure of Possum Worship, their debut single, The long Road reached number three on the 5fm Modern Rock Chart. They were selected to appear on the 5 FM Unearthed Compilation, their single Friends hit number one on the Modern Rock Chart on 5FM and to date they have over 40 songs copyrighted. Tweak is Chris 'Destroyer' Brink on bass guitar, Mike Stott on lead guitar, Garth Barnes on lead vocals and rhythm guitar and Paul Mathis on drums.
