Refinery Drive

So this is our story… we’re from Sydney, Australia and our band Refinery Drive was once known as Dysfunction. We met at Big Music, an amazing music school, and through their system a few of us were selected to tour the US with School of Rock Australia! Having toured for three years we brought this experience back home and decided it was time to get serious :).

We love the Sydney pub scene and make it our mission to put on a high energy show every time we play. We've supported some incredible bands like DZ Deathrays and The Buoys, and we’ve even won a few band comps, including Northern Composure unplugged (judged by INXS's Kirk Pengilly), the Triple M Gotcha4Life band comp and RockFest Sydney. Most recently we reached the final of the 2023 Sounds Good band series.

Our style is squarely pop-punk but if you listen closely you'll notice elements from our diverse musical backgrounds (did someone say metalcore jazz?!). We draw inspiration from Paramore, Tonight Alive and New Found Glory.

Our new single 'Promises' is our first under our new name and the first to feature Jenna on lead vocals. It’s far and away the best song we’ve ever released and we've been blown away by the amazing reception so far. We can’t wait to release more music in 2024!
