About Don Broco

Emerging from Bedfordshire with a potent mix of infectious pop-punk sensibilities and hard-hitting rock riffs, Don Broco have carved out a unique and formidable niche in the modern music landscape. Since their formation in 2008, the quartet – comprising Rob Damiani (vocals), Simon Delaney (guitar), Tom Doyle (bass), and Matt Pearce (drums) – have consistently defied easy categorisation, evolving their sound while retaining the core elements that make them so compelling. Their early EPs and debut album, Priorities (2012), showcased a band brimming with youthful exuberance and a knack for crafting catchy, guitar-driven anthems.

It was with their sophomore effort, Automatic (2015), that Don Broco truly hit their stride, embracing a more polished, synth-infused pop-rock sound that propelled them to greater commercial success. Tracks like “Superlove” and “Fire” became instant fan favourites, demonstrating their ability to blend stadium-sized hooks with a lyrical wit that’s both relatable and irreverent. This willingness to experiment and evolve has been a hallmark of their career. Their third album, Technology (2018), saw them delve further into a heavier, more groove-oriented sound, whilst still retaining their melodic prowess with tracks like “T-Shirt Song” and the undeniable anthem “Stay Up”. Their most recent album, Amazing Things (2021), has been met with critical acclaim, solidifying their status as one of the UK’s premier rock acts. It saw them further refine their signature blend of high-energy rock, catchy melodies, and a palpable sense of fun. Notable hits that consistently ignite crowds include the high-octane “Thug Workout,” the surprisingly heartfelt “Birthday Party,” the anthemic “Whole Truth,” and the crowd-pleasing singalong classic “First Time Ever.” Their live performances are legendary, transforming any venue into a sweaty, euphoric party.
