    Beloved Melbourne band The Huxton Creepers have announced a vinyl re-issue of their debut album, “12 Days To Paris”, ahead of national tour dates. Cheersquad Records & Tapes will issue the LP on June 5 to mark its 40th anniversary and pre-orders are open here.

    The Huxton Creepers were one of Australia's most popular and hardest working guitar bands of the '80s, emerging as a teenaged version of both Sunnyboys and Hoodoo Gurus with a bit of Chris Bailey Saints thrown in for good measure.

    Combining elements of powerpop, grunge, and the sort of hard-edged rock ‘n’ roll that only comes out of Melbourne, the Huxton Creepers were one of the of the best bands in Australia in the ‘80s. With three well received LPs and non-stop touring, the Creepers, while only round for five years, certainly made their mark on the scene in Melbourne but also all over the country, playing anywhere and everywhere.

    The Creepers are back playing a rare show at the Corner Hotel on Saturday, 27 August, along with other ‘80s legends the Gas Babies and Intoxica.

    Huxton Creepers lead singer Rob Craw was happy to reminisce on the bands original run, and also what keeps them coming back for more.
