The Gnomes

The Gnomes (fka Gnome) is a four-piece rock band from Frankston, Australia, known for their tight sound, classic songwriting, and energetic live shows. Originally a solo project, The Gnomes has grown into a louder, sharper outfit with a full band lineup and a harder edge.

Taking influence from The Kinks, The Easybeats, and The Lemon Twigs, The Gnomes blends catchy melodies with driving beats, mixing the spirit of the ’60s with a fresh edge. Their sound pulls from Merseybeat, power pop, and vintage rock ’n’ roll, with a modern feel that’s punchy and direct.

The Gnomes early recordings leaned into lo-fi indie and slowcore, but now as a band their recent works mark a clear shift toward a more energetic, Rock'n'Roll guitar-driven approach. Their shows are full of energy, heart, and a little bit of chaos.

With a growing list of gigs under their belt and a more focused sound, The Gnomes are carving out a space in Melbourne’s rock scene, one punchy set at a time.
