Grecco Romank

Bio

Hailing from the dank corners of New Zealand's music scene, Grecco Romank is not your average band, but they do boast the shortest average height of any Auckland act. Comprising Billie Fee (she/her), Mikey Sperring (he/him), and Damian Golfinopoulos (he/him), this trio emerged from the most unexpected of beginnings: a bus driver, an opera singer, and a Greek filmmaker converging in a haunted primary school to record their debut album.

Since 2020 the band have been releasing luxuriously bogan techno tracks inspired by microgenres like Industrial and Eurodance. Their debut album Red Tower was a critical success in Aotearoa’s underground circles, as was the custom perfume they crafted to accompany it. Grecco Romank has since carved out a niche for themselves as the most requested champions on student radio.

In March 2023, Wet Exit, their second album was released and found them reaching wider audiences with a sellout tour around Aotearoa. The album tore up the alternative radio charts with each of the four singles staying multiple weeks on Top Tens across the country. They were nominated for Favourite Group in the Student Radio Network Awards 2023, eventually taking home the Student Radio Top Ten Number One for their song Celestial Poison. Grecco Romank were one of three finalists for the 2024 Aotearoa Music Awards Te Manu Taki Whanok? o te Tau Best Alternative Act.

Described by Rolling Stone as "as the sound of the rave you never want to end up at but the one you inevitably find yourself magnetically drawn into." Their music is a unique fusion of The Prodigy's dance beats and haunting soprano of Kate Bush, captivating audiences nationwide and bringing them to their knees in packed venues. Grecco Romank recently blew minds at the sold-out Port Noise, Going Global, Camp A Low Hum and Splore festivals, as well as international support for artists Mykki Blanco (US), Proteins Of Magic (NZ) and Our Carlson (AUS).

With their upcoming album, Arts Colony, Grecco Romank shows no signs of slowing down. Their latest single, 2 Hot 2 Hunt, has already made waves on the NZ Top 40 chart, showcasing their ability to push boundaries and defy expectations. They’ve been drip-feeding new singles, including Sidetracked with Aussie Our Carlson. The band made a notable impact by headlining the Double Whammy opening show and recording an episode of Live Music Bar with Sports Team. They’re set to join forces with the Exploding Rainbow Orchestra for a full orchestral performance of an unreleased track and will bring their dynamic energy to 2024's Great Sounds Great festival alongside Fur Patrol.

Embracing decayed opulence and unabashed stupidity, Grecco Romank presents themselves as the villains of a wrestling match, prompting one to wonder… "Would you download a car?"
