About Us

Formed in the gritty heart of Geelong, Victoria, Software Update is a rock n roll and punk powerhouse that sounds like if AC/DC, The Angels, Motörhead, Dwarves and Rose Tattoo all met at a crossroads, lit up a pack of Marlboro Reds, and cranked up the volume to 11.

The record’s standout track, God Help Me, has already become a fan favorite, amassing over 5,000 streams on Spotify.
