EFFIJY

About Me

EFFIJY are a group of friends brought together through their love of music, playing gigs and partying hard in the process.
Jeremy Kirkwood is the lead singer of the band and has an incredible vocal range coupled with his ability on the guitar. Chris Hewitt is the lead guitarist and is seeing his hard work on the guitar over the past years finally pay off as he shows off his brilliant lead guitarist skills. Mick Parr is the the bass player who loves a beer and a feed as much as he loves playing shows. Adrian Haynes is the bands drummer and loves nothing more than rocking out behind the boys on his Roland electronic kit. Finally Anthony Whittington is the glue who holds everything together. He manages the band, runs the sound and lights at every gig and even finds time to get up and sing a few songs.
EFFIJY are committed to ensuring everyone feels part of the show and enjoys themselves. With a fantastic pa and lightshow bringing all the sounds and colours people would expect from a top notch act. EFFIJY plays at various venues throughout Canberra, Queanbeyan, Batemans Bay, Crookwell and Goulburn just to name a few. Get along to an EFFIJY show when you can to experience great pub rock!
