Hailing from Naarm/Melbourne, punk trio CLAMM—comprising Jack Summers, Miles Harding, and Stella Rennex—delve into the tumultuous experience of youth striving to lead an authentic and principled life in an increasingly chaotic world. Their music confronts the challenges of navigating entrenched systems of power and oppression while striving to preserve mental well-being and a strong sense of self. Through their raw and visceral sound, CLAMM aspires to foster community, ignite creativity, and provide a channel for catharsis. Locally, CLAMM has shared stages with iconic acts such as Wolf Alice, Ty Segall, King Gizzard, Amyl & the Sniffers, The Chats, and The Murlocs, and has graced renowned festivals including Meredith Music Festival, Melbourne Music Week, Tentpole, and Do the Pop. Their international presence grew with a UK/Europe tour in August 2022, followed by another in February 2023, supporting A Place To Bury Strangers and Preoccupations. In May 2023, the band returned for a series of summer festival performances, including Wide Awake, Levitation, and Badd Bonn. Late in 2022, bassist Maisie Everett departed, and Stella Rennex (Parsnip, Thibault, The Toads) joined the band, bringing fresh energy to the lineup.In 2025, CLAMM released their highly anticipated third album, Serious Acts, marking a bold evolution in their sound. Featuring the single ‘And I Try’, the record retained the band’s signature no-nonsense lyricism while expanding into new sonic territory with the inclusion of synths and horns. The album signalled a confident new chapter for the trio—pushing their musical boundaries while staying true to their raw and powerful core. Looking ahead, CLAMM are already gearing up for their next release in 2026, set to arrive via an iconic Melbourne label, with more details to be revealed. Listen HERE
