The Vines Biography

The Vines are an Australian alternative rock band originally formed as Rishikesh in 1994 in Sydney. They play a musical hybrid of 1960s garage rock and 1990s alternative music. Until 2011, their line-up consisted of vocalist and lead guitarist Craig Nicholls, rhythm guitarist Ryan Griffiths, bass guitarist Brad Heald, and drummer Hamish Rosser. In December 2011, Channel [V] presenter Jane Gazzo confirmed via Twitter that Griffiths and Rosser had been "sacked" from the band.

The Vines' success in the Australian recording industry resulted in winning an ARIA Award in 2002 for 'Breakthrough Artist - Single' for "Get Free", and receiving five other nominations for their debut album Highly Evolved, plus two further nominations in subsequent years. In 2003, the album went double platinum in Australia, and since then the band has released four albums and a best-of compilation from their time at Capitol Records. Their fifth album and newest release titled Future Primitive was released on 3 June 2011 in Australia with worldwide release dates to be announced.
