Press Kit: “Not often will you hear an album that achieves so much with every track. Tenpenny Joke's music is lyrically creative, with strong lead vocals and smooth melodic harmonies. ‘Ambush On All Sides’ is a compilation of great songs, each one equally as fabulous as the next. Most bands will write one or two really great songs and let you down with ten very ordinary ones. But Tenpenny Joke just keep getting it right. That's a recipe for success.” Marni, Scrub Radio Program Manager, USA “The philosophy of Tenpenny Joke is deceptively simple - hit songs, and more of them.” Damon Carrol, Triple R Radio “Excellent music: vocals, instrumentation (especially the guitars), production ...all is superb. Recalls the glory days of Alice in Chains. You've just gotten yourself a new fan.” Peter Greenway, Pro Music Reviewer, Broadjam USA Discography Albums Ambush On All Sides (2006) (Album) EPs Even Harbour (2003) (EP) Tenpenny Joke (aka self-titled EP) (2000) (EP) Videos • Sirens (2006) • She (2005) • Sense (2004) • Even Harbour (2003) Label/Management Label Sing Sing Productions Distribution Shock Records Management AQEntertainment Tenpenny Joke Appearances TV: Rage (ABC), On The Couch (31), Asylum TV (31), Noise TV (SBS), The Loft (31) RADIO: Triple J, Triple R, Syn, PBS, Community Radio (Various), Internet Radio (Various) DVD: ISurf Issue 6 DVD (features 'Sense' video), ISurf Issue 3 DVD (features 'Flood' and 'Sense'), Australian Surfing Life 'North Shore' DVD (features 'Flood')
