Mach Pelican were a punk rock band formed in Perth, Australia in 1996. In 1998, they relocated to Melbourne, Australia. They announced their farewell tour in July 2007, and played their final show in Tokyo, Japan on September 17, 2007.[1]
Biography
The band was formed by three Japanese students who were studying in Perth in 1996. After touring extensively, Mach Pelican moved to Melbourne in 1998.
In eleven years, Mach Pelican played 800 shows, touring with bands such as The Buzzcocks, Radio Birdman, Rancid, The Hard Ons, Guitar Wolf, Supersnazz, The Donnas, You Am I and The Spazzys.[2]
2006 was a huge year for the three crazy rockers with their 10 year anniversary, release of their third studio album Radio Action on newly formed label Bop Records, touring Japan, as well as their non stop coast-to-coast shows across Australia.
Mach Pelican opened the 2006 Falls Festival in Lorne to a crowd of over 15,000 attendees. The band also played at half time in the 2007 Community Cup in St Kilda to a crowd of over 20,000 spectators.
The band's split in 2007 was a result of personal differences and immigration problems.[3]
