RELAYS Release A New Single ‘Get Free’🤘🏽⚡️
RELAYS could have released one of our own songs but we’d rather put out a studio version of a Relays live favourite instead.
The Vines 2002 banger ‘Get Free’ 🌪️
So why this song?
Well when Shann received his DX of Asperger’s in 2009 (Now respectively referred to as Autism per the DSM-5) he researched and found out that Craig Nicholls from The Vines also had this said condition.
So this is partly why Relays pay homage to this classic OZ rock banger! 💣
RELAYS Get Free Single Launch!

RELAYS 🔨
Formed in late 2023, Relays are an autistic punk band making noise in all the right ways. In under two years, they’ve dropped a run of raw, non-PC singles that have clocked 40,000+ Spotify streams and earned a reputation as one of the most unpredictable live acts in the Australian underground.
Fronted by autistic, ADHD and dyslexic producer/guitarist Shann Lions, with Mik Weird on drums and El Wellard on bass, Relays balance chaos with precision — blistering punk urgency wrapped in DIY spirit.
Their self-titled debut album, recorded live to two-inch tape at Head Gap with Finn Keane (Wilco, Courtney Barnett), landed in October 2024 released Independently on cassette and vinyl. The release drew international radio play, tastemaker playlists, glowing press, and a slot at Chopped Festival alongside Cosmic Psychos and Delivery.
Since then, Relays have ripped through a 23-date national tour, supported the legendary You Am I (July 2025), and just wrapped their sophomore LP — funded by Creative Victoria’s New Music Works — set for release in mid-2026.
Before that arrives, Relays are keeping it loud with a feral cover of The Vines’ “Get Free” (Out Independently On October 30, 2025), plus shows with The Meanies, The Smith Street Band, and an All Ages Desert Highways gig on November 8, 2025.
Raw, relentless, and impossible to ignore — Relays are here to rip the paint off Australian punk.
