History

[edit | edit source]

Gut Health was formed in 2021 by vocalist Athina Uh oh and bassist Adam Markmann,[3] who began writing when stuck together during the coronavirus pandemic in Melbourne.[1] The band initially practiced and recorded in a storage unit in Brunswick,[1] leading to the release of their debut EP, Electric Party Chrome Girl and lead single "Inner Norm" in 2022.[4] Further singles, "The Recipe and "Uh oh", were released in 2023.[5][6] The band's debut album, Stiletto, was released in October 2024. Stiletto received praise from Clash,[7] and NME,[8] and was listed by Rolling Stone as the eighth best Australian album of 2024.[9] The album was announced in July 2024 with the release of a single, "Cool Moderator", a song about "youthful rebellion", and featured a music video co-directed by Athina Uh oh and Renee Kypriotis.[2][10]

In 2025, the band took home the award for 'Best Independent Punk Album or EP' in the Australian Independent Record Labels Association (AIR) Awards for their debut album Stiletto,[11] while Rolling Stone Magazine named the band in their Future of Music 2025 list,[12] nominated them for two awards ('Breakthrough Artist' and 'Reader's Choice') and featured Stiletto in their '100 Best Australian Albums of the 2020s So Far' list at #39.[13] Stiletto was also nominated for the 2025 Australian Music Prize 'Album of the Year' award [14]

Between 2023 and 2025, the band toured with Primal Scream,[15] while also playing with acts like Hiatus Kaiyote, Otoboke Beaver, Tropical Fuck Storm and The Black Lips. They showcased at Reeperbahn Festival and SXSW Sydney, played festivals like Dark Mofo, London Calling, Nox Orae, RISING and Meredith Music Festival, and embarked on three European tours.

In August 2025 the band revealed a standalone single, "Beat to Beat", the first new music from the band since the release of Stiletto.[16]
