Look out for the new site:

Now Live


SmashThatComputer has ended it's lengthy run.
It's been great fun. Thanks to everyone who looked at the site.
LATEST UPDATES:
THE END OF THE SITE IS NOW HERE. See ya....
I am keeping this stuff below up until this hosting runs out.
The Dawks are back in the studio! We have just completed 4 days, where we have recorded the basic tracking for 13 brand new songs for your listening pleasure. There is even one cover song....a classic from the 1960's that has been given the "Dawks" treatment. It's been popular in our live set, so we thought "Why not?"

Details and photos will be up here: here's the first one of the drum setup in the studio! The actual album will hopefully be ready to inflict on the world in early 2025.

In the meantime you can check out our website at www.thedawks.co.nz

Here is the link for the Indiegogo campaign to release "Songs From The Riverhouse" by Robert Vaughn & The Shadows on vinyl. This is a one-off opportunity to own an extremely limited edition of this great album from the 1990's! UPDATE: Campaign now ended.

Latest single from "The Dawks" is now out on Bandcamp!

Check out the release poster for the new single by Hamilton, New Zealand band "The Dawks"! They are a 4 piece band writing all original music influenced by Punk/Adjacent, Rock and much more. Their first single ("ISM") is available on Spotify - and now on Bandcamp. The next single "Flat Out Bat" was released on January 25th - click on the image for the video! We just released another single called "Hate Me" this last month. Now we have a new one out called "Democracy Dies". It's about a certain American ex-President. WARNING: Explicit language.
