The Pigs are a musical family that proves the old adage: the family that plays together, stays together. Known for their raucous energy and distinct bluegrass sound, this "hillbilly" outfit has become an unstoppable force in the Australian music scene. While they claim to have played together in the mountains of Australia for hundreds of years, the band officially emerged from the remote outback to form in Sydney in 2004, quickly amassing a trotting herd of devoted fans.

For over a decade, The Pigs have built a reputation as the band that makes pop songs sound "just as they were meant to be"—bluegrass style. They have released four albums featuring their signature banjo-driven twists on hits by artists as diverse as Beyoncé, Powderfinger, John Farnham, INXS, and Kanye West. However, their latest chapter sees them unleashing their first-ever all-original album, the curiously titled Hillbilly Synthesiser.

Highlights of The Pigs’ on Australian highways include standout performances at the nation's premier events, including the Tamworth Country Music Festival, Gympie Music Muster, Woodford Folk Festival, and the Deni Ute Muster. Their infectious appeal has also taken them to the small screen, with appearances on Spicks and Specks, Studio 10, Rage, and a semi-final run on Australia’s Got Talent.

The Pigs’ popularity extends well beyond their homeland. They have toured Europe, bringing their unique brand of entertainment to festivals like Skagen in Denmark and Schaubudensommer in Germany. Whether singing about "Macho Feuchtigkeitscreme" for German audiences or tearing up stages at home, The Pigs continue to prove they are one of Australia's most entertaining live acts.
