Rik (guitarist) / Si (guitarist & vocals) / Stu (bass) / Oz (Drums)
Forming in 2009 up to 2015 - Violet Bones was the band and the boys that I grew up with, laughed with, cried with and made music with for many enjoyable years. Starting with our punk-rock roots and slowly moving towards an indie garage-rock vibe in later years. Check us out on all the mainstream music platforms. I hope you enjoy the music as much as we did.
