"This New Zealand band of good-lookin' rockers sizzle on the guitar with a hint of Bon Jovi on valium. Good, solid Rock-n-Roll."


"When Malone hit the stage, we were taken from the Altitude and thrown into one of those massive stadium concerts that sell-out within minutes.."

Not new to the game Malone are now based in Wellington and along with their hot new act comes a new bass player. Front man, Shayne, describes Malone's new sound: "Take The Feelers and mix it with some Opshop, add a pound of U2 with a teaspoon of Coldplay, stir in Bon Jovi with a dollop of Motley Crue; and finally, sprinkle some Pink Floyd, Greenday and Linkin park and you will arrive at this original bands powerful, catchy and hook-laden songs".


Shayne initially fronted his own band under his name 'Shayne Malone' and released the album 'Real Life Games'. Real Life Games has been appropriately described as 'Bon Jovi meets The Feelers with a good old kick in the balls'. The video for the first single, 'Touch My Soul', has received over 340,000 views to date, which makes them one of the most viewed videos of all time in New Zealand.


Among their many accomplishments, Malone have also opened for Opshop at Shake the Lake in 2008 and performed an Auckland showcase for the legendary Ray Columbus.


With their new album due for release in July '09, Malone will embark on establishing one of the best live shows in NZ, and promoting their world class act wherever they go.
