Markus Hamence is in The Jungle Room with Alice Barker of the Ukulele Death Squad for the NEW show The Curse of The Nipple Tape playing at the 2026 Adelaide Fringe
Australia’s most outrageous and genre-defying ukulele collective, Ukulele Death Squad, return this summer with a brand-new live a cappella double single release,The Curse of the Nipple Tape and Australian tour not to be missed.
Recorded entirely live in studio and delivered with the group’s trademark theatricality, razor-sharp harmonies and mischievous humour, The Curse of the Nipple Tape,”captures the Squad at their most unhinged and unstoppable, stripping everything back to raw performance and gloriously unwholesome storytelling.
The double single featuring two live a cappella tracks,“Fuck The Man” and “Lowlands Away“,was recorded with the immediacy, spontaneity and musical interplay that has made the band a word-of-mouth sensation. Across both recordings, audiences can expect lush harmonies, comedic chaos, storytelling theatrics and emotional sincerity that lands when least expected. Links, media assets and video content will be shared later this week.
Meet Ukulele Death Squad – the band no one can define, but everyone wants to see live.
Celebrating the release of rollicking sea shanty tracks, the Squad brings nautical nonsense to South Australia. Like modern-day bards, these unhinged musical pirates – armed with ukuleles, brass, and questionable fashion choices – lead a singalong of pirate ballads, foot-stomping shanties, and heart-warming belters.
Awarded Best Music Act at Adelaide & Edinburgh Fringe, their high-octane shows blend dark humour, raunchy antics, and storytelling with folk, soul, funk, R&B, and pop.
★★★★½ “Swagger, style and a sense of humour” InDaily.
