Announcing their new signing to UNFD is where Short Stack's year really took off...
2021 has seen the band bury their heads into recording their forthcoming, newly announced album Maybe There’s No Heaven, drop their heaviest single to date ('Burn You Down') and score a slot on their first heavy/alternative festival, UNIFY Gathering - it's almost #SwaySwayCirclePit time baby!!!
While next year looks set to be an even bigger year for the best looking band in Australia, frontman Shaun Diviney sat down with us to discuss his personal favourite tunes from the past year. Anyone else heard Bo Burnham before? Dare you to give it a listen after reading Shaun's Year In Review...

LAST GIG YOU PLAYED BEFORE COVID HIT?
We played a few songs at AM//PM 2 days before lockdown. Our last proper show was the Tivoli in 2016.

HOW DID YOU STAY BUSY THROUGHOUT THE PAST TWO YEARS?
We worked on our new album! It was a blessing in disguise. We surrounded ourselves with the best team we’ve ever had and ensured all of the music we created was the best we’ve done.
