History
The Debrays began their music career as child street performers at ages 8 and 9 () in South Africa, singing while selling hand made soap for charity, from where they acquired their band name. One result of this recording session was the inclusion of a track ("Boys Boys—Mix 2") on the Japanese compilation disc Do The Independence (And Bridge Build Burn By Yourself.) (2009). They also acquired pink, Hello Kitty branded acoustic guitars as a result of sponsorship by Marshall. At ages 14 and 15 (), following interest in the song on the Japanese compilation disc, they were signed to Universal Records and national tours. In 2015, the band took up an offer to tour the UK, quickly finishing their debut album as a punk band, Calls For Rebellion, The single Bad Bitch was also recorded and released in 2016. It was written two days after the stage attack in Hastings of the previous year. This was included as a bonus track on the Rejects album (2017). Second punk album Rejects was released in 2017. Hugh Guiland awarded the album 6/10 in Vive Le Rock magazine, noting that although there were "no major music revelations to be found here, admittedly," nonetheless there was "an attitudinal swerving of unwavering fuck-you hard rock, unstintingly high on the energy levels ... sometimes you've just got to let it all out." Interviewed by Alexandra Hawkins for Louder Than War, the duo explained their philosophy: "We create Revolt Rock music that provides a space for people to celebrate their uniqueness and to stop taking shit from a seemingly heartless judgmental society. Both our stage shows and music addresses and encourages people to get out of their shells and forgo labels that society has imposed on them. Our message is all about freedom and being fearless enough to be a non-conformist and proud of it and if it makes you a society's reject then embrace it!" The 2017 tour used several session drummers, including Sam Ogden for some gigs in the last half of the tour. He has also played with the band extensively on the 2018 and 2019 tours. The band spent most of 2018 on the Stinks Like Punk tour of UK and Europe. Most of 2019 was spent on the Sniff My Strap tour of UK and Europe. 2019 also saw the release of a double-length third punk album, Elephant in the Room. June 2022 saw the release of the fifth studio album (their fourth as an alt-rock band), In My Skin. In May 2023 they commenced the Love Potion tour of UK, USA, Europe, and Japan. In May 2024 they commenced the Wild At Heart tour across the UK and Europe, lasting until October of that year. In November 2025, the band support Wednesday13 for six dates. ==Band members==
