The Potbelleez - 'Dont Hold Back' (frenetic)

Friday 4th April 2008

Release Date: 5th May (digital) / 12th May (physical)

The Potbelleez are one of Australia's most in-demand acts. "Don't Hold Back" spent an incredible 17 weeks as no.1 in the ARIA dance charts and 22 weeks in the ARIA Top 40 national singles chart, peaking top 5, which took the single "platinum" selling over 70,000 units.

The Potbelleez are a musical tour de force, consisting of DJ-producers and founding members Dave Goode and Jonny Sonic, sassy singer Blue and Ilan 'Ikid' Kidron, the voice behind 'Don't Hold Back'. Dave and Jonny, who are both Irish lads, landed in Sydney Australia in 2002, looking for a new start in the Antipodes. The electric Blue joined the pair in 2005, with Kidron making his entrance in 2006.

Combining Dave & Jonny's punchy electro-laced beats, with guitar-licked summer sonics and Kidron's captivating vocals, "Don't Hold Back" is a stunning piece of dance music perfection and the kind of special offering that demanded people sit up and take notice of this rising Australian talent.
