Sunk Loto

Sunk Loto are an Australian alternative metal band formed in Gold Coast, Queensland in 1997. The band's founding members are Dane Brown on drums, his brother Jason Brown on vocals, Luke McDonald on guitar and Sean Van Gennip on bass guitar. Sunk Loto signed a recording contract with Sony Music Australia when the members' average age was 16 years. They released two studio albums, Big Picture Lies (13 October 2000) and Between Birth and Death (17 November 2003); both reached the ARIA Albums Chart top 50. The group disbanded in December 2007, and after a 15-year hiatus the original members re-formed the band in 2022 with coaxing of a meme page dedicated to them and with big public response, completed a sold out East Coast tour. In 2023, Luke McDonald was fired from the band. Musician Rohan Stevenson joined the band as the guitarist shortly before embarking on the Between Birth and Death 20th Anniversary Tour.
