24.01.2022 Gohd. Another C-Virus related post. Whilst the risk of contracting this dickhead of a virus is LOW, the next few months will be an interesting time and we all need to do our bit. We ask everyone coming to the studio:... 1. Please reconsider your jam if you are feeling crook. Please! 2. Make sure youre band mates are healthy before committing to a session. Please! 3. Wash your hands and use the hand sanitiser we have provided. Please! Your next jam is not more important than your own health and of those around you. Pen Cap Chew is committed to doing our part over the next few months too: 1. All microphones, cables and mixers will be cleaned and sanitised. Everyday. Same goes with the kitchen, chairs, door handles etc. 2. Hand sanitiser will soon appear in every room. 3. Cancellation policy will be...cancelled...until further notice. We would rather you cancel than chance it. Please note that this policy still stands for no-shows. Stay safe, keep it real and look after each other. We are all in this together. If you have any queries, please reach out and we will do our best. X PCC

Pen Cap Chew has been fortunate enough to receive exclusive access to 300+ pairs for well below RRP.

Shoot us a message and we will pass on the details to the landing page. This is only going to last a week before the general public gets a go. This deal is exclusive to Pen Cap Chew bands and families! Happy Doc Marten-ing. ***Please note that sizes are limited - once they're gone, they are gone!

22.01.2022 Check out this excellent little live sess recorded at Pen Cap Chew by PCC stalwarts Incomplete. This band is by far one of, if not THE tightest bands in Perth. Period. And they probably play twice as fast as most other bands. Shout out sound engineer / producer Jordan Azor who captured this performance. La schmick. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=share&v=Jt7b_t-k5i8

22.01.2022 Hey everyone Our phone has karked it with the assistance of an overly energetic 16 month old who enjoys throwing things. And laughing at the consequences. Pure evil...but kinda cute too. So! If you need us, please reach out via Facebook messages. Should be back online tomorrow!... Pen Cap Chew

22.01.2022 We're really stoked to get behind this series of events! A massive shoutout to Bamboo Bookings for getting this up and running.

20.01.2022 Merry Christmas to all our Pen Cap Chew bands! Whether you've been spoilt with a new toy this Xmas, or perhaps you're trying to escape the crazy Aunty at lunch, or perhaps you just want to have some time out for yourself, we will be open for you everyday these holidays - including today! Much love... PCC See more

20.01.2022 2020 has meant a few changes for the way we live; yet, like the big ball of gas in the air, some things don't change. A bit like the hard working folk at WAM who continue to turn the wheels to promote and celebrate the diversity, depth and talent of the West Oz music scene. We're stoked to present the POP category this year with a total prize pool of $800 worth of PCC sessions being awarded to the top three. France and I would have liked to have dusted off matching red velve...t jacket combos to present this in person but alas, perhaps next year. Two days to go!

19.01.2022 Ill say it once, and Ill say it again - @psychedelicprncrumpets will take over the world. . Doctor Noggin Floggin and the Liquid Friends Festival on this Saturday @rosemount_hotel . Huuuuugeeee. . #wam #psychedelicporncrumpets #perthmusicscene #perthmusic #perthbands

18.01.2022 Young Aboriginal people are five times more likely to take their own lives than non-Aboriginal people. This is a sad and unsettling reality faced by many young people in our community. One of PCC favourites, all round good guy and front man of Fremantle band Claybird, Del B, is working with remote aboriginal communities to address mental health issues through music and will feature of the 730 Report tonight. ... Were stoked to get behind Del and the wider movement to address this issue. Del - youre a legend and an inspiration. Much love, PCC

16.01.2022 Merry merry everyone! We have had a few enquires from punters - no, I am not Tyrion Lannister; yes, I ate too much this Xmas (no, that shouldnt be a surprise); and yes, we are open every-single-day - including today! And dont forget our competition! Follow the instructions and youll go into the draw to win a WEEKs free studio rent! About as long as Ill need to get over my last meal.... Look after yourself, your friends and family - peace out. Pen Cap Chew

15.01.2022 Bands! Because we love to share the love... If youre thinking of getting band T-shirts together, consider heading over to the AS Colour website - some massive sales on stock.

Soon. -ish. *edit - there are limited sizes but we managed to cover most across a couple of different styles...

12.01.2022 Imma just gonna leave this here...

12.01.2022 Good evening / morning all! So I have come to the following conclusion:: If the wealth of talent coming through Pen Cap Chew is any indication of how well its going after 10 months, I reckon were doing fkn brilliantly.... From the Koi Child lads representin at SXSW and receiving an ARIA award nomination, to Pond playing at Coachella (!), to bands like POW!Negro, Hideous Sun Demon, Hunting Birds, Elli Schoen and Dream Rimmy playing huge festival stages like Southbound, GTM, Falls Festival and Laneway, to a multitude of bands doing national and international tours or releasing music to sold-out crowds, to a whole heap of PCC bands getting nominated for a whole heap of WAM awardsand thats really only scratching the surface. But to be perfectly honest, the achievements of these PCC bands dont get me half as stoked as witnessing the effort that goes into their craft behind closed doors. I get stoked on the bands, irrespective of who they are or whether they play to the bar staff, that have developed their own style over the weeks and months in the studios, the bands who sound tighter and tighter every jam or those who have been crafting a unique sound that they will be one day renowned for; the bands that will one day be all over RTR, ZZZ and Triple J, playing the massive festivals and headlining their own interstate and international tours. That gets me boyband hot under the collar. Honestly France and I are just stoked to witness it. Enough of that teary-eyed sheeeet, Im an absolute mess. In other news, me mate Rhi will continue to be at the helm for a couple more weeks. Annnnnnnnd t-shirts are coming, BIGGER rooms are being planned as well as a Pen Cap Chew Presents.gig. Yeeeeeoowwww PCC

11.01.2022 Pen Cap Chewers Get behind a good cause and listen to some amazing Fremantle artists!

11.01.2022 There bands that are hardworking; and then there is this band. INCOMPLETE. Pen Cap Chews stalwart punk band. No sheeet - next level dedication to their music and the scene. A massive congratulations to the band for all their hard work put into the album which all culminates this Saturday night in Northbridge! Big love!... Pen Cap Chew

11.01.2022 Pre-sales are going, going....nearly gone. Should be a sold out show so please grab a ticket or be there early. Doors open from 3pm, $15 pre-sale, $15 at the door before 730pm, $20 after 730 - if it hasnt sold out before. Yeooooowww! Should be a banger!

11.01.2022 Festival of the Chew. MASSIVE. Holey dooley - what an awesome night. Big up's to all the PCC bands that played the show - Hideous Sun Demon, Peter Bibby, Elli Shoen, Moana, Dan Howls, Fuzz Toads, Last Quokka, Moonlighter, Wave Wasabi, Montana Wildhack, Incomplete, transista and Lo Fire. Honestly, so stoked - every one of these acts were epic. A particular mention to a couple of artists that played their first shows (!) - Angie Colman and HOT SAND. Without doubt, their respect...ive trajectories are galactic. I've already been asked about the next one...Ku Ku Ka Chew? In short, yes its coming. But first!..we're cooking something else up...more to come.

09.01.2022 This is our new deluxe room! Weve gone to great lengths to blur the lines between jam room and studio space with this one. With less than 5% of the room having any parallel surfaces to engineered acoustic wall treatments, dual walls and doors, the latest PA from Allen & Heath and EV, Persian rugs and foldback as standard, were catering for the bands that want a professional and affordable place to write, rehearse and record.... This room would not exist were it not for @fosaxcustomdesign Hit us up if you want to try it out! PCC @georgeohfoster

09.01.2022 Good evening to the talented people of Pen Cap Chew, RE: DO PEOPLE EVEN USE THE YELLOW PAGES ANYMORE? If you've had the pleasure (?) of witnessing Dan waxing lyrical about the studio, music and Perth and everything in-between, chances are you've heard him carry on (and on and on) about Pen Cap Chew becoming a 'community' hub for the Fremantle / Perth music scene.... Creating a hub has, and always will be, the focus of the studio. With this in mindwere going to create a Pen Cap Chew services directory! If you or your business feel you have something to offer, we want to hear from you. We are chasing: - Freelance photographers - band, promo, album shoots - Producers / engineers - preproduction, writing, recording - Writers / journos - band bios, write-ups - Artists - single, EP, album art - Marketing - assistance with branding - Guitar techs - servicing, repair, setups - Shirt printing - well, you know, shirt printing This is about building the community around Pen Cap Chew and as such will be FREE for businesses looking to list. We only ask that you respect the studio and respect our clients. What do you reckon? Feel free to drop us a line and we can tee up a chat. PEN CAP CHEW www.pencapchewstudios.com

08.01.2022 Very stoked, very proud, very humbled to have been invited to speak on the panel for 'Music as a Healer: Staying Mentally Healthy with Music' at this year's WAMCon at the State Theatre Centre of WA. I will be sharing experiences of my own mental health journey that inevitably led to the creation of the Pen Cap Chew and the power of community in helping people with their own mental health challenges. Get amongst it!... Dan

08.01.2022 Kat Wilson Trio have taken Perth by storm, selling out venues over the last 6 months. Tonight theyre at Pen Cap Chew Studios getting ready for their single launch Sitting Alone at Rosemount Hotel this Saturday!

07.01.2022 We're proud to get behind an event that actively encourages the participation of women in the music scene, and which provides a platform that, for some parts of our community, is difficult to access. We look forward to a day where a female-only lineup is no longer a novelty. Equality is recognising that talent exists beyond social constructs; equality is promoting talent irrespective of its origins; equality is allowing talent to grow and flourish irrespective of race, age a...nd sex. So with all that said - get down to Clancy's Fish Pub Fremantle on Saturday night for Night of the Songbird - lets celebrate these amazing musicians and support our local, female artists as we push for more gender diversity in our music scene! Frankie, Lee Sappho's Love Thugs, Kat Wilson Trio #Femalemusicians #livemusic #infreo

03.01.2022 Oh man...this PLUS a public holiday? Stoked. So yes, feel free to book in! There will be restrictions on the number people allowed in each of the rooms to ensure social distancing (so, no you cant have 8 people in a small room). All surfaces are sanitised daily including mics, stands, mixers and speakers and weve used the time to have all the rooms drycleaned and aircon serviced and cleaned.... ...but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE consider the health and well-being of everyone around you - if youre feeling even remotely crook, please reconsider you jam. Even better, wait a week. Or more. We are still all in this together. Much love and thank you PCC
