Biography

Royal Headache, an Australian band that emerged in 2008 from Western Sydney's punk scene, blended garage punk with '60s soul-pop influences to create a high-energy, melodic sound. Led by vocalist Shogun and known for their explosive live performances, the band released two albums, including their acclaimed self-titled debut in 2011 and the follow-up "High" in 2015. Despite disbanding in 2017, their legacy endures, with the 2024 live album "Live in America" showcasing their chaotic brilliance.

Infusing their punk roots with Motown-inspired melodies, Royal Headache quickly gained recognition with their self-produced 7" and debut LP released on R.I.P. Society in 2011. Produced by Mikey Young, the band's music received widespread acclaim, leading to tours in Europe and the United States. Despite lineup changes and subsequent disbandment in 2017, their impact persisted, culminating in the release of "Live in America" in 2024, featuring live recordings that capture the band's electrifying essence.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories.

Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers.

Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low
