"While I'm listening to the newest album from Datura4, I can easily imagine it's 1972. High on the Low Brow would fit comfortably in a set that included ZZ Top, Cactus, Thin Lizzy, Deep Purple, and Led Zeppelin of that time."

"Any discussion about Datura4 will focus on its frontman/founder Dom Mariani. Although not a world-renowned, or even familiar, name to all but the most dedicated rock fan, Mariani is an award-winning icon of the Australian roots music scene. He has led, or been involved with, a dizzying array of bands over a career extending back to the early 80s."

We spent the day at our local laundromat meeting the regulars and making a music video. Our new clip will drop soon. Watch this space!

'Getting Through' is the second single from "High on the Low Brow" released June 19 thru Alive Naturalsound Records!

Dirty Laundry, released on the 9th of May, is the first taste of Datura4's upcoming new album High On The Low Brow released on Alive Naturalsound Records June 19, 2026.

We finally made it to the mighty rock and had a ball smashing through an hour's worth for you lot. Big thanks to the kids in the pit and the Billions crew for putting on the best fest in the southern hem - you’re all alright.

Drivin' to the big rock with Dom, cranking some cool sounds on the way. #maxmerritt #andthemeteors @westernunionman

Dom's new single 'Apple of Life' just dropped and it packs a mighty crunch Crank it loud and pre-order the album now from Alive Naturalsound and head to It's Psychedelic Baby Magazine for more low-down on the track.

The Melody Maker’s been missing in action the last couple records because it’s been behind glass. Good to have it back for a few rounds before it goes back on display.

Super session at Revolver studio laying down a couple numbers for the next record. Thanks to Toni Italiano at Pet Rock Media for hitting record.

Set all your dials to eleven and enjoy this scorching slab of cosmic twang from Dom Mariani's upcoming self-titled solo album out soon thru Alive Naturalsound. Filmed on location at the old Port Beach wheat storage facility in North Fremantle, West Australia, with cameras and direction from Jon Tarry and featuring D4's own Jozef Grech on bass along with good pals Peter Busher on acoustic, Luke Dux on pedal steel and Salv Di Criscito on drums.

Thanks Linda Dunjey Photography for the captures at Lyric's Underground for the James Baker Benefit.

Wishing everyone a West Coast Cosmic Christmas and a blazing 2025!

Two Perth music luminaries, James Baker (Hoodoo Gurus, Beasts of Bourbon, Scientists) and Dom Mariani - Official (The Stems, DM3, Datura4 Band) have come together to record a wonderful new single under the moniker of The James Baker Beat

Big thanks to TONE Scott at Goldmine magazine for the great rave for Invisible Hits in his December 2023 edition of Eclectic Discoveries (No.9). Cheers

Had an absolute blast sharing the stage last night with Dave Hole at The Regal Theatre for the West Australian Music Industry Awards.

The Neanderthal Jam Tour through Spain and Italy was an epic jaunt and definitely one for the rock of ages.

Our first ever compilation album “Invisible Hits” is available to order right here RIGHT NOW through Alive Naturalsound.

Wonzo the great says that’s a wrap. Our final show at Villa Abrizzi Marini in an old converted Armenian church.

First gig in Italy. It's always great to play at Raindogs in Savona. Thanks to the Raindogs crew and the punters for coming to our show.

Big thanks to TONE Scott from Goldmine magazine outta New York City for the kind words about Neanderthal Jam, who describes it as being "one of the best classic rock infused records of this century." Cheers!
