The Grates

The Grates were a three-piece indie rock band formed in Brisbane in 2002. They were brought to national attention when a demo of their single, "Trampoline" in 2004, which received airplay on radio station Triple J. Their first two albums, Gravity Won't Get You High (2006) and Teeth Lost, Hearts Won (2008), both reached the ARIA Albums Chart top 10. Since May 2012 Hodgson and Patterson are also proprietors of Southside Tea Room, a cafe and bar, in Morningside; the couple also married in November that year. More information
