Syndicate was an Australian rock ensemble based in Sydney, active during the years 2010 to 2011. Under the Sony Music Australia label, they issued a single studio album in 2011 that reached number 20 on the ARIA Charts. The group also served as the supporting act for Alice Cooper during his 2011 tour across Australia.

History

Formed by five musicians from Sydney, Syndicate secured a contract with Sony Music before heading to Los Angeles to compose and record their first album. Portions of the recording sessions were held at Tommy Lee's private studio located in Calabasas. Lead vocalist Greg Agar characterized their time in Los Angeles as "incredible," emphasizing their dedication to studio production aimed at achieving their objectives.

After returning to Australia towards the end of 2010, Syndicate released their initial single, "Shout," which debuted at number 46 on the ARIA Charts, selling 3,039 copies. Their follow-up single, "All My Life," was released in May 2011.

The band unveiled their self-titled debut album in July 2011, which climbed to number 20 on the ARIA Charts. This release was accompanied by a nationwide tour.
