Kane Lehanneur
Today, Australian six-piece Ocean Alley announce a triumphant return to the UK, playing Academy, Manchester on 20th September 2024 and London’s Roundhouse on 21st September 2024. Tickets are on sale from 10am on Thursday 7th December HERE.
Having released their latest album Low Altitude Living in autumn of last year, Ocean Alley embarked on their headline tour in summer 2023, playing London’s iconic The Troxy in June, having already sold out the Roundhouse in 2022. The news of a return to UK soil in September 2024 comes as their 6 x platinum hit ‘Confidence’, taken from their 2018 breakthrough Chiaroscuro, has enjoyed 1063% increase of average daily streams on Spotify, and a 2571% increase on Apple Music, initially led by its use in the Behind Every Girl TikTok trend.
The audio has since been used in over 110,000 creations spawning billions of views and over a million track streams a day. For the first time, this week the track has landed in the US Billboard Singles Charts for Rock & Alternative, also making waves in the UK where it’s #6 on the Independent Single Chart & #2 on the Independent Breakers Single Chart, as well as #2 on the UK & Ireland Spotify Viral Charts.
Speaking on the news of their forthcoming UK show, the band say: “We love playing in the UK, the crowd always brings it, and we can’t wait to be back in 2024! We’ll have more shows announced for the UK & EUR very soon as well!”
One of Australia’s most exciting musical exports, rock outfit Ocean Alley have taken the world by storm with their dynamic live performances, infectious melodies and faultless musicianship. Across four critically acclaimed albums, the six-piece – comprised of Baden Donegal (vocals), Angus Goodwin (guitar), Lach Galbraith (keys/vocals), Mitch Galbraith (guitar), Tom O’Brien (drums) and Nic Blom (bass) – have never wavered in their dedication to their craft, always grounded by a genuine passion for the creative exploration of music. Operating as a proudly independent band, their catalogue amounts to more than 800 million streams, with over 80,000 tickets sold globally across their headline shows in 2023 alone.
