Update - 26 May, 2023: With the first Sydney show sold out, Ocean Alley have added a second date in the Harbour City. Scroll down for the details.
After moving crowds recently at BASSINTHEGRASS and the regional series Groovin The Moo, Ocean Alley will tour nationally this spring.
The dates are in support of their 2022 album 'Low Altitude Living', and the indie rockers are bringing their good mates, funk-hip hop outfit Winston Surfshirt.The run of shows will kick off in October at Sapphire Coast's new destination event Wanderer Festival (minus WS) before landing in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane.
Ocean Alley have had a massive 18 months of touring that has also seen two significant anniversaries: five years since the release of their breakthrough record 'Chiaroscuro', and ten years since cult classic EP 'Yellow Mellow' dropped.
The band have also released a cinematic video clip for 'Low Altitude Living' track 'Lapwing'.
"We wanted this clip to feel as obscure and unpredictable as possible," Ocean Alley says. "It has a dream-like presentation where everything does and doesn't make sense at the same time.
"Over the course of the song, the protagonist encounters physical, social and psychological obstacles – but viewers are given space to create their own interpretations about what they think they see and the way it relates to their own personal experiences."
Tickets on sale from 12pm EST on 26 May.
