The Wombats

Secret Sounds is excited to welcome back chart-topping, platinum-selling indie heroes The Wombats to their home away from home in September 2025! Set to light up stages at headline shows in Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney, whilst also making an appearance at SummerSalt Festival in regional areas. The beloved band will arrive to our shores ready to play a stack of new tracks from their hotly anticipated sixth studio album, Oh! The Ocean, set for release on 14 February 2025. Since they emerged as leading lights of the late-‘00s indie rock scene with 2007 debut A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation, frontman Murph, bassist Tord Øverland Knudsen and drummer Dan Haggis have maintained an incredible upward momentum. 2011’s electro-flecked second album This Modern Glitch made them Top Ten regulars; 2015’s third Glitterbug saw them embraced by the TikTok generation, with ‘Greek Tragedy’ a viral hit several times over. By 2018’s Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life they’d stepped up to arenas and 2022’s Fix Yourself, Not the World consolidated their unstoppable rise with the band’s first #1 album, seeing them reach over 2.5 billion streams.
