Ocean Alley Announce Massive ‘Love Balloon' 2026 Australian Tour Dates

Ocean Alley are hitting the road in honour of their forthcoming fifth studio album, Love Balloon. The Northern Beaches-born indie-rock juggernauts have given fans plenty of notice too, flagging a celebratory five-date headline tour for January 2026 in some monster-sized venues and with some appropriately supersized support acts. The six-piece will be kicking things off in Melbourne's Catani Gardens, before heading to Brisbane Showgrounds and then The Domain in Sydney, and will be joined at those three shows by UK rockers Nothing But Thieves, US sonic shapeshifters Rainbow Kitten Surprise and South Coast singer-songwriter Ruby Fields. The tour will then head to Fremantle's Esplanade Park before wrapping up at Margaret River's 3 Oceans Winery, with Wollongong surf/garage duo Skeggs, Ruby Fields and Perth indie-rockers Smol Fish on support duties for those two dates. To boot, all five shows will be running as licensed/all ages events. Ocean Alley's forthcoming Love Balloon LP follows on from 2022's Low Altitude Living, and is set for release on Friday, September 19th via Community Music. 'The album explores the many layered dimensions of love,' said Lachlan Galbraith – the band's keyboardist – in a press statement. 'Not just the cinematic kind where you're falling head over heels, but the full spectrum: joy, hurt, discomfort and disappointment. Let's call it the river of love; whether it's with a partner, a friend, or family, you never know when it'll get deep, go shallow, or suddenly change course. It's such a force, you have to just surrender to its current.' The band recorded Love Balloon with producer Nick DiDia, which marks their first time making an album without longtime collaborator Callum Howell. It was recorded at Brooklet Recording, the Byron Bay studio DiDia co-owns with former Powderfinger frontman Bernard Fanning. The recently-released title track 'Love Balloon' is the third single to be lifted from the record, following last year's 'Tangerine' and 'Left Of The Dealer' back in February.
