Dear Seattle

Heart Attack Man

Fresh off the back of nabbing an **ARIA #1 Australian Album** and **ARIA #4 Album** placement for their third studio album **_TOY_**, Sydney’s **Dear Seattle** now announces national tour dates to celebrate the record with fans this May. 

  

With the release of _TOY_, Dear Seattle achieved new heights as a band. Already solidified as one of the country’s best indie rock names, the four-piece broadened songwriting horizons and pushed themselves with the creation of this new album. A striking blend of riffs, melody and matured observations of relationships, growth and evolution, _TOY_ captures Dear Seattle at a brilliant new creative peak.

  

Featuring singles **‘Evergreen’**, **‘Say What You Want’** and **‘Counting Hours’**, _TOY_ landed with instant impact – achieving a whopping **50,000** streams on Spotify alone upon release day, _TOY_ expanded their reach exponentially with this album, their first-ever **Top 10** appearance in the ARIA Chart making _TOY_ also coming in as the only Australian-made album in the **ARIA Top 50** on release week.

  

Now set to take the album around the country in May, Dear Seattle are primed for their best shows yet, stating, “_We’ve been putting in the hard yards to ensure this tour is the absolute best you’ve ever seen \[from\] DS. We always put in everything, but this time we wanna push the boundaries of what we’ve done in the past and make this album tour the most memorable one yet. We can’t wait to see you there!”_

  

The Australian tour will see Dear Seattle joined by Cleveland, Ohio punk rock group, **Heart Attack Man**. Since 2014, the band has been consistently defining their style of music by sharp and poignant lyricism, matched with an urgent and natural sound. 

  

In 2023, the band released their third album, **_Freak Of Nature_**, a record that highlighted the chemistry within the band and moreover, a sense of rejuvenation that has permeated throughout their process. This year, Australian fans will finally see Heart Attack Man bring it to life – the anticipation is mutual, says the band, _"We’re stoked to be heading to Australia for the first time ever. Hope to see you all there!”_ 

  

Also joining Dear Seattle on their latest national run will be Adelaide pop-punk duo **TOWNS**, and Melbourne indie-rock artist, **LUCKY**. 

  

For TOWNS, their profile has continued to grow impressively since making their debut in 2018 with the track **‘Television’**. Blending a love for ‘90s pop and rock, with a refreshing take on fired up songwriting and arrangements, the duo has evolved into a pure force, recently evidenced on **_sentimental slowdown_**, their debut album from 2024. 

  

Emerging Melbourne indie force Lucky has been developing a strong local following since the release of her track **‘Never Know’** in 2024. Perfect for fans of artists including beabadoobee and Day Wave, Lucky’s love for this type of music has created excitement around her own original steps forward.

  

  

  

_“TOY is a listen which doubles up a body of lighthearted bops and a springboard for change; it shows how we truly grow when being most honest with ourselves.”_

**KERRANG**

  

_“Walking a delicate passage of love, loss, addiction and nostalgia, the album serves as a means of reflection and introspection, the four-piece creating a collection of “relatable anthems” that’ll have you screaming at the top of your lungs at one end, and huddled into a fetal position in the corner of the room at the other.”_

**THE MUSIC**

  

_“...each song ridiculously memorable, short, sweet to the point, an album that’ll shake you to your core and when it feels like the world is swallowing you up maybe it’ll give you the courage to try harder to get back some of that magic you lost. there really is nothing stopping them, star quality through and through.”_
