SAFIA

SAFIA - which consists of Ben Woolner (Vocals/Keys), Michael Bell (Drums) and Harry Sayers (Guitar/Keys) - first began transporting listeners to new worlds in 2013 with their breakout single, “Listen to Soul, Listen to Blues.” The track racked up 15 million streams on Spotify, cracked the Top 10 on the Australian Independent Singles chart, and helped garner invitations to support superstars like Lorde and Disclosure on the road. The band followed it up with a series of similarly successful singles including "Counting Sheep" (which has now amassed over 700M streams in China) before releasing their 2016 debut album, ‘Internal,’ to rave reviews. The record landed at #2 on the ARIA chart, earned the trio sold out international headline tours as well as arena dates with Twenty One Pilots, and grew the band into a live, radio and streaming juggernaut (to date, the band has amassed over 200 million audio streams).

Their sophomore album 'Story's Start or End' was released in 2019, followed by a sold out AUS theatre tour and blistering festival appearances at Splendour, Wildlands & Concrete & Grass (China) to name a few. Euphoric single 'Starlight' achieved Gold certification in AUS and #15 most added at US Radio (NACC).

2022 saw the release of single 'Falling Down', which quickly become triple j's #1 Most Played and was warmly embraced by fans - as seen at their sold out intimate shows in Dec 2022.
