Two-piece indie pop-rock band This Way North have an appreciation for open space and adventure.

They are currently touring in support of their debut album ‘Punching Underwater’ (Feb 8) featuring big harmonies and rich melodies plus guests such as Inuit throat singer Christine Tootoo, Ainslie Wills (who co-produced) Tuckshop Ladies, Little Wise and Xani.

Full of rapturous nostalgia, This Way North’s music takes you from moody, tremolo-tinged heart-tuggers to pounding driving alt-psych rock through a sonic landscape of reverb-soaked guitars and rolling rhythms. With odes to 90’s rock sitting on air-tight grooves and full, cinematic spaciousness, This Way North’s music is a portal to summer festivals, their love affair with the road, and an open invitation to turn up the volume and let loose.

Previously named Music Victoria’s Best Regional Act, they have continued their rise supporting artists such as, Vika and Linda Bull, Ash Grunwald and Kate Ceberano.
