final night of the bliss tour at @anitastheatrethirroul ✨
wrapping up a year of anniversary feels and closing the chapter by ripping a new song live (!!) for the first time in many moons.
mega thanks to our sound lord Grady Henshaw, stage technician Michael Helmsy Helmstedt, Nick Hatzakos on monitors, and David McMahon on lights. A crack team of tech wizards and gentlemen of rock whomst we doth love 🏹
thanks also to our mystical opening band @my.megafauna and to @greatsouthernnights for letting us traverse the magic coastline of Dharawal country with our music.
we’ve loved every minute of this reunion jaunt thanks to all of you 💜 thanks for sharing the love stories and tattoos and multi generations of soundtracked moments in the rooms.
we’re starting to join some dots toward something new and time will tell where that energy will lead us but for now we feel really grateful and lucky to have spent a turn around the sun with you all xx

Everything starts and ends with our mamas 💜
Ruth, Robyn, Carolyn — here at Anita’s on Friday, showing up for us as you’ve done our whole lives.
And as we wrap this anniversary tour we want to note how this love is the foundation of our band adventure. From day 1 to 20 yrs later you’ve offered nothing but hype mama joy and deep investment. Cooking post-rehearsal feasts, telling us to wear shoes on stage, sneaking posters off band room walls for posterity, scrapbooking every street press mention.
Thank you for the years of unadulterated encouragement and practical facilitation. Letting us rehearse downstairs while the house shook with bass frequencies, offering up the family van as the Cloud Mobile, giving up your lounge rooms for us to record, traversing Kings Cross at midnight for random weeknight shows. Driving us to the airport at all hours.
Unwavering, unconditional and quietly delivering a Masterclass in the gritty long-haul business of applied love. We love you more than we say and feel lucky every day we get to spend together.
Happy mama day xxx

THIS FRIDAY, pysch-rock masters Cloud Control join Boy & Boy at WFAC! This Blue Mountains band soundtracked a generation, and recently reunited to celebrate 15 years of their debut album ‘Bliss Release’.
Alongside Cloud Control, Boy & Bear will be joined by Perth-based singer-songwriter Whiskey Jack. With folk, alt-country, and Americana influences, he crafts a distinctive sound that pushes boundaries. Named after the grey jay, a clever bird of the North American wilderness, his music captures everyday beauty with heartfelt storytelling and introspection.
