2023 has been an incredibly busy year for Hockey Dad. The Windang duo have toured the UK, Europe, SOLD OUT the massive ‘Hockey Fields’ Australian tour with good mate Ruby Fields, made a quick stop for a show at surfing mecca Uluwatu in Indonesia before heading to the US for an 11 date tour through August and September.
Somehow, they found some time to write and record some new music. The first fruits have arrived from those sessions with new single ‘Still Have Room’ out now. The video for ‘Still Have Room’ was shot locally around Wollongong and the steelworks with director Jamieson Kerr. The gritty working class heist story, set sometime before smoking was banned on airplanes, looks to be a storyline that may see a part two for another video.
‘Still Have Room’ is the first song to come from a planned new album, the band’s 4th long player, due for release in 2024. It follows the #2 ARIA Album ‘Brain Candy’ released in 2020.
Australian fans are in for a treat when Hockey Dad kick off their East Coast Regional tour on Thursday 2nd November at Coffs Harbour’s Hoey Moey with a couple of new songs planned to get a run live. Special guests for most shows are Crocodylus and The Belair Lip Bombs.
