Dear Seattle at Smokey Dan’s

ONLINE SALES HAVE STOPPED. TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE ON THE DOOR.

Sydney punk rockers Dear Seattle are hitting the road this August, announcing an extensive regional Australian headline tour with very special guests Seahaven (US) who will be making their debut visit to our shores.

With a distinctive Aussie tinge to their emotive and propulsive wares, Dear Seattle are a headbanging-with-heart punk rock band from Sydney’s Northern Beaches. One part mosh pit, and one part love letter, the band have created a truly unique and powerful style of songwriting that’s connecting with fans across Australia and the rest of the world.

Whether charming Missy Higgins herself with their 2019 triple j Like A Version of "The Special Two", launching their own beer, burning up the charts and airwaves, or penning melodic, sing along anthems, Dear Seattle are a band who build unforgettable moments with charming execution.

Their latest album, TOY (Domestic La La), released last year and marked a major milestone for the band, debuting at #4 on the ARIA Albums Chart and earning Dear Seattle their first ever Top 10 ARIA chart position. Following a massive year of shows all over the world, TOY was re-released earlier this year as an expanded edition featuring two bonus tracks.

Joining Dear Seattle on their trek across Australia is Seahaven, an alternative rock band from Torrance, California, known for blending emotionally raw songwriting with melodic, atmospheric guitar-driven music. Over nearly two decades, the band has earned a devoted following through acclaimed releases including Winter Forever, Reverie Lagoon: Music for Escapism Only, Halo of Hurt, and their self-titled 2026 album. With introspective lyrics, dynamic arrangements, and a sound that balances melancholy with soaring hooks, Seahaven continues to evolve while staying true to the honesty that has defined the band from the beginning.

Dear Seattle and Seahaven will be joined by locals Flavuh, Rusty & The Bucketheads and Exit Smiling.

This is an all-ages event.
