The Swell Sessions - not just about music; it's a celebration of everything that makes Torquay unique, from our coastal lifestyle to the vital lifesaving services that keep our beaches safe.

Join us as we celebrate the surf and support the lifesaving efforts that protect our coastline. Come for the music, stay for the culture, and be part of a legacy that protects and celebrates our coastline for generations to come.

After a huge sold-out tour at the start of this year, we're stoked to welcome The Terrys to close out this year's Swell Sessions.
Known for bringing good energy to every stage they step on, The Terrys’ live shows are a perfect match for The Swell Sessions’ beachfront celebration of surf, sound and community. Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering them for the first time under the Torquay sky, expect feel-good anthems and an unforgettable set where the surf meets the sound.

Next up ~~meat~~ meet The Beefs—one of Australia’s most exciting pub‑rock powerhouses, blending infectious pop hooks, rock ’n’ roll grit and a tongue‑in‑cheek Aussie spirit that turns every listen into a good‑time. Their breakout tracks—like Red Bellied Black Snake, Punchin’, and In The Blood—have amassed millions of streams and earned collaborations with acclaimed artists including Matt Corby, Kirin J. Callinan, and Julian Sudek. Whether they’re lighting up festival stages or soundtracking a BBQ with mates, The Beefs deliver music built for cold drinks, loud laughs, and unforgettable nights.

Blending gritty indie rock, mystic pop, and a magnetic blend of male–female vocals, Holiday Mystics are a four‑piece Tasmanian‑born, London‑sharpened force redefining Australia’s alt‑rock landscape. Described as “a chaotic Fleetwood Mac and a mystic Red Hot Chili Peppers,” their sound swings between raw, anthemic energy and dream‑laden atmospheres.

Krystal Rivvers are one of Australia’s most compelling new alt‑rock forces, an Eora/Sydney‑based outfit led by Wurundjeri/Boon Wurrung singer‑songwriter Earl Weir. Their sound blends psych‑rock, soul, and poetic grit, earning comparisons to artists like The War on Drugs and Nick Cave while carving out a voice that’s distinctly their own.

Blondehouse are a fast‑rising three‑piece alternative rock outfit born on the Bellarine Peninsula and now firmly rooted in Melbourne’s thriving music scene. Blending grunge, alt‑rock and flashes of punk energy, they’ve built a reputation for raw emotion, infectious live shows, and songwriting that’s as honest as it is hard‑hitting.

All this plus live DJ sets will make April 11 a crackerjack time.

Help us celebrate what an incredible series this has been!
