Our guest today is the Aussie surf-rock band King Stingray! Hailing from Arnhem Land, this group has quickly built a devoted following with their powerful fusion of rock and Yolŋu cultural influences. After earning ARIA and AIR awards for their self-titled debut, King Stingray is back with For the Dreams, a breathtaking new album that explores themes of nostalgia, simple living, and a deep connection to their homeland. In today’s episode, we sit down with guitarist and producer Roy Kellaway to chat about the creation of For the Dreams, recorded across various studios throughout Australia. We dive into the band’s collaborative songwriting approach and the significance of blending First Nations and English languages in their music. Plus, Roy gives us a sneak peek into their upcoming U.S. tour with King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard and what fans can look forward to on their Australian tour dates in March.
