Over 15 years into their career, everything Ball Park Music does these days feels like a victory lap. The Brisbane indie darlings have long established their status as one of Australia's most revered and endearing bands – with five of their seven albums having debuted in the ARIA top five, four of their song shaving gone platinum and no less than a dozen Hottest 100 placements to their name. Most bands in that position would be happy to coast out their days on heyday nostalgia alone, but if it wasn't already clear: Ball Park Music are not most bands.
In 2021, Ball Park Music released summer single ‘Sunscreen’ to an ecstatic audience, the first single from their 7th record Weirder & Weirder. The album became the band’s third record to debut at #2 on the ARIA Charts, and is the 2nd album to be released under Ball Park Music’s independent label, Prawn Records. In 2022, the five-piece indie rock group completed the national W&W album tour and celebrated their 500th live show at the Hordern Pavilion.
In 2023 with ‘Stars In My Eyes’ reaching top 10 of triple j’s Hottest 100, and selling out nearly every show on the ‘Get The F**king Nerds Back On!’ national tour, Ball Park Music is truly proving themselves as one of Australia’s biggest bands of the last 10 years with an incredible catalogue of songs that have soundtracked so many lives.
