Cloud Control

Fri 8 May

Cloud Control, the Blue Mountains band who soundtracked a generation, recently reunited to celebrate 15 years of their debut album Bliss Release. Welcoming back their founding bassist Jeremy Kelshaw, the band sold out shows nationally playing in their original line up, for the first time in over a decade. Known for their lush harmonies, psych-folk sound, and compelling live shows, the band will continue the reunion with further shows in 2025 with Harvest Rock, playing a full classic hits set.

Their debut album Bliss Release (2010) made waves everywhere; receiving huge support from both community and national radio, and earning critical acclaim and accolades including the Australian Music Prize, AIR Independent Album of the Year, Sydney Music Arts & Culture award, and ARIA nominations. Tracks like “Gold Canary” and “There’s Nothing in the Water We Can’t Fight,” which reached #18 in the Triple J Hottest 100, became indie anthems that established Cloud Control as staple of Australian festival lineups with a reputation as a formidable live band. The album’s local success also struck a chord internationally and saw Cloud Control relocate to London and tour extensively across Europe and the US, sharing stages with acts like Supergrass, Vampire Weekend, Metronomy, The Drums, Foo Fighters, Local Natives, and Weezer.
