As the world we know enters another revolution into the unknown, from the depths of shadow emerges a force, an energy, spanning oceans and crossing continents like never before… a mission through time and space to bring the sound of cold water California to the ears of Australia.
Bundjalung mystics Couch Wizard hit the road with Santa Cruz’s Return to Nagoya (USA) for a once in a lifetime sonic quest to bring balance of light and darkness to the far corners of Australia under the steam of new single ‘Dwell’.

Known for their high-energy, ritual-like live sets, the Wizards take listeners on an eerie, theatrical journey through time and space. Slow, melodic intros give way to crushing riffs, painting mystical scenes of smoky mountains and volcanic fury which has seen them play alongside the likes of Wolfmother, Miniskirt, Dumb Punts and Downgirl and appear at events such as A Bit Grim, Ancient Gates, Psych Lords, Mitchell Creek Festival, Bluesfest and many more.
With a sonic palate for fans of Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Sleep, Stevie Ray Vaughn and Hobo Magic, their spellbinding performances will leave you questioning how an hour could feel like a single song.
The band’s upcoming ‘Thrash Magick’ Australian Tour will span most of the country’s habitable population centres, offering 13 shows nation-wide in the band’s most expansive tour offering to date. If you think you’re ready… think again. This is live music at its most volatile, wild, unhinged and unforgettable. See you in the pit.
