Description

What began as something to do while there was no surf has become so much more for Zach Stephenson and Billy Fleming aka Hockey Dad.

In 2013 the two, who have been friends since early childhood, started jamming in their parents’ garage because there were no waves. With Zach on guitar/vocals and Billy behind the drum kit, the two quickly progressed to writing their own songs and had a set together to start playing some shows locally across Wollongong. Ten years on, and Hockey Dad now have an EP, four full-length albums and a live record under their belt and have headlined tours across Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Canada, the USA and UK as well as played main stage sets at some of the world’s biggest festivals.

In the process, the duo have earned themselves gold and platinum records in Australia, two top 10 chart positions and a loyal set of fans that have sold out shows at some of music’s most iconic venues. Their fourth album Rebuild Repeat marks a turning point in the boys’ sound and has been praised as their most impressive release to date. They will be touring worldwide in support of this release, and you can catch them live at The River Hotel.
