Before the album

Fair warning

If you're in the crowd, there's a good chance you'll end up on stage hitting the tambo, screaming the vocals, or on top of one of our shoulders.

Hit the tambo. Go on.

Six pelicans

The Good Kids are best buds who grew up on Sydney's Northern Beaches and never stopped mucking around. A typical show is six buffoons having an improvised circus rock-and-roll party with the audience: someone's hitting the tambo, someone's on our shoulders, someone's surfing the crowd on a foamie. We call it eyes up footy. Along the way: triple j Unearthed Feature Artists in 2024, a RAGE Wild One for No Parks (at the Beach), back on the Tracks Party Tour for another year, and our own Good Day Out, which raised $25,000 for Surfers for Climate. The debut album, Eyes Up Footy, lands 30 October.
