Having made a bold and confident statement within his career, Undertow is no stranger to the stage. He has over 20 years tenure entertaining Australian and New Zealand audiences never swaying too far from the spotlight. Since releasing his debut LP ‘Minds Believing’ in 2010 to some great reviews and recognition. He then went on to release two albums and an EP with the act Kobra Kai. As a founding member the D&B/Grime/Hip Hop/Electronica act Kobra Kai made a huge impact on the Australian scene. Following that release, ’Light in the Distance’ dropped 2018 and a collaboration with Sydney producer O.T and Dj Maniak for 2019’s ‘Staircases’ release. Undertow has gone on to perfect his craft of connecting metaphors and syllables over crafted instrumentals. Along the way he shared the stage with some of the best in the business, including Caspa, Dizzee Rascal, Scratch Perverts, Lyrics Born, The Four Owls, Ocean Wisdom, Jam Baxter, MIA, Footsie and more.

The Undertow transport you to a small, warmly lit cabin where an acoustic guitar and three voices echo the passions and pains of what it means to be alive. Created when singer Ru placed an ad online looking to start a band, and fuelled by guitarist Grant's penchant for song writing, The Undertow have been playing together since 2013. This emerging Canberra band will take you on a journey through many characters and many lives with their sweet harmonies and alt country/folk feel.
