The run builds on the band’s Australian headline debut in February, when feverishly sold-out underplays and a Laneway Festival run introduced the band to a much wider audience. The year since has been a steep climb. In February, Geese took out International Group at the BRIT Awards, beating HAIM, Tame Impala, Turnstile and HUNTR/X. They made their Saturday Night Live debut – Cameron Winter even featured as the subject of a skit – played on NPR’s Tiny Desk, and sold out Glasgow’s Barrowland Ballroom and London’s Troxy. Earlier this month, Geese played their biggest hometown headline shows yet at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens, New York.
Getting Killed, released in September 2025 through Partisan Records / Play It Again Sam, is the reason. A restless, fractious record that moves between tenderness and fury was named Best New Music by Pitchfork at 9.0. Consequence called it “one of the most creative indie rock records of the 2020s,” and brought the hype around the group to an absolute fever pitch. Geese would be considered the reason for young audiences discovering bands again and asserted that the kids were alright. Critical acclaim followed at every turn, topping year-end lists at the New York Times, Time, The New Yorker, and placing fifth on Rolling Stone.
Cameron Winter’s live solo album release of his December 2025 performance at Carnegie Hall also landed earlier this month, capturing the historic performance in full at the storied concert hall’s main auditorium. Alone, arched over his piano with his back to an awed, sold-out crowd, the Geese frontman reshaped songs from his acclaimed debut Heavy Metal.
