Nautical Mile return with nostalgic new single “Daydreamer” LAUNCHING LIVE IN PERTH ON SATURDAY 28 MARCH

Perth pop-punk favourites Nautical Mile are officially back, returning with their nostalgic new single, “Daydreamer“. The track will make its live debut at the band’s first show in four years at Amplifier Bar in Perth on Saturday 28 March – tickets on sale now.

“Daydreamer” is an energetic, heart-on-sleeve throwback that taps into the nostalgia of simpler times, before adulthood and the grapplings of growing up set in. Written just before the band went on an indefinite hiatus, the track found new life when Nautical Mile began jamming again in 2024, quickly revealing itself as the perfect reintroduction.

Bursting with the same upbeat spirit that defined their debut album The Only Way Is Through, “Daydreamer” leans into the bright hooks, driving guitars and energy that first put the band on the radar. It reflects on better days and on reclaiming the feeling of who you were before life got complicated. “During our time away we all had a fair amount of life happening, so coming back to the band felt like us recapturing the spirit of those happier, lighter times,” says the band. “It’s a lot of fun to play, and we’re keen to get out and share it with the world.”

Forming in Perth in 2016, Nautical Mile – Brodi Owen, Caleb Wynter, Dan Ray, Nick Henrisson and Jake Vimini – quickly made a name for themselves in Australia’s pop punk space, sharing hometown stages with Trophy Eyes and Hawthorne Heights (US) early on before expanding their reach across Australia.

Since they released their debut album in 2019, featuring leading singles “Marionette” and “Regicide“, Nautical Mile have toured nationally, supporting the likes of Hellions, Senses Fail (US) and Hands Like Houses, and have amassed over a million streams online – including close to a million alone for their cover of Jesse McCartney’s “Beautiful Soul“. Along the way, they’ve received support from triple j, Unearthed and key editorial Spotify playlists including All New Punk and Rock Out.

Now, Nautical Mile step back into the spotlight with renewed momentum. “Daydreamer” marks the beginning of a new chapter, one that will be celebrated at their first show in almost four years at Amplifier Bar in Perth, before they set their sights on the east coast later in the year for the first time since 2019.

“Daydreamer” is out today and streaming everywhere now.
