ORB – Australian Psych Rock Voyagers Land Stateside
Hailing from Geelong, Australia, O.R.B have carved out a cult following with their heavy blend of fuzz-drenched psychedelia, doom-soaked riffs, and cosmic exploration. Emerging from the same fertile Australian underground that birthed King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard (ORB’s labelmates on Flightless Records), the trio brings a potent mix of Sabbath-inspired sludge, krautrock groove, and sci-fi freakouts to every stage they hit.
Since their 2016 debut Birth, ORB have continued to push sonic boundaries across a string of critically acclaimed releases (Naturality, The Space Between, and 2024s ’Tailem Bend’), combining hypnotic repetition with unpredictable turns. Their sound is both retro-futuristic and defiantly analog, where thunderous low end meets interstellar ambition.
Now, O.R.B are gearing up for their long-awaited return to the United States. This tour marks a rare opportunity for North American audiences to witness the band’s immersive live show—equal parts ritual and revelation. Expect thick riffs, deep jams, and the kind of psychic energy that only comes from years of road-tested chemistry.
Catch ORB as they bring the heavy down under sound across the American landscape.
