Sunshine Coast’s Wave Raiders Drop “My Way,” Announce All-Ages Launch Party

Introducing Wave Raiders, a trio of alternative rock disruptors from the Sunshine Coast. They aren’t here to blend in – they’re here to smash cliches and carve out their own identity as they produce their style of Neo-Surf Rock Psychedelia, taking from the last 25 years of Australian rock music. 

Dropping their new single ‘My Way’ on Thursday 24 July via ONErpm, Wave Raiders will be celebrating by throwing an ALL AGES launch party at Sunshine Coast’s Solbar on Sunday 17 August with punk rock legends, Chamberlane, and up-and-coming grunge rockers, Karma Police, joining them for one rocking show, guaranteed to raise the roof off the Solbar.

Influenced by some of Australia’s rock royalty, including The Chats, Silverchair, and The Screaming Jets, ‘My Way’ was written by all three members of the band – Peter De Waard, Thomas De Waard, Jayden Georg, and produced by internationally renowned UK producer Steve James (The Angels, Cold Chisel, Skunkhour, The Screaming Jets). The track was recorded at Red Engine Studios, Brisbane, and mastered by Leon Zervos at Studios 301. ‘My Way’ is a song about not following the pack and carving out our own identity. “A lot of rules and artificial barriers have been put in front of us in the music industry due to our ages, but we’re not going to let them stop us. We just want to make good music and get out there and play live,” said Pete De Waard (lead guitar and vocals).

“We want our song to help people feel like they can be themselves and to ignore anyone who tries to get in the way of them achieving their aspirations.” – Wave Raiders
