Further showcasing their unique blend of funk, soul and hip-hop, ‘For The Record’ was WINSTON SURFSHIRT’s first new music since their highly applauded 16-track debut record, ‘Sponge Cake’. The 2017 LP was a summery debut binding together bold brass and airy vocals; which featured their debut Gold-certified single ‘Be About You’; and received nods from international tastemakers Beats 1 host Zane Lowe and Sir Elton John; Jason Bentley (KCRW); Huw Stephens & Phil Taggart (BBC Radio 1); and Lauren Laverne (BBC Radio 6), alongside earning Triple J feature album.

They sold out all 10 shows across the country on their ‘Sponge Cake’ Australian Tour; followed by festival billings at Splendour In The Grass, Spilt Milk, Falls Festival, Field Day & This That; before heading overseas and selling out shows across London and Europe.
