Fresh off their Billabong collaboration in late 2024, Gerringong-based indie-rock upstarts The Terrys have kicked off 2025 with the announcement of their new self-titled album – due later in the year. Accompanying this announcement is the record’s second single, ‘Stay Free’ – produced and mixed by Tasker (3%, Chillint, Tia Gostelow), Paddy Cornwall and Taras Hrubyj-Piper.
‘Stay Free’ starts delicately with expressive acoustic guitar and lead singer Jacob “Finchie” Finch’s wholesome vocal performance. The verses build effortlessly through groove-laden bass, flicky palm-muted guitar and static drums before soaring into dreamy choruses uplifted by rousing backing vocals.
The band explain the inspiration for ‘Stay Free’: “2024 was the most challenging year we’ve faced as a band yet. It was also easily the most fun we’ve ever had. On an average morning, The Terry’s would wake up feeling like a dropped meat pie. Asking the question, ‘Are the good times over already?’… next thing we knew, we come to onstage with all our mates, playing a sold-out show in a fancy city like Paris, or Wagga Wagga. We reckon life is often a laugh-or-cry situation. We choose to laugh and ‘Stay Free’ is our anthem for it. Oh yeah, it’s also our second single off our forthcoming self-titled album. 2025 is the year of the tezza’s baby!”
Following on from performances in late 2024 at Beyond The Valley, Chasing Tides and Hay Park, the band will perform Over The Ditch in Mulubinba/Newcastle in February alongside The Temper Trap, Jack River, The Cat Empire, Cub Sport and COTERIE. This continues on from selling out shows across Australia, the UK, EU & NZ and playing Australian mainstays Spaced Out Festival, Yours & Owls, NYE on the Hill, Rolling Sets and Festival of the Sun.
Last year, the band went from strength to strength, with their sophomore album ‘Skate Pop’ debuting at #2 on ARIA’s Album Chart and landing a coveted triple j Feature Album spot. The singles also appeared at #93 (‘No Bad Days’), #103 (‘Hopscotch’) and #181 (‘Silent Disco’) in triple j’s Hottest 100 (2023). Their first record ‘True Colour’ also debuted at #3 on the ARIA Album Chart.
The Terrys’ true north has always been this: stay positive, take it one day at a time and look towards the horizon with a smile and, ideally, beer in hand.
‘Stay Free’ is available worldwide now

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
