Swapmeet. Four-piece out of Adelaide, Australia: Joshua Doherty, Venus O'Broin, Maxwell Elphick and Jack Medlyn. Folk-leaning indie rock in the vein of Big Thief and Julia Jacklin. Their debut EP Oxalis (2024), which opens with 'Ceiling Fan,' was entirely self-recorded and self-mixed by the band, dozens of tracks layered per song. It won Best Song and Best Release at the 2024 South Australian Music Awards, and the band later became the first international act signed to the Los Angeles label Winspear. They played SXSW in 2026, where Rolling Stone named them among the festival's most impressive new acts, and put out their debut full-length album, Mount Zero, in July 2026.
