Restless sees the band lean into a more polished, emotionally driven sound without losing the bite that’s earned them a loyal following back home. Known for balancing big hooks with raw honesty, Sly Withers have already racked up over 20 million Spotify streams, two ARIA Top 10 albums, and several entries in triple j’s Hottest 100.
Speaking about the single, vocalist Jono Mata says, “Restless is about wanting to do better — for yourself, for others — but feeling stuck in your own head. It's about the frustration that builds when you know you need to change, but can’t quite get there.”
Produced by Stevie Knight (Stand Atlantic, RedHook), mixed by James Paul Wisner (Paramore, Underoath), and mastered by Grant Berry (Boston Manor, All Time Low), Restless has already picked up praise from NME AUS, Triple J, and Australian Guitar Magazine for its anthemic intensity and emotional weight.
Now, the band — Jono Mata, Sam Blitvich, Shea Moriarty, and Fraser Cringle — are set to bring that energy to UK audiences for the very first time. London fans can catch them in an intimate setting at The Victoria, Dalston.
