Melbourne hard rock outfit Stonetrip are back with their brand-new single ‘Postcards’, out now via Golden Robot Records.

The band comments: “Postcards” is a heartfelt reflection on love and distance – a story rooted in a time before mobile phones and social media, when couples relied on handwritten postcards to bridge the gap. The song captures the raw emotion of long-distance relationships and the heartbreak of breakups carried out across miles. Without face-to-face connection or eye contact, all that’s left is brutal honesty from afar, the words that sometimes get lost along the way. The making of the song included the whole band. We all went into the studio as a band to create our parts. Ricki Rae (producer) who knows our signature sound is a great influence in how the song ends up sounding. The video was made with the help of two great actors up in the hills of Olinda, Melbourne, Australia. It was the first time we storyboard the video clip. We usually just wing it. It tells the song perfectly.”

Melbourne-based hard rock outfit Stonetrip unleash their rocking new single ‘Fame‘, out now via Golden Robot Records.

Stream ‘Fame’ HERE

‘Fame’ explores the complex and often destructive pursuit of notoriety. We all crave it to some degree – some chase it relentlessly, some stumble into it by accident. But ‘Fame‘ digs into the darker side of the fame game: the people who will do anything to get it, burning bridges and ignoring advice unless it feeds their ego. It’s about those who want the spotlight but fear what comes with it. They’re running full speed… but from what, they’re not even sure.

Driven by raw riffs, soaring vocals, and the band’s signature blend of classic and modern rock energy, ‘Fame‘ is a track that cuts through the noise with its unapologetic truth. It’s loud, it’s honest, and it’s very, very real. Stonetrip continue to make waves with their no-holds-barred approach to songwriting and electric live performances, and ‘Fame‘ is another bold step forward for a band that isn’t afraid to call it like they see it.

Hailing from the vibrant music scene of Melbourne, Stonetrip is a powerhouse rock band known for their electrifying performances and raw, authentic sound. Signed to Golden Robot Records, the band blends classic rock influences with modern flair, creating a dynamic and unforgettable auditory experience.

In 2021, Stonetrip released their self-titled EP, showcasing their talent and versatility. This release solidified their reputation and garnered significant attention within the rock community. The band’s music, characterized by powerful vocals, driving rhythms, and intricate guitar work, reflects their passion and commitment to rock n roll.

2023 saw the release of Stonetrip’s debut album “Run Free,” featuring six singles and six accompanying video clips. The album has been well-received globally, further enhancing their international presence. Despite a few lineup changes out of their control, Stonetrip entered 2024 with renewed vigor and new music. Their first release of the year, “Beautiful You,” was a testament to their evolving sound and dedication to their craft.

Stonetrip has had the honour of supporting legendary bands such as Rose Tattoo, The Screaming Jets, and Baby Animals, further cementing their status as a formidable force on stage. With a reputation for high-energy shows and a dedication to their craft, Stonetrip has quickly risen to prominence, captivating audiences and earning a loyal fanbase.
