It’s all going down at Greaser.

Naarm First Nations led indie punk band Chasing Ghosts release their new single Chamomile Tea, from their upcoming new album Therapy, which arrives May 16, 2025 via Believe Music (digital) & Summit Distro (physical).

Today the band also announce the Therapy Australian Tour, happening this June with special guests Brisbane alt-rock band The Comfort and Melbourne pop punk band Cordiform. Chasing Ghosts will be bringing their indie punk rock anthems to Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Ballarat and Adelaide. Full tour details below.

Produced by ARIA nominated producer Stevie Knight (Stand Atlantic, Redhook, Yours Truly, Sleeping With Sirens) and mixed by James Paul Wisner (Paramore, Underoath), Chamomile Tea sees Chasing Ghosts return to their up-temp, catchy indie punk rock roots. It delivers a powerful ode for overcoming personal demons.

About Chamomile Tea Jimmy Kyle states;
“Chamomile Tea is a tongue in cheek take on a time in my life that was very dark. It’s about struggling with Insomnia from stress and anxiety, created by an endless stream of thoughts coupled with self-medicating behaviours and the emotional impact spilling out into my personal and professional relationships.”

WATCH / LISTEN

Chasing Ghosts have always been a band whose music has championed urgency in its messaging. Unbridled passion and fury meets honest storytelling and observations delivered by frontman and songwriter, Jimmy Kyle.

A Thungutti man who has emerged as one of Australia’s most important voices in recent years, Kyle’s lyricism has seasoned and matured beautifully since the release of Chasing Ghosts’ 2011 debut, Confessions From A Phone Booth. As a songwriter, Kyle marries introspection with boldness as his stories confront, deconstruct and illuminate the challenging realities of being an Indigenous Australian; while also championing human persistence, the ability to overcome, and the recognition of beauty in even the most flawed.

It is this sense of boldness that has made Chasing Ghosts a beloved live act and an exciting one to watch develop with each studio project. With the release of their new album Therapy, Chasing Ghosts reconnect with fresh perspective and attack some of their most personal and intimate material yet with cathartic strength. As the title intimates, Therapy has its links to music – the creation of a space where expression is unfiltered and allowed to explore areas of dark and light.

As an album, Therapy is unafraid to be vulnerable as it journeys confrontational issues faced by many: mental health crises, domestic violence, intergenerational trauma; and the process of recognising and navigating one’s way through to a healthier outcome.
