Psychedelic rock dreamers make their Vivid LIVE debut

The musical brainchild of multi-talented Wiradjuri singer, songwriter and producer Zeppelin Hamilton, Gadigal-based psych-rockers Velvet Trip have been electrifying audiences around the country with their kaleidoscopic fusion of psych-pop and rock. Fresh from captivating audiences supporting international star – and certified Velvet fan – Djo, and with a highly anticipated new EP on the horizon, the band makes its Sydney Opera House debut for Vivid LIVE.

Drawing comparisons to the likes of Tame Impala, Temples and Parcels, the band built on the buzz for their 2019 EP Velvet Trip & the Six Moon Skies with a series of singles and their ARIA-charting debut album Harmony Blooms (2024), which was followed by the fan-favourite track It Don’t Matter. With their new single Calling Out Your Name and forthcoming EP Glimmers (due for release on May 2nd), Hamilton and creative partner Clayton Allen continue to push their musical boundaries while showcasing their signature psych-pop sound – a fusion of indie, funk, soul and dance that has earned them a devoted fanbase.

Delivering a euphoric performance that pulses with colour, movement, and boundless energy, here’s your chance to see Velvet Trip at their most radiant. And it’s only just the beginning.
