An unbreakable bond shared between lifelong mates, Dave and Henry hail from the tiny farming community of Kojonup, a town three hours south of Perth, Western Australia. Starting out as school friends and rehearsing in a makeshift space in an old farm shed, Old Mervs are a far cry from their humble beginnings. Riding a wave of wins, Old Mervs are celebrating a massive 2025 after the success of their ARIA-charting debut album release and sold out tours across Australia, the United States, the UK and Europe. Recorded with ARIA award-winning producer Chris Collins, their debut self-titled album scored coveted Australian youth broadcaster triple j’s Feature Album of the week and landed at #1 on the ARIA album charts, winning hearts with hits “Parched," “What You’ve Lost," “Forget It," “Everyone Will See It” and “Don’t Go." In 2025, the pair embarked on a mammoth 20 date album tour across Australia and New Zealand along with their biggest headline home-state show to date at Perth HPC. They then headed to the US to play at world-renowned festival Lollapalooza alongside names like Olivia Rodrigo, Tyler the Creator and Sabrina Carpenter, bookended by a massive run of headline shows across the States, stopping in for an Audiotree session too. They closed out the year with a return to the UK and their first ever shows in Europe. This year looks to be just as big, if not bigger. With new music in the pipeline, and a stack of touring at home and across the globe, Old Mervs are thrilled to return to the US again for a stack of huge headline shows, along with Kilby Block Party, Gov Ball and more dates to be announced!
