DMA’S Go Major Label Route on New Self-Titled Album

DMA’S Go Major Label Route on New Self-Titled Album

DMA’S are back, and for the first time they’re backed by a major label.

The Australian trio, purveyors of a sound that resonates with fans of ‘90s Britpop, will drop a self-titled set this August through a new global deal with Wonderlick Entertainment partnering with Sony Music Australia and RCA UK.

Their fifth studio album, DMA’S is due out Aug. 7 and will house the previously released jangly cut “My Baby’s Place” and the anthemic “Heatin Park, which dropped this week with an official music video.

DMA’S was written and recorded in the act’s studio in Glebe, Sydney, and Los Angeles, and is said to showcase “the evolution of their signature anthemic sound with fresh sonic textures,” a statement reads.

The band members (Tommy O’Dell, Matt Mason and Johnny Took) co-produce most of the record with Grammy Award-nominated producer Lach Bostock (Mansionair), and with help from Jimi Somewhere and Styalz Fuego.

DMA’S have accumulated more than 500 million streams, nabbed an ARIA Award in 2023 for best group, and in 2023 came out on top of triple j’s inaugural Hottest 100 “Live A Version” countdown with their cover of Cher’s ‘90s dance hit “Believe.” All four of their studio albums have crashed the top 10 on the ARIA Chart, through long-time former label home I Oh You, part of the Mushroom Group.

It’s in the United Kingdom, however, where DMA’S have found their spiritual home. The band’s previous two studio albums, How Many Dreams (No. 3 in 2023), and The Glow (No. 4 in 2020) both cracked the top 10 on the Official U.K. Albums Chart. There, each DMA’S album has charted higher than the last.

DMA’S will support the album in their homeland with a newly-announced East Coast tour, which gets underway Nov. 27 at Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall, followed by a concert at Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens on Nov. 28, part of the Live at the Gardens series, and wrap up with a hometown show at the Sydney Opera House Forecourt on Dec. 3. Ticket information can be found at secretsounds.com and  livenation.com.au.

But first, a U.K. outing this summer celebrating the 10-year anniversary of the band’s debut album Hills End.
