orn in Fremantle and raised on loud guitars, high-energy shows and close mateship, Ra Ra Viper have emerged as one of Australia’s most electrifying alt-rock acts over the last few years. The five-piece blends jagged riffs, snarling energy and infectious hooks into a sound that nods to bands like The Black Keys and Fontaines D.C. whilst maintaining a distinctly Australian surf rock edge. Since releasing their well-received debut album Big Speak in 2024, Ra Ra have received considerable national airplay and landed spots on major Australian festival lineups including Summersalt, Yours & Owls and Party in the Paddock. With a sophomore album slated for release in 2026 and recent national tours alongside the likes of The Wombats, Old Mervs and Ullah, Ra Ra Viper are fast becoming one of the most exciting voices in Australia’s alt-rock scene. Coming off an Australian tour in support of The Wombats in 2025, the group is now about to embark on a 19 date North American tour in support of their good mates Old Mervs in their first North American shows ever. Ra Ra Viper’s new single Record Baby (released December 2025) blends the surfy swagger of their early days with the grit and polish of their debut album Big Speak, delivering a jangly alt-rock anthem built for loud singalongs and packed-out mosh pits. The single is the first off their upcoming sophomore album scheduled for independent release in mid 2026. The group has comfortably maintained between 80,000 and 100,000 monthly listeners on Spotify over the last 2 years. Of this the audience has generally been at least 25% USA based. The group is hoping that this tour will elevate their fanbase in the USA and that they will be able to build a loyal following like they have done in Australia to date.
