After the music press sang their praises last year after the release of their third studio album, If That Makes Sense, Freo quartet Spacey Jane return in 2026 with their first taste of new music in the form of the single ‘Do You Really Love Her’.

A playful jolt of indie rock, the track was written on Mulholland Drive in the Hollywood Hills and has a much more cinematic feel to it than previous releases.

“‘Do You Really Love Her’ was born out of the If That Makes Sense writing sessions. For some reason the song didn't feel like the right fit for the album, but we always wanted it to see the light of day,” the band shares.

“Written with Sarah Aarons and Joel Little, then taken to John Hill for production, we referenced lush ‘80s pub rock in the studio. Australian bands like INXS, The Church and Icehouse are both nostalgic and inspirational to us. It's part fiction, part reality. A dream about being stood up by your date only to see them on a movie screen and the experience of yearning for a connection and losing someone to time, distance or another life.

“This release and the others to follow are almost experiments. Songs we love that didn't end up on an album. Something we want to share while we take stock and reset.”

Following the release of Spacey Jane’s 2020 debut album Sunlight and 2022’s Here Comes Everybody, last year’s If That Makes Sense is their biggest record yet, landing at #2 on the ARIA Album Charts while also being nominated for two 2025 ARIA Awards – Best Rock Album and Best Video.

The record also ended the year as the highest-selling Australian album, with Spacey Jane named the Most Played artist on triple j for 2025.

Last year also saw vocalist and guitarist Caleb Harper, guitarist Ashton Hardman-Le Cornu, bassist Peppa Lane and drummer Kieran Lama embark on a run of shows across Australia, North America, and Europe, before returning home over the summer and performing at Rolling Sets, Beyond The Valley, The Great Escape and AO Live festivals this summer.
