Radio Free Alice

BIOGRAPHY

Since forming in 2020 after meeting at university, Melbourne four-piece Radio Free Alice have carved their own distinct niche in the post-punk genre thanks to their arresting arrangements, clever lyrics, and frontman Noah Learmonth’s distinctive, yearning throaty vocals. With an operatic swagger and an angular, guitar-driven sound, the Melbourne group has emerged as one of Australia’s most exciting young bands with their first three EPs: Radio Free Alice (2023), Polyester (2024), and Empty Words (2025).

Built up by Noah Learmonth (vocals/guitar), Jules Paradiso (guitar), Michael Phillips (bass/saxophone), and Lochie Dowd (drums), the band’s frenetic live shows have captured audiences across the globe. They have sold out show after show after show across Australia, the UK/Europe, and North America, while becoming mainstays of the festival circuit, performing at Reading/Leeds Festival, Shaky Knees, The Great Escape, SXSW, and more. When they aren’t out on their own headline runs, Radio Free Alice has supported the likes of Geese, The Killers, Royel Otis, Big Special, and Sorry.

All before releasing their debut full-length record, the band has been championed by Rolling Stone, NME, BBC, Triple J, Stereogum, Pigeons & Planes, and countless other keepers of the culture. With a newly inked deal with Atlantic Records out of the US, Radio Free Alice is working towards the release of their first album. Once again working with Ewan Pearson (Depeche Mode, M83, Foals) Peter Katis (Interpol, Death Cab For Cutie, The National), fans can look forward to new music very soon.
