The Wombats are making their way to Austin’s Historic Scoot Inn on Tuesday, October 28th, 2025, as part of their Oh! The Ocean tour. The stop arrives as the band doubles down on their latest era, dropping Oh! The Ocean: Holy Sugar, an extended edition of their sixth studio album, offering fans even more to sink their teeth into.
Released earlier this year, Oh! The Ocean stands as The Wombats’ most experimental album to date. Produced in part with John Congleton, the album captures something raw, human, and immediate. It dives into deep themes of social anxiety, isolation, and reinvention– something that frontman Matthew “Murph” Murphy approaches with unflinching honesty.
Tracks like “Sorry, I’m Late, I Didn’t Want to Come” and “Kate Moss” blend sharp lyricism with electrifying production, threading indie-rock roots through disco grooves, electronic flourishes, and even tech-rock grit. The newly expanded Holy Sugar builds on that vision, adding fresh tracks such as “Holy Sugar” that deepens the record’s sound.
For their Austin crowd, fans can expect a set that stretches across the band’s career: a generous dose of new material balanced by the beloved hits that cemented The Wombats as indie-rock darlings.
And it won’t just be The Wombats commanding the stage. Rising UK acts Only the Poets and Red Rum Club will open the night, setting the tone with their own brand of high-energy alt-rock before The Wombats bring their signature chaos-meets-euphoria finale.
With Scoot Inn’s intimate, open-air setup, this tour stop promises to feel both raw and electric. A chance to see a veteran band reinvent itself while still delivering the anthems that defined a generation of indie kids. Austin fans, Oh! The Ocean isn’t just an album, it’s an entire wave, and Holy Sugar makes it hit even harder.
Be on time, you do want to come, Austin!
