Gunaikurnai/Gippsland-based folk-rock/alt-country duo Ally Row has come a long way since their humble beginnings in mid-2021, touring the East Coast, crashing in a rooftop tent, playing “play-to-stay” gigs. Their big break came fast, winning The Tablelands Folk Festival Songwriting Contest with Bare Feet and a radio competition weeks later with Struggling to Breathe.

Drawing inspiration from Mumford & Sons, Of Monsters & Men, Sons of The East and The 502s, Ally Row blends toe-tapping energy with raw emotion. Armed with velvety harmonies, guitar, piano, modernized banjo, harmonica, and stomp box, their dynamic sound breaks genre barriers and brings audiences to their feet.

Their rise since has been unstoppable – winners of the Triple J Unearthed NYE on the Hill Fest Competition and the Port Fairy Folk Festival Busking Competition, plus festival slots across Australia in 2023 and 2024, they’ve shared the stage with Golden Guitar winner Fanny Lumsden, folk legend Kim Churchill and ARIA winner William Crighton.

2024 was indeed a breakout year, with five original singles, major radio plays and ABC Country features (This Time and The Great Unknown). And 2025? It’s already shaping up to be their strongest yet, kicking off at Tamworth Country Music Festival, opening for The Bushwhackers and Bryce Sainty, and hitting the main Toyota Stage “twice” including the highlight, one of five acts alongside Andrew Swift to make up Americana in the Park… what a show that was.

Ally Row is just getting started… catch them live and you’ll see why!
