Noah Learmonth is the sort of frontman that classic bands are built around. Talk to the wryly amusing Radio Free Alice vocalist, and you’ll find a leader who knows exactly what he wants his band to be: hook-laden yet self-aware; full of nuance, humour and a strange kind of joy; a group for those who often find themselves on the margins of the party, but a unit whose dreams are also ambitiously, unashamedly massive and fully on display with their debut record, What’s In Between.

Radio Free Alice began as young teenagers a decade ago, playing covers of Radiohead and Mudhoney and The The to school assemblies full of baffled peers. Now, they’re about to unveil their debut album via Atlantic Records to an increasingly fervent, increasingly global fanbase who’ve taken the Melbourne-based group’s insatiable earworms and idiosyncratic worldview to their hearts. Externally, everything has changed. But Learmonth has always known who Radio Free Alice are from the start.

A card-carrying lover of coming-of-age narratives, with What’s In Between Learmonth and his band have written the soundtrack to their own: a debut destined to play on the stereos of a generation of fans as they carve out their singular stories, and an album that cements Radio Free Alice’s place as one of 2026’s most significant breakout bands.
