The Music chooses one song every week as its Power Pick, shining a light on ONE Aussie song that we think has the potential to be the next big Australian chart hit.

Our Power Pick committee consists of Richard Kingsmill (consultant and former triple j Group Music Director), Maddy Rowe (Nova nights announcer), Nic Kelly (Hit Network nights announcer), Ash McGregor (host of Listen Up with Ash McGregor), Kent “Smallzy” Small (Host of ‘The Smallzy Show’ on the Kiis Network), Irene Hulme (radio consultant and host of Game Changers Radio podcast) and Ollie Wards (ex-Head of Music for TikTok Australia).

They’re an unstoppable force in the Australian indie rock scene, and just one year removed from their ARIA-nominated third album, If That Makes Sense, Perth outfit Spacey Jane already have big plans for 2026.

Having released Do You Really Love Her a few months ago, the group just last month announced the release of their forthcoming EP, Exit Wounds. Set for release on June 12th, the six-track collection has now been teased by the release of their latest instant classic, I Never See Her.

“I Never See Her’ is about rationalising a breakup,” says frontman Caleb Harper. “It's a conversation you have with yourself when you're delaying the inevitable and anticipating the grief. It's also about longing for a place that will hold you and keep you safe – trying to define what home means and where it is.”

Alongside the announcement of their forthcoming EP, Spacey Jane have also detailed a run of national tour dates for later in the year. Dubbed the Heading Back Down Under tour, the national trek will see the group supported by Telenova and Armlock. Tickets to these dates are on sale now.
