Indie trio Valley Onda are gearing up for the release of ‘Reebok Fantasy’, landing on September 12th, 2025 via Valley Onda Records. The track follows the release of ‘Minacious’ and its accompanying music video, premiered on acclaimed global tastemaker CLASH Magazine. Since their 2019 debut, the trio has amassed over 350,000 streams, with their introspective sound earning praise from tastemaker publications and the acclaimed triple j, as well as national tour slots alongside The Money Warand Brightness. The band is composed of Jordan Wilson (vocals, guitar),Michiya Nagai (keys), and Galen Sultmann (drums).
As individuals, members of Valley Onda bring heavyweight credits – Jordan Wilson (former member of Georgia Fair) has opened for Paul Kelly, Laurel, and John Mayer, while keys Michiya Nagai has performed with electronic outfit Lamalo to audiences of 15,000+ at The Grass is Greener and soundtracked a TEDx Melbourne virtual event. They have also received a string of features across The AU Review, Happy Mag, Where The Music Meets and Clunk Mag, among others.
The Sydney/Gadigal-based outfit was born from quiet post-tour limbo and forged in a Sydney restaurant, when frontman Jordan met producer Galen Sultmann. Sessions between the two sparked into something more when Galen brought in long-time friend Michiya Nagai, a classically-trained pianist and versatile producer. Together, their sound has evolved into a rich palette of alternative textures, drawing influence from the likes of Radiohead, Alt-J, Mansionair, Bon Iver, Muse, and Gorillaz. Across years of careful crafting, immersive warehouse performances, and cross-disciplinary collaborations, Valley Onda’s music has taken on a sound sure to ensnare fans of REM, Cage The Elephant, and The Verve.
‘Reebok Fantasy’ sees the band deliver an atmospheric emotional journey that balances brooding tension with exhilarating release. Frontman Jordan’s vocals steer the ship with potent delivery while acoustic guitars and shimmering textures orbit around the lyrics with a dreaminess befitting of a cinematic film scene.
Speaking on the song, the band shared: “Do you know that feeling when you’re walking down the street feeling isolated and everyone else is looking cool in their designer clothing? So you pull into a Nepalese Restaurant and order a tea to hide out for a minute. Maybe open a paperback or meet someone interesting. That’s the vibe of Reebok Fantasy.”
