Artist of the Week: Seaforth

CountryTown in partnership with iHeartCountry Australia is proud to announce Seaforth as our Artist Of The Week, following the massive jump of their current single on the Countrytown Music Network Hot 50 chart last week.

Comprised of members Tom Jordan and Mitch Thompson, Seaforth are a rising pop-country duo from the suburb of Seaforth in New South Wales, who now call Nashville home. Jordan and Thompson were childhood friends from three-years-old, who later found themselves drawn to similar music, listening to modern songwriters like Keith Urban one minute and old-school acts like the Beatles the next.

They released their debut EP, Love That in 2019. The title track made waves on country radio and earned more than 43 million streams. They collaborated with fellow country artist, Mitchell Tenpenny on their follow-up single Anything She Says, which was gold-certified and surpassed 79 million streams. Last year, Seaforth were the recipients of APRA’s Breakthrough Songwriter of the Year award.

Their current single is the self-produced, Breakups. Written by Seaforth with Cameron Bedell and Liz Rose, the song details the emotional aftermath of a breakup and the insurmountable pain both parties go through.

Thompson says, “Breakups is the most personal song we’ve put out to date. It was written from a very real place and was almost like therapy for us both in different ways. We hope everyone can related to it like we do.”
