Salt Tree Announce New EP “Adrift” + Australian Headline Tour; Share New Single “Paradise”
August 1, 2025 BY Emma Orland
Salt Tree have never been known to stay still for long. Today, the Australian indie-folk duo announce their deeply personal new EP Adrift, due out October 24 via Nettwerk, alongside the release of blissful new single “Paradise”, and a string of long-awaited Australian headline tour dates. The announcement follows a whirlwind 18 months of sold-out shows across Europe and Australia, a dream-come-true tour with Jeremy Loops, and writing sessions born everywhere from soundchecks in Groningen to snowy rooftops in Stockholm.
Adrift is Salt Tree’s most expansive and emotionally resonant work to date — a collection of six songs exploring what it means to be caught in the in-between yet still move forward. Written across two continents and recorded entirely in vocalist and guitarist Tom Boerema’s makeshift home studio in the remote surf town of Margaret River, the EP captures the beauty in uncertainty.
Salt Tree share, “Adrift is a collection of songs about the moments in life when you feel unanchored; between places, between relationships, between versions of yourself. Each track explores a different kind of drifting – from the lows of mental struggle to the excitement of new love, from the sadness of letting go to the hope of being a better person. It’s about learning to trust that even when you’re unmoored, you’re still moving toward something real.”
Alongside recent singles “Cold Hard Ground” and “Answers”, Salt Tree share the third slice of the EP with new single “Paradise” – an intimate, slow-burning reflection on the dream of starting fresh in a place that feels like home. Co-written with Swedish producer Gustav Nyström during a snowy stay in Stockholm at the end of their first European headline tour, “Paradise” captures the magic of discovering a city that is so inspiring it makes you want to stay forever.

Salt Tree shares, “The song is about imagining a life you could build with someone in a new place. It’s about choosing to stay, to commit, and to create something real together. ‘Paradise’ is wherever you choose it to be, wherever you feel accepted, loved, have purpose, and feel at home.”

Salt Tree’s upcoming tour will see the duo return to stages across Australia this October, bringing their magnetic live show to fans nationwide. The tour kicks off October 3 in their hometown of Margaret River and wraps up October 26 in Brisbane, with stops in Perth, Adelaide, Sydney, Melbourne and more along the way. Their Australian tour follows a huge European run kickstarted in July and wrapping up in September.

ABOUT SALT TREE
In the remote coastal town of Margaret River — where the forest meets the sea — Salt Tree was born. The indie-folk duo of Tom Boerema and Nathan Parsons craft music rooted in connection, introspection, and the beauty of the natural world. Their sound is unmistakably their own: soaring harmonies, acoustic warmth, and stories that feel like conversations around a campfire.
Entirely self-written, recorded, and produced from their bedroom studio, Salt Tree’s music has struck a chord around the world — amassing over 100 million global streams. Since releasing their debut EP Out of the Water in 2022, followed by Find Our Way (2023) and Swell (2024), the duo have toured sold-out venues across Europe and Australia, and supported artists like Jeremy Loops and Ziggy Alberts.
Their songs explore everything from mental health to new love, inner reflection to wide-eyed curiosity, grounded always in a deep sense of place and purpose. Whether playing in iconic European venues, on a gondola in the Swiss Alps, or in the stillness of their hometown, Salt Tree’s music reminds us that even when we feel adrift, we’re never truly lost.
