  • pete ross and the sapphire cvr webAfter nearly a decade living in and touring Europe, Pete Ross and The Sapphire return to Australia with their self-titled album — a collection that traces the band’s journey through their years overseas. 

    The self-titled album is released 1 October 2026 o through  Australian labels Outtaspace Records (vinyl) and CD on I-94 Bar Records. Pre-orders for the CD are open here.

    Formed in 2011, the Australian and New Zealand duo of Pete Ross (guitar and vocals) and Susy Sapphire (bass and vocals) is now based in Sydney after performing extensively across France, Spain, Germany, Italy and beyond.

    Their music found a home with acclaimed French label Beast Records, releasing “Rollin’ On Down The Lane” (2012) and “The Boundless Expanse” (2015), while continuing to build a reputation through live performances and festival appearances.
