Following a whirlwind 2024 featuring their SH!T YEAH EP, a co-headline tour with Teenage Joans, and beyond, Australia’s Between You & Me announced that they’re heading into a hiatus of sorts.
They note on social media, “After being a band for over 8 years, it feels like 2024 was a culmination of a lot of hard work. It also feels like a year where we finally reached ‘the finish line’ for Between You & Me. For the first time, BYAM headlined in the UK & USA. A dream we never thought could be possible -selling out shows on the other side of the world. We released our independent EP ‘SH!T YEAH’. We also headlined Australia, twice, Including our biggest ever shows and heading to regional Australia for the first time.”
They continue, “In an industry where you are always looking for the next big opportunity and continuously feeling unfulfilled, 2024 was our year to reflect on the wild things we’ve been able to achieve. The journey for us has been slow and gradual with a lot of bumps in the road, but for a band without a label or management, it’s time to smell the roses.”

The band shares, “We’ve spent our lives chasing the ‘dream’ and for now, we are content with taking time away from BYAM. A hiatus if you will, but more so time and space to live our adult existence. We’re not sure what’s next for BYAM, or if there will be anything more, and if this is it, we are immensely grateful for the journey we were able to go on.”
Between You & Me concludes, “Thank you to everyone for a special 2024. To those that came to a show, bought some merch, said hello, listened to our music. We are truly thankful that you decided to support 5 people from Australia chasing their dreams.”
idobi Radio wishes each member of BYAM restful days ahead. We hope to see the band in action one day again, but if not, we will still be here listening to the discography on repeat.
