Indie rockers Valley Onda unveiled a new single titled ‘Minacious’ via Valley Onda Records, along with a mind-bending music video, on July 18th, 2025. The profoundly textured single 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 War and 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. ‘Minacious’ follows 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 Radiohead, The Doors and The Black Angels.
The track blends Western-tinged cinematic tension with brooding synths, mysterious guitars, and a towering vocal performance punctuated by spacious effects and atmospheric textures. ‘Minacious’ offers the listener a bold, genre-defying journey into fear, transformation, and transcendence.
