Seaforth

Hailing originally from Australia yet making their mark in Nashville, Seaforth blends bright pop hooks with introspective country storytelling through the duo’s signature close harmonies. Tom Jordan and Mitch Thompson, lifelong friends who met before kindergarten, waited nearly twenty years before combining their songwriting and vocal skills as a unit. They quickly built an American following, beginning with the 2019 debut EP Love That, whose polished contemporary-country sound leaned on pop melodies and studio sheen; the track “Talk to Me” quickly gained traction on streaming platforms. Further momentum arrived via the singles “Talk About” (2020), “Breakups” (2021), “Good Beer” (2022), “I Can't Take You Anywhere” (2023), and “Get the Girl” (2023).

Vocalists and songwriters Tom Jordan and Mitch Thompson formed Seaforth and took the name from the Sydney suburb where both were born and raised. The pair had known each other since age three and started creating music early on. At eleven, Jordan penned “Back Home,” drawn from the boredom of shopping trips with his mother, and the composition earned him Best Original Composition honors at the 2005 Music and Arts Talent Search Teen Writers competition. He sharpened his craft through street performances around Sydney before appearing onstage with INXS, Natalie Bassingthwaighte, and Guy Sebastian. Thompson, meanwhile, performed in school productions and joined the rock band Is It Her at thirteen; the group built a regional audience, selling out venues and supporting the Black Sorrows, the Radiators, and Daryl Braithwaite. Thompson later competed on the Australian edition of The Voice in 2012 and returned to national television the next year on The X-Factor.

Jordan and Thompson officially launched Seaforth in 2015. Their harmonies and fusion of pop and country elements drew praise locally and attracted attention in Nashville. After multiple U.S. writing trips, they relocated to Music City in 2017, secured a recording contract with RCA Records Nashville, and refined their studio approach. April 2019 brought the four-song debut EP Love That, which featured the streaming favorite “Talk to Me.” Later that year the duo joined Mitchell Tenpenny on “Anything She Says,” and in 2020 they issued a series of heartfelt singles highlighted by the streaming success “Talk About.” The more somber “Breakups” arrived in 2021, followed in 2022 by the relaxed “Good Beer,” a collaboration with country-pop artist Jordan Davis. Also in 2022, Seaforth delivered the eight-track EP What I Get for Loving You, which collected earlier singles including “Good Beer” and “Breakups” alongside fresh material such as the title track and “Queen of Daytona Beach,” the latter featuring Sean Kingston. Their final RCA Nashville release, the 2023 single “I Can't Take You Anywhere,” preceded a move to their own imprint, Get In Records. The new label’s first output was “Get the Girl,” quickly followed by “Been Better,” “Loud Music,” and “A Year and Some Change.”
