Australia’s LARGE MIRAGE aren’t reviving classic rock - they are proving it never stopped evolving and  are bringing musicianship, melody and genuine live performance back to guitar music.  

In an era dominated by programmed beats and disposable singles, LARGE MIRAGE have built their reputation the old-fashioned way: writing memorable songs, delivering explosive live performances and earning every new fan one stage show at a time.

Across two acclaimed EPs - A Side To Blame (2023) and Wings Of Time (2025) - the band have forged a sound that blends psychedelic rock, melodic hard rock and power-pop with swirling guitars, hypnotic rhythms, intricate basslines, and choruses that refuse to leave your head. Their music is equally at home alongside contemporary acts, as it is with timeless music that has inspired generations.

At the centre is songwriter, guitarist and vocalist Kolya Chan, whose understated charisma and compelling guitar playing have become one of the band’s defining trademarks. Whether delivering intimate melodies or extended psychedelic solos, Chan commands attention without demanding it - a quality that has helped establish LARGE MIRAGE as one of Australia’s most exciting young live bands.

That reputation has grown rapidly.

The band were personally selected to open two sold-out Sydney stadium shows for AC/DC at Accor Stadium, introducing their music to more than 130,000 rock fans over two unforgettable nights. Since then, LARGE MIRAGE have sold-out headline shows in Sydney and Melbourne while sharing stages with The Screaming Jets, Amyl & The Sniffers, TISM, Belair Lip Bombs and a growing list of Australia’s most respected rock acts.

Their festival appearances include Woodford Folk Festival, Lost Paradise, Party In The Paddock, Night At The Barracks, Meatstock and King Street Crawl, while their headline performance launching Sydney's underground Pleasure Club cemented their reputation as one of the country's most captivating emerging live acts.

Chan is still being stopped on the street (in Coles, at Bunnings, JB HI-FI, by Martin Place ‘suits’, in restaurants and at night haunts) by audience members who just want to shake his hand to let him know how blown away they were by his blistering performances.

Reviewer’s acclaim has been equally enthusiastic.

Scenestr described their stadium performance by saying, "It's clear why AC/DC chose them as a support."

The Rockpit declared, "Large Mirage are the real deal."

Other reviewers have praised the band for "reinventing classic rock with fresh fire" - a sentiment echoed by growing audiences discovering a band that feels nostalgic, original and unmistakably contemporary.

In July 2026, LARGE MIRAGE return with their single Wildfire, the first taste of their forthcoming third EP.

Recorded with acclaimed producer Michael Badger (King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Amyl & The Sniffers, You Am I, Full Flower Moon Band), Wildfire captures everything that has made the band impossible to ignore: towering riffs, soaring melodies, emotionally direct lyrics, fearless guitar work, and a rhythm section that never lets up.

With appearances confirmed aboard Rock The Boat 2026 and Scotland's legendary BONFEST 2027, LARGE MIRAGE continue to build an international profile while remaining fiercely independent.

They aren't chasing trends.

They're building a repertoire.

They're building a following.

And they're reminding a new generation why great rock bands still matter.
