SECOND IDOL Packs a Punch with 'Boxing Ring' - A Defiant Anthem from Sydney's Rock Scene



Sydney's own SECOND IDOL releases 'Boxing Ring,' a compelling single that challenges the music industry's status quo, capturing the essence of 90's rock and alternative with an unapologetically feminist roar.

SECOND IDOL, the Eora/Sydney-based alternative rock powerhouse, marks a striking entry into 2024 with their electrifying single 'Boxing Ring.' Produced by the acclaimed Clayton Segelov at The Brain Studios, 'Boxing Ring' is a visceral reflection of the band's journey and the challenges faced by women in the music industry. With Kate Olivia leading the charge with her [assionate vocals, the track is an anthem of defiance, authenticity, and solidarity.


Delving into the industry's harsh realities, 'Boxing Ring' is a call to arms against what the band described as "the circus that women, non-binary, and trans musicians navigate daily." It's a narrative on the continuous battle for recognition, respect, and space in a domain that often feels like a gladiatorial arena. The single is a testament to SECOND IDOL's resolve to fight the stereotypes, prejudices, and systemic barriers that persist in the music scene.



Accompanying the single is a captivating music video directed by Cameron Davies, which sets the band against the backdrop of Brighton Le Sands and Sydney's Inner West. The video, with its enigmatic visuals and VHS-style aesthetics, perfectly complements the song's gritty, unyielding spirit.


As SECOND IDOL prepares for a series of live shows across Sydney and beyond, 'Boxing Ring' stands as a powerful statement of the band's artistic identity and their commitment to championing the cause of marginalized musicians. With this release, SECOND IDOL showcases their musical prowess but also reinforces their position as a vital voice in the conversation around equality and diversity in the music industry.
