The Mavis'sBrother & Sister fronted Australian alt-pop icons The Mavis’s return in 2026 with their brand new single “Heaven” - release date Tuesday 24 February distributed worldwide by Xelon Digital.
Bursting with the band’s unmistakable melodic flair and emotional punch, “Heaven” delivers bittersweet lyrics with an enormously danceable sound, marking an exciting new creative chapter for one of Australia’s most beloved and enduring bands.
“Make the sun shine brighter like
Formed in 1987 as teenagers, The Mavis’s began as a four-piece post-punk rock band named after a cat. They quickly built a reputation for creativity, heartfelt songwriting, sibling harmonies and unforgettable live shows. Their first gig was in a church hall with just four songs — the start of a journey that would cement their status - first as cult favourites and then widely recognised as Australian music treasures.
Rising to national prominence in the late '90s, The Mavis’s earned critical acclaim and multiple ARIA Award nominations, including Single of the Year and Song of the Year for their 1998 hit “Cry".
The brother-and-sister duo Matt Thomas and Beki (Colada) Thomas share a rare musical connection, often finishing each other's sentences and communicating in their own language.
They teamed up with acclaimed music producer Mark Opitz (AC/DC, INXS, Cold Chisel, Divinyls, KISS): Together bringing the magic of the song to life.
"For me, it always comes back to the music and the artists. This collaboration has real electricity, and 'Heaven' carries that spark. We've made something honest, loud in spirit, and built to connect." - Mark Optiz
"The Mavis's are to Australia what A-ha are to Norway: masters of perfectly crafted pop, renowned for their exuberant live shows and their trademark mix of sparkle, sass and sequins. Few bands radiate such joy." - Jane Gazzo, Music Journalist, Presenter, Curator, DJ and Music Lover
To celebrate the release of Heaven, The Mavis's will return to the stage for a national Australian tour, performing new music alongside fan-favourite classics. -
