Josh Orange – “Believers & Dreamers (What have We Become)”

Josh Orange’s latest single, “Believers & Dreamers (What Have We Become)” is wonderful. The band leans into their two-decade history to deliver a track that feels both seasoned and freshly agitated. There’s a tension running through the song that doesn’t let up, a feeling like someone’s finally decided to say what’s been simmering under the surface for too long.

The vocals match that energy, gritty, direct, and unapologetic, it’s not about polish; it’s about getting the point across, and they do it with conviction. The collaboration with Kaela Harp from the Sydney Orchestra adds an unexpected layer. Harp and rock don’t usually share space, but here it works. There’s also a bit of raw spontaneity in the way the saxophone found its way in, which only adds to the track’s organic energy. You can tell this was made by people who care, not just about sound, but about what they’re saying.

If you’re into music that actually says something, give this a spin. And make sure to follow Josh Orange online to stay up to date on new releases dropping through the rest of 2025.
