“I’ve Got You My Friend” opens with Veloo’s signature melodic guitar riff that hooks you from the first second, building through warm acoustic layers, driving bass and a soaring chorus that bursts into pure euphoria. It lands with a choir of voices chanting na na na na na, turning a song about friendship into a communal celebration. Think Sam Fender meets Beddy Rays… with a Guitar Hero!
Inspired by a dream of a melody that wouldn’t let him go, it became a song for the people who lift us up when life gets heavy. It’s made for festivals, summer road trips, air guitar and singing along with your best mates.
Not many artists can shred with soul, write from the heart and still sound like the future. Sanny Veloo is changing that.
Of Southeast Asian and Australian heritage, born in Singapore and forged in Melbourne’s rock scene, Veloo built his following from the ground up through open-mic nights, sweaty live shows, word of mouth and reels capturing his raw, high-energy performances.
His gigs have become loud, communal celebrations where crowds sing every word, guitars soar and 150-cap rooms pack out fast. His first international headline show in Singapore sold out.
Now, with I’ve Got You My Friend, Veloo is taking his music on the road for his independently booked Album Launch Tour, bringing the record’s heart, grit and anthemic energy to stages across Adelaide, Sydney and Melbourne. Each night is a loud, unfiltered celebration of friendship, connection, and the return of honest, emotional guitar music and hope.
After a run of sold-out Melbourne shows and his first international headline in Singapore, Sanny Veloo takes his debut album I’ve Got You My Friend on the road this November.
It’s his first national run as a solo artist, a tour built from the ground up that’s turning small rooms into big sing-alongs. Veloo’s proving himself as one of the most exciting new independent voices in Australian rock right now.
I’ve Got You My Friend is an emotional Australian rock record built on connection and resilience. Bold and melodic, it blends grit, heart and hope, finding beauty in the chaos of life through songs of loss, love and renewal.
Across nine tracks, it moves from protest and passion to reflection and release, written for bright lights, festival stages and long summer drives with your best mates.
At its core is Veloo’s unmistakable Rock / Indie sound: fearless guitar work, honest vocals and a deep emotional pulse. It’s the sound of connection and catharsis, melodic storytelling charged with honesty and heart.
Produced by: Michael Badger (Amyl & the Sniffers, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard) and Sanny Veloo
Mixed by: Darrell Thorpe (Beck, Radiohead) and Michael Badger
Mastered by: Joe Carra (Courtney Barnett)
Sanny Veloo makes Australian rock that’s fearless, heartfelt and built for connection.
Born in Singapore and now based in Melbourne, Veloo’s story has always been about pushing forward. He first made waves fronting a rebellious punk band in Singapore that was banned for its outspoken edge, before carrying that fire into EMPRA, a DIY rock powerhouse that collaborated with Gotye, toured with G Flip and shared stages with British India.
After stepping away from music to care for his father, Veloo returned with new purpose and a fresh sound. His singles A Brighter Tomorrow and Love Has Set You Free earned international recognition and built a loyal grassroots following.
With his debut solo album I’ve Got You My Friend out 23 November 2025, Veloo channels grit, heart and emotion into a sound that feels bold, honest and unmistakably alive.

THE STORY BEHIND MY NEW LOGO 🤘🏽☀️
If you’ve ever seen me play live, you’ve met my 1991 Gibson Custom Shop Explorer. It basically lives in my hands. On it: the legendary OM Sun sticker. 🌞🕉️
Quick nerd side note: OM (pronounced AUM) is believed to be the primordial sound, the vibration the universe was born from. Pretty heavy metal when you think about it, right?
Flashback to Santa Monica Beach, LA:
I wander into a tourist-hippie shop, mesmerised by sandalwood incense and a shop owner who looked like he was still on his acid trip from Woodstock.
The sticker glows at me from the rack like: “Bro… I’ve been waiting for you. Stick me on something that SHREDS. You won’t regret it.”
So I bought it.
And then, like a dragon hoarding its gold, I kept it hidden in my bedroom drawer for YEARS. Because ✨the moment, the intention, and the music had to be right✨.
Fast-forward: I choose the Explorer as the heart of my solo project.
Sticker goes on and… BAM. It instantly becomes 100 times more rocking and sexy. Songs and solos start pouring out like I just unlocked:
“Guitar Hero: Spiritual Awakening.” 🎸⚡️
It became my Pick of Destiny. No Jack Black required.
Fast-forward to a month ago: time for a logo.
My brain goes: “What if OM Sun becomes The Sanny Veloo Brand?”
So I snap a pic of the sticker, feed it into ChatGPT like some Steve-Vai-summoning cybermagic, overlay Ted’s 🔥 font design, tidy up the edges in Photoshop and…
💥 BOOM 💥
My Sanny Veloo logo was born.
And honestly, I adore it. It is soulful. It is powerful. It is bright. It is sexy. It inspires confidence.
It screams: YES you GOT this!
I am 99 percent sure I am getting it tattooed (name removed… OM back in). Maybe even right on the throat chakra! Big statement energy!
What do you think. Should I go for it? 👀👇
Maybe just on a tshirt for now until after the holiday back home to see Dear Rani (Mum) 😉
If you have read this far… thank you Boss 🌅
Pre-save my debut album. Link in bio. Let’s show the world that real guitar music and real OM energy is exactly what 2025 needs. ✨🤘

I’VE GOT YOU MY FRIEND – My Debut Solo Album
Out 23 November 2025
Hey Rockstars!
I’ve been building toward this moment for almost three years, and it’s finally here. Now I need you to help me make it count by pre-saving my debut solo album.
This record is my heart on my sleeve: soulful, modern rock with big guitars, big choruses, and an even bigger heart.
Written through love, loss, and renewal, it finds beauty in life’s chaos and ends with a message of unity and hope. It’s cinematic. It’s emotional. It’s music with heart and soul.
Your pre-save tells the streaming platforms that real, human, guitar-driven music still matters.
I’m doing this independently, with no label, no manager, no agent — just passion, persistence, and you.
Thank you for every open mic, band show, pre-sale ticket, singalong, and word of encouragement along the way. You’ve kept me going through this incredible journey.
Let’s take it further than ever before.
Let’s turn these songs into life-long memories this coming summer.
Pre-save “I’ve Got You My Friend” now.
