WHAT IT IS: One band, two songwriters and over 20 years of friendship form the foundation of country-pop duo Seaforth. Named after the Sydney suburb they once called home, songwriters Tom Jordan and Mitch Thompson have created one of country’s most recognizable sounds. After making the 9,000-mile move from the beaches of Northern Australia to Nashville, they officially teamed up, combining their genre-jumping songwriting chops, elastic voices and layered harmonies. After drawing inspiration from Sean Kingston’s 2007 hit “Beautiful Girls,” Seaforth collaborated with him on “Queen of Daytona Beach.”
