DMA'S are an Australian three-piece rock band formed in 2012 in Sydney. The band is composed of Matt Mason, Tommy O'Dell, and Johnny Took.[1] They gained popularity for their debut single "Delete" and for their self-titled EP released in 2014.[2] Their musical sound has led to comparisons to the band Oasis.[3]

In early 2016, the band released a full-length album titled Hills End.[1] It peaked at number 8 on the ARIA Albums Chart upon release in March 2016.[4] In April 2016 they appeared on the cover of Australian magazine, Happy Mag.[5] Their song "Play it Out" features as one of the songs on FIFA 17, the EA Sports video game.[6]

DMA'S cover of Cher's "Believe" was charted at number 6 on Triple J's Hottest 100 2016 list.[7] The video received over 5 million views on YouTube[8] and became the first Like a Version cover to ever rank this highly in the Hottest 100.
