Dalliance Soundtrack (2026) Guide
Dalliance is an Australian drama series streaming on Paramount+ that follows Billy, a retired cameraman in his sixties who has been happily married to Rose for forty years, until a fateful encounter with a chef named Dani on a Sydney Harbour ferry upends his life. When their unexpected relationship comes to a sudden and shocking halt, Billy's close-knit circle of lifelong friends is forced to confront long-buried secrets, fracturing marriages, and the messy realities of love, sex, and second chances in their sixties.
With a rich mix of Australian pub-rock classics, heartland folk, and quiet Americana ballads, the soundtrack for the Dalliance miniseries defines the mood of the 2026 drama. A major standout of the music selection is the official companion EP recorded by Sarah Blasko, featuring new covers of iconic folk songs like Blaze Foley’s 'If I Could Only Fly' and John Prine’s 'Killing The Blues'. From high-energy rock tracks to understated acoustic moments across its six episodes, this guide covers every song in the limited series alongside episode breakdowns, artist details, and direct streaming links.
Across its six episodes, the Dalliance miniseries pairs emotional storylines with a memorable selection of classic Australian and international tracks. The show opens with a strong nostalgic feel, highlighting Paul Kelly’s 'Made For Me' (featuring Rebecca Barnard) alongside pub-rock favorites like Hunters & Collectors’ 'Throw Your Arms Around Me' and The Angels’ 'Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again'. The soundtrack keeps a steady balance between raw rock energy and quiet character moments, featuring timeless cuts from The Band ('The Shape I'm In') and The Proclaimers ('Sunshine On Leith').
