Dear Joey and Brooke, What a wild ride! I just wanted to write to express …
Chase those winter blues away with King Brown’s sweltering debut EP, Out In The Desert.

It’s a bluesy, nostalgic number with searing riffs that will catapult you straight back to the 60s. It’s also a celebration of the sound the band has worked so hard to establish these last few years. So whether you’re looking for a more traditional take on the blues (see: Moto) or a cool as a cucumber indie number (see: Oyzo), King Brown has got you covered.
Out In The Desert is versatile, yet dynamic, and it has delivered on all the hype
And if the band’s ability to weave a killer soundscape doesn’t impress you, their unique style of storytelling will. While Lucky is a standout (how could it not be when it was written from the perspective of a stray dog just doing his thing?), the EP is all kinds of feel good and it will send your serotonin levels through the roof.
When King Brown first stepped onto the Western Australian scene in 2019, a massive future looked to be a certainty. Out In The Desert is versatile, yet dynamic, and it has delivered on all the hype. Exuding good vibes, it is a record built for long drives, sunny weather and mates. Crack open a cold one, and give a shout to one of the most exciting names in Aus rock right now.
STANDOUT TRACKS: Moto, Lucky, Oyzo
