Pocketwatch Break Out!


Sydney’s own pocketwatch is set to release their latest EP, *Break Out*, on August 16, 2024. This four-track EP continues to showcase the band’s established power pop sound while exploring new creative directions.

*Break Out* opens with the hard-hitting track “Timetaker” and features the well-loved live staple “Drown” as its lead single. The EP also includes “Entwined,” a classic power pop tune, and “Rosemary,” a ballad with a distinct Beatle-esque touch. Together, these tracks highlight the band’s versatility and dedication to crafting engaging music.

The EP was recorded at Sydney’s renowned Hercules Street Studios, known for its rich rock history, with production by Wayne Connolly, a multi-ARIA Award winner recognized for his work with You Am I, The Vines, and Youth Group. The collaboration brings a refined yet raw quality to the EP, blending nostalgia with a modern edge.

“We’re pleased to share *Break Out* with our listeners. Working with Wayne Connolly and recording in such a historically significant studio has been a rewarding experience,” said Angus Ross, lead vocalist and guitarist of pocketwatch. “This EP represents a meaningful step forward for us, integrating our traditional sound with new influences.”
