UK indie-pop five-piece easy life are excited to announce they are coming to Australia for the very first time this August for a pair of intimate shows in Sydney and Melbourne. Taking place in just eight short weeks, these two performances will celebrate the release of their forthcoming second album, ‘MAYBE IN ANOTHER LIFE…’ – out 12th August on Island Records.
Tickets on sale 10am, Thu 30th June →HERE easy life first stormed Australian airwaves with the release of their much-loved debut album ‘life’s a beach’ in 2021, which was named triple j feature album and lauded by the station for its “deeply personal and observational storytelling in a warm, woozy, sun drenched sonic blanket.”
At home in the UK, the fast-rising act would sell-out shows ranging from 2 nights at London’s O2 Brixton Academy to an arena show in their hometown of Leicester.
Barely a year later, the five-piece have dropped the brand new track ‘DEAR MISS HOLLOWAY’, which features Kevin Abstract and arrives alongside an incredible, claymation video directed by Will Child (Young Thug, Drake, 100 Gecs). The track received its first play by Zane Lowe with easy life and Kevin Abstract also featured on New Music Daily on Apple Music.

The single is the second to be lifted from easy life’s upcoming album ‘MAYBE IN ANOTHER LIFE…’: a melancholic, uplifting and hugely sophisticated new record that will challenge people’s expectations whilst easy life continue to unassumingly scale new heights. Murray’s world-class production absorbs influences ranging from the manic hip-hop energy of Odd Future to a colourful visual palette, as inspired by classic Disney animation as it is the dreamlike art noveau of Wes Anderson. If ‘life’s a beach’ was easy life sunny-side-up – a rounded, realist study of Middle England – it’s on the lockdown make-believe of ‘MAYBE IN ANOTHER LIFE…’ that Murray’s shank-sharp observations about modern British life hit hardest: first single ‘BEESWAX’, for instance, is a deadpan paean about oversharing online, the need for privacy post-pandemic, and establishing boundaries.
In 2022, easy life – an escapist band, formed on the hedonistic outlook of ‘no regrets’ – appear compelled to put their ethos to the test. An idea birthed by ‘DEAR MISS HOLLOWAY’, ‘MAYBE IN ANOTHER LIFE…’ became this record about how our choices define us, for better and worse, and a way to make peace with things we can’t control. What’s emerged is an expertly-realised vision of masculinity, which encourages us – whether via opening up, or exuberant world-building – to find joy in the journey, not just the destination. Here is an album for unprecedented times, from the undoubted band of the moment.
Don’t miss the opportunity to see one of the world’s hottest upcoming acts, up-close-and-personal, in Sydney and Melbourne! Tickets on sale Thursday 30th June HERE

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
