Barely ten months after the Sydney guitar-drums duo blew up the party punch with their spring-loaded debut album, Alright Already, ARIA Award nominees Polish Club have surprised fans today with the release of six fresh tunes on their Okie Dokie EP. Featuring new single Gimme Money, the new EP is available today in digital format and a limited edition 10” mustard coloured vinyl is available for pre-order here.
As drummer John Henry shrugs, “We’re not here to f*ck around, our process is pretty quick and easy so we might as well keep up the pace. We wrote Gimme Money a week or two before recording.”
Singer-guitarist Novak remembers the stand-and-deliver sentiment of Gimme Money arising from a broader concept about making the entire EP about a possible imminent apocalypse. “You know, so maybe we should make as much music as we can before the world blows up. My mind just naturally took that into ‘God, how hard is it being in a band?’ Which it isn’t, really, but … there’s a lot of misconceptions about the rewards of being in a working rock band,” he says with a laugh, recalling the blood and madness of Polish Club’s 15-date sold-out tour of the country in May.
Recording at a new studio, Golden Retriever in Marrickville provided the opportunity for the duo to refine their sound. “It sounds more like how we sound live. Sonically big, rounded… and swinging like it’s in a big hurry,” says Henry.
What we have is another utterly essential Polish Club recording that will slam you sideways against the nearest wall and refuse to apologise. Give ’em your money, and nobody needs to get hurt.
Catch Okie Dokie and other infectious material at the Polish Club ‘Christmas in December’ national tour this festive season.

AMNPLIFY – DB
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.
