Sons Of The East Announces New Album “SONS”, Shares New Song “Rescue Me”
Australian indie folk band Sons Of The East, consisting of Jack Rollins (vocals/guitar), Nic Johnston (vocals/keyboards) and Dan Wallage (guitar/banjo), has announced their upcoming sophomore album “SONS” will be released on June 13, 2025 via MGM.
It is their first album in three years since the 2022 album “Palomar Parade”.
The band said of the album, “Amidst two years of relentless touring, we found ourselves a little studio near home in Sydney and began shaping what’s now our sophomore album, SONS. Some songs started on the road, others at home or in the studio, but they all took on a life of their own. We can’t wait for you to hear them.”
From the album, the band released the first single called “Rescue Me” on March 11, 2025.
The song evolves from an intimate acoustic confession into a soaring declaration of joy, ending with the band’s signature harmonies.
It was written by Bry Jones, Dan Wallage, Jack Rollins, and Nic Johnston. Produced by Bry Jones and Nic Johnston.- Nic Johnston said of the song, “This tune actually came about from a jam we had ages ago - one we kept coming back to over the years. The very first voice memo of it is absolute chaos, with one of us singing ‘how out of time are we’ as the opening line, which didn’t fit at all. We ended up recording two complete versions before we finally captured the energy we were chasing. Like so many of our songs, even though it hints at heartbreak, it’s really an upbeat, hopeful song.”
