EXCLUSIVE: Wild Honey Take Us Track-By-Track Through Their Debut EP

Sun-blessed pop-rockers Wild Honey are only a few days beyond the release of their self-titled debut EP, which made its way into the world officially on Friday, and theMusic.com.au is privileged to share an exclusive track-by-track rundown of the tracks therein today.

Opening cut Eye To Eye may already be familiar to discerning listeners, who may have come across it on triple j Unearthed, where it drew the attention of Richard Kingsmill and Zan Rowe, ultimately gaining spot rotation on the station. The song is just the first taste of a wider release steeped in the scenes and sounds of summer, with frontman Thom Moore explaining:

"A friend of mine had recently taken over a beachside apartment at Tamarama, which had an adjoining purpose-built rehearsal studio. Most weekends that summer we pretty much divided our time between surfing and jamming. There were no grand plans to release the music; but as the summer drew to a close I felt there were enough ideas to have a crack at recording a few songs."

The EP was self-recorded and produced in Moore's Bondi flat, with mixing by Simon Todkill (The Rubens, Cold Chisel, George Maple).

Wild Honey hit the road again early next year, kicking off 2016 with a show at Newtown's Waywards on Friday 8 January, with further headline dates in Sydney (Beach Road, 20 January) and Ben & Jerry's OpenAir Cinemas Bondi (Saturday 27 February), with a pair of shows alongside Gooch Palms in-between (Cambridge, Newcastle, Saturday 20 February; Oxford Art Factory, Sydney, Friday 25 February).
