Australian Band Rum Jungle Released New EP, Hold Me In The Water

On The Table Read Magazine, “the best entertainment magazine in the UK“, Australian sun-soaked band, Rum Jungle, released new seven track EP, Hold Me In The Water, inspired by the hurdles the band have faced over the last year or two.

Rum Jungle

Australia’s sun soaked band Rum Jungle, from the steel city, Newcastle, blend surf rock and alt-pop to create pop melodies with psych guitars and chilled groove beats. With a plethora of sounds and styles, Rum Jungle have a sound that is distinctly their own, and their latest EP, Hold Me In The Water, demonstrates just that. 

The four piece band Rum Jungle have developed a devoted fan base off the back of their three previous EPs, Everything Is Easy, Crazy Days and Sun & Smoke. Having established themselves in the tour circuit with sold out shows around the country and festival appearances, Rum Jungle are joining Groovin the Moo, This That, Rolling Sets, Falls Festival and upcoming showcases at SXSW. They also currently have the most played track on triple j radio and have had the pleasure of performing their prestigious segment “Like A Version.” 

Hold Me In The Water

New seven track EP, Hold Me In The Water, is inspired by the hurdles the band have faced over the last year or two. Covering everything from their rough spots, to their mad highs, it follows them on their experiences as a band, resulting in something which is honest, raw and relatable.

After a lot of exploration in their previous releases, Hold Me In The Water, sees the band finally finding their sound to take listeners on a rollercoaster journey, with an introduction that is miles apart from its finale, keeping you on your toes with each and every track. From the colossal sounding drums and obnoxious vocals in “Electric Snowman” right through to the lethargic simplicity of “Nervous,” there really is something for everyone. 

You’ll hear some chargers and you’ll hear some chillers that next to each other will be surprising but all have that signature Rum Jungle sound. We’re all stoked on each and every one of these tracks and we’ve put more than we ever have into getting each of them right. Just like our last EP’s we want it to crank on right out the gate but close out with something you can cruise on low to.

These tunes are all unique with what they’re about and some have some real introspective thoughts on dynamics in relationships whereas some others are truly just about having a good time
