Career

The band issued their debut self-titled extended play in August 2013, which provided their single, "Come Away".[1] In November 2015, they released another EP, Already Gone.[5]

In May 2019, Sons Of The East released their third studio EP, Burn Right Through, featuring singles Nothing Comes Easy, Silver Lining and It Must Be Luck.[6] The ABC's Dan Condon said of the single, "It Must Be Luck is a guaranteed starter on just about every wedding playlist from here on in", while describing the band as a "rootsy, uber-chilled group with really close-knit harmonies and really strong, pretty songs."[7][8]

gollark: I see. That would probably be worse.
gollark: What, sing it yourself...?
gollark: But what was the answer‽
gollark: Something like that.
