Melbourne folk-pop duo Pierce Brothers have released their latest single "Back End Roads," the first taste of new music that will be featured on their upcoming full-length debut album, 'Atlas Shoulders!' Featuring drums reminiscent of Fleetwood Mac's Dreams and a chorus embedded in the Australian folk realm, Back End Roads is destined to be an instant fan favourite. Talking about the single the brothers reminisced, "We wrote it about our favorite place on earth, Wilson's Prom, and how it was when we grew up there. It's a summer vibe tune plain and simple. About getting away from the grind and a throwback to the more mellow summer anthems that dominated our youth."
