Platonic Sex Follow-up ‘90s-Rock Elegy 'Impress You' With New Single ‘Easy’

[Friday, May 30, 2025] – While touring with Ball Park Music, Magandgin/Brisbane band Platonic Sex unveil ‘Easy’, a pop-rock confessional steeped in the nostalgic hum of a worn-out cassette. The track layers honeycomb sweetness with a raw edge, preserving fleeting memories of early romance until intimacy's currency dwindles and the initial thrill subsides.

“My verse in this song was written when I was in high school”, says Jane Millroy. “It was a whole song that never went anywhere, until it just fit – one of those puzzle piece songs.”

“We often write about the in-between stages of love”, says Brandolini, adding, “It’s so effortless to fall into intimacy with someone, but if it’s not the right match, it can become transactional.”

Recorded with the acclaimed Antonia Gauci (GAUCI, The Buoys, Body Type, Ripple Effect Band) at Golden Retriever Studios and polished to perfection back home with Sam Cromack (Ball Park Music, Asha Jefferies, Bean Magazine) at Prawn Studios, ‘Easy’ joins ‘Impress You’ in showcasing Platonic Sex's eager progression into exciting new territory.

Catapulting into 2025 as Best Rock Song finalists at the Queensland Music Awards, Platonic Sex embarked on an energetic all-ages weekender, playing the inaugural She Can Rage party in Gadigal Land / Sydney, and a sell-out DIY headliner in Magandgin / Brisbane, in collaboration with Anti Dismal. Adding to their growing momentum, Platonic Sex received a notable mention as a band to watch during the national TV broadcast of the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras parade.
