From 1996–2010, Epicure carved out a singular place in Australian music, releasing four acclaimed studio albums, selling out headline shows nationwide, and touring alongside artists including Powderfinger, Silverchair, John Butler Trio, Gomez, Live and Train.
A staple of the Australian festival circuit throughout the early 2000s, the band’s breakthrough album The Goodbye Girl became a defining release of the era, producing three entries in the Triple J Hottest 100 across 2003 and 2004.
Their signature anthem Armies Against Me reached the ARIA Top 100 Singles Chart and landed at #21 in the 2003 Hottest 100 countdown, while 2005 single Tightrope Walker added a fourth entry to the band’s Hottest 100 legacy.
After quietly disbanding in 2010 following a farewell national tour, Epicure briefly reunited in 2015 for two sold out Victorian performances. Now, more than a decade later, the band return with renewed purpose and an entirely new body of work.
The first taste of the new era arrived with Is There Any Way Out Now? Driven by thunderous guitars, urgent rhythms and a haunting refrain, the single captures the emotional weight and intensity that made Epicure one of Australia’s most distinctive rock bands. The song was immediately added to high rotation on Double J radio.
