The Old Bar and BDK RECORDS present:
BACK POCKET - launch
With guests THE GENEVIEVES + EQUESTRIAN FIELDS
The Old Bar (Fitzroy, VIC)
Friday, 28 August 2026 8:00 pm
Thin Skin, out Friday 8th August via BDK Records, is the sophomore EP of Naarm-based alternative rock band, Back Pocket.
The EP marks the beginning of a new synthesiser-led chapter for the band, in an evolution that leans deeper into their new wave influences, while remaining true to the group’s trademark dolewave-meets-riot grrrl sound.
Back Pocket will launch the EP on Friday 28th August at the Old Bar playing alongside the Genevieves (SA), who are also celebrating the release of their latest single, ‘Sprinkler,’ which explores the catharsis in processing life and loss through our relationships with dogs; how grieving a strong, yet short-lived bond reminds us of our own mortality and how all relationships will ultimately reach a conclusion.
Supporting the pair of powerhouses will be local stars Equestrian Fields."
