Alt-Rock outfit OK Hotel share their raucous new single ‘Get Out’. The high energy, riff heavy, chorus driven track alludes to more things to come from the trio this year.
Forming in Wollongong Australia, OK Hotel are a melodic-driven, alt-rock outfit — featuring Josh Fogarty (Vocals and Guitar), Liam Jordan (Bass and Vocals) and Chris Peruch (Drums) — whose sound is tinged with the grit of 90’s post-punk, emo and grunge influences.
OK Hotel spent the early half of 2022 back in the studio recording their new EP with the first single “Get Out” released 13th March 2023. Produced and Mixed by Fletcher Matthews (Trophy Eyes, The Buoys, Dear Seattle, CLEWS) and Mastered in the US by Will Yip (Turnstile, Lauren Hill, Tigers Jaw, Title Fight).
Vocalist and guitarist Josh Fogarty had this to say about the new single: “‘Get Out’ is about wondering if you’ll ever float up to the surface by yourself. You can see when the next breath of air should be coming but everything about getting there feels completely out of control, almost like you’re drowning on someone else’s behalf.”
The clip for ‘Get Out”, filmed by Brae Fisher (Dear Seattle) and edited by Liam Jordan (OK Hotel) saw the band travel 16hrs to Moree, NSW to an almost abandoned aeroplane hanger-like pool/hotel built in the 1980’s. Bass player and Video editor Liam Jordan commented that ‘it had an instant atmosphere, was like a big sandbox for us to play in’
