History

2017–2021: Formation and Strawberries Skies

Pacific Avenue released their debut single "In Your Arms" in May 2017, followed by "Sally" in early 2018[2] and "Excuse Me" in October 2018.[3]

On 16 August 2019, the group released their debut EP, Strawberries Skies with the group saying “The collection of songs on this EP were written at a time where we were all living together in a little beach shack in Woonona. This was our first time out of home and we were all experiencing the surreal and wonderful feeling of absolute freedom. During this time strong relationships were made, parties were frequent, and we were starting to understand ourselves individually. The songs on the EP encapsulate this feeling and tell of the story’s and emotions which come with the freedom of youth."[4] The EP was produced by Adrian Breakespear[5] and was supported with a national tour.[4]

2022–present: Flowers

In April 2022, it was announced the group had signed with BMG.[5]

The group released their debut studio album Flowers on 5 May 2023.[6] The album was preceded by the singles "Easy Love", "Give It Up for Yourself", "Leaving for London" and "Spin Me Like Your Records".[6]
