Prepare to bliss out and bop to your new favourite unassuming dream pop duo, EGOISM. The lead single from their upcoming 2nd EP is called “Sorry” and it’s here to sedate you into sweet reverb euphoria.

The genesis of Egoism began on a High School bus that the Sydney-based duo caught to school together. They soon discovered their shared love of music and certain philosophies tied to it. It was these regular morning musings that became the catalyst for Scout Eastment (vocals/guitar) and Olive Rush (vocals/guitar) to start creating something together.  The duo were soon learning how to write songs and make music. They were constantly running melodies and lyrics past each other, hoping their songs could one day be played live to people that wouldn’t hate it.

It was during 2015 (while the pair were still in High School) that Scout and Olive assembled their band. They played any warehouse, shop front, or house party they could sneak their friends into. If you hung around the Marrickville area perhaps you were there? During this time they were also steadily dropping home-recorded singles online.


In 2016 the band were finally old enough to join the local band scene. They’re touring efforts earned them support slots for bands such as Flyying Colours, Stonefield and Deafcult.

In 2017 Egoism released their first EP “It’s Wearing Off”. 
Sorry is the band’s first single from their yet to be titled upcoming second EP.

“I wrote this song as a bit of a fuck you to the people who never say sorry for their own mistakes, but then always demand an apology, even if I’m the one who was hurt the most. Easily the most empowering song we’ve ever written ha-ha. We were really going for a The Veronicas meets Slowdive kind of vibe, essentially blending the music of our childhood with the music of our teenage years.”
– Scout Eastment  (vocals/guitar)

Sorry was recorded at the home studio of lo-fi wizard, Miles Devine AKA Raindrop. The session brought together a mix of old analog recording gear with a modern electronic twist.

Sorry will be digitally released 7th Sept 2018
