“a near-perfect set of six songs … Even more assured than their album, New Songs For Old Problems is sassy and sure-footed. With this sort of momentum, they could conquer the world.”
STACK Magazine
“Middle Kids deliver six tracks that highlight their skill of crafting stimulating lyrics and catchy instrumentals. It’s the kind of record you can put on for any mood – it’s happy, it’s sad; it’s pensive and it’s playful …”
The Music
“Middle Kids return with a new mini-album and a blossoming sense of self-belief … Middle Kids are plucky and those packed out Australian dates are testament to just how far they’ve come in the year since their debut Lost Friends.”
Line Of Best Fit
“Across New Songs For Old Problem’s six tracks, it seems Middle Kids are trying to one-up their debut, and it seems they just might have done it.”

Ahead of their biggest headline tour to date, beloved Sydney rockers Middle Kids are today thrilled to announce a three-part video series titled ‘Home Sessions’ – a charming look into the band’s touring and home life, featuring interview snippets and stripped-back live performances.
The first, out now, sees Middle Kids discuss their upcoming tour and frontwoman Hannah Joy’s pregnancy, plus a dazzling piano rendition of the band’s hit single ‘Real Thing’.

Produced by Tim Fitz and recorded at their own studio in Sydney, ‘New Songs For Old Problems’ heralds what has already been a massive 2019 for the band. Following 2 stellar singles, ‘Real Thing’ and ‘Beliefs & Prayers’, and a sold out Australian headline tour, Middle Kids jetted off to the US where they joined Local Natives on yet another run of sold out shows.
‘New Songs For Old Problems’ follows Middle Kids’ critically acclaimed debut long-player ‘Lost Friends’. With an ARIA top 10 chart result under their belt the band toured the world, including UK and European dates with Bloc Party and a sold out show at London’s Village Underground, with performances on several US TV shows including Conan, Jimmy Kimmel and The Late Late Show with James Corden.
They were nominated for an ARIA Award for Best Rock Act and staked their claim as one of Australia’s most in demand live bands with full houses on their national album tour. They landed at #64 on triple j’s Hottest 100 of 2018 with ‘Mistake’, and picked up triple j’s prestigious Album of the Year award.
