Just as AFL finally won Sydney, so has Back Pocket Records – in the form of Men With Day Jobs. The Sin City trio’s first eponymous CD, five years in the making (well, that’s day jobs for you!) draws from diverse influences in pop, rock, blues, funk, folk, groove, country, surf music and more. Strong vocal harmonies and sharp lyrics range from the socially savvy to the personally passionate with detours via the queer and quirky. The group’s name is a reminder of long-gone days when the boys made the usual mistake – never again. See bonus nostalgic photo… hey, that’s not Back Pocket stalwart Ken S in bad 70s blond curls is it?
