The band will initially have other commitments, namely playing at the Byron Bay and Lorne legs of the festival, yet no one would be surprised if the Sydney three-piece were spotted on the trail come early January.

Drummer Dan Williams said the trio capped off their last visit to the state with a "killer" five-day hike on the Overland Track.

"We needed a bit of R&R. We'd finished the EP we'd been doing and we treated ourselves to a hike. It was really fun," Williams said.

"We've done a couple around Sydney and stuff. It's just good. You kind of need other activities on tour aside from like getting drunk and then going to the hotel room or going to the airport or something."

The band's sophomore album, Off The Edge of The Earth and Into Forever, was released on October 9 and will give Tasmanian fans a host of new tracks to dance along to at Marion Bay later on this year.

Williams said the band had relished the opportunity to try out some different recording techniques for the new album.

"We did vocals across a whole bunch of different places. Like we went out to (vocalist Dan McNamee's) parents' place out at Dural in the North-West of Sydney and set up a vocal booth in his childhood closet in his bedroom and sang the vocals from there.

"It had a really good sound, so we were very excited by that."

Williams said the band members were proud of their second full-length effort and joked that some new instrumentation might draw parallels with a fellow Sydney-based group.

"It's more exploratory I guess. We've tried to open our palette a little and use more colours in the painting.

"It's still fun and there's bangers and stuff and we even have an acoustic guitar on one song, which is terrifying - we're like Boy & Bear now."
