VIDEO PREMIERE: The Buckleys - ‘See Your Folks Again’

After a year since we’ve heard new music from Australia’s beloved family band, The Buckleys, are back with their highly anticipated single, See Your Folks Again. The release comes just ahead of the group’s performance at CMC Rocks where they will share the stage with country superstars like Thomas Rhett, Cody Johnson, and Jon Pardi.

The music video showcases The Buckleys' deep country roots. The earnest lyrics and strong storytelling is paired perfectly with the organic production style video for See Your Folks Again. Encapsulating everything we already know and love about The Buckleys, and signals an exciting new chapter in their musical journey it’s a winner.

The track has already gained attention as The Buckleys are nominated for Group or Duo of the Year at the inaugural Countrytown Awards in Brisbane this month. Written by lead singer and bassist Sarah Buckley, alongside renowned #1 hit songwriter Ned Houston and KINGSWOOD’s Alexander Laska, the song features a fresh, tongue-in-cheek energy. Laska also produced the track in Melbourne with the band.

With Sarah (25), Lachlan (24), and Molly Buckley (22) leading the charge, the band is excited to announce the addition of their youngest sibling, Dylan Buckley (17), as their permanent drummer, marking the group’s transformation from a trio to a full four-piece family band.

“When we got into the studio, our only goal and intention was to pull out the most raw and honest emotion and tell some real stories. I think that comes with age and the fact that we’re all sorta entering a new phase in our lives - when we were introduced onto the scene, we were literally teenagers! So, it’s exciting to show people more depth, as we find it ourselves”, says Sarah on the track.

That being said, that fun, Buckley spark remains well and truly alight in this heartfelt yet playful new offering. She continues… “This song was actually inspired by my sister, Molly, after she had come home one day and told me about an epiphany she had just had where she realised that she was actually in love with the parents of the guy she was seeing, and not him at all. I thought it was a hilarious concept and predicament to find oneself in…so when I got into the studio with two of my great mates, Alexander Laska and Ned Houston, we really went to town with the whole idea! I love how it feels like a really beautiful, sentimental song, which in many ways it is that too, but if you actually listen to the lyrics it is so brutal”.

Award-winning producer Alexander Laska (KINGSWOOD), says on the new material he has been working on with the band, “Working with The Buckleys is a refreshing, endearing, albeit whiskey fuelled, experience in honest, straight from the heart country music. In a world where everyone is jumping on the band wagon with their own version of coca-cola country, this remains a palate-cleansing, no-nonsense or dictate other than to serve the intention—that being, tell your story and frame it in the way that feels most authentic to you.”
