THE Jensens will make their triumphant homecoming on Saturday, May 20.

Three of the Brisbane-based band's five members - Nathan Kendall, Bodi Lowrie and Joe White - grew up on the Coast, hailing from Palmwoods, Kawana and Wurtulla.

A gig at the Solbar in Maroochydore will be their first local show since releasing their new EP Sexless in March.

"Playing in our hometown, it's nice to have our families and our friends from school come,” Kendall told Pulse.

"It's also a good opportunity to road-test some of these new songs in front of an audience that we know will be receptive to it.

"I hope everybody comes along. We've got a fantastic guy playing keys with us which adds a whole other dynamic to our songs.”

Sexless was recorded at the same time as the band's previous release, Everybody Talks, in Brisbane's Plutonium studio with Steven Kempnich.

"Some of the songs on Sexless are some of our oldest songs, and some of the first songs Joe and I wrote,” he said.

"We'll play songs from both EPs: three off the first one, all of the songs off the second one, and one new song in there.”

The band members have been hard at work on new material which will form their next album.

"We're spending hours every day doing it (songwriting), which is completely different to how we've ever done it,” Kendall said.

"We have the equipment to record at home and we're all working less.

"There's a focus on not doing what we've done before.”

The new approach should translate into a shift in the band's sound, which has been described as garage pop with nods to The Beatles, The Buzzcocks and The Strokes.

"The Beatles are still very much a part of our musical influence, but our influences are very broad these days,” Kendall said.

"I can't stop listening to Fleet Foxes, Frank Ocean, Kendrick (Lamar) and BadBadNotGood. I'm also still on a craze of Radiohead, Animal Collective and other weird stuff.

"The weirder the better.”
