The Getaway Plan are a Victorian Alternative rock band. Since forming in November 2004, they have toured nationally with Taking Back Sunday and supported a number of other bands, including Unwritten Law, Alkaline Trio, Eighteen Visions, Silverstein, Strike Anywhere, Anberlin, Bodyjar, Antiskeptic, and I Killed The Prom Queen.
The group is known for its unique sound, combining pop melodies and 'screamo' rock in a blend described as "a case of At The Drive-In meets Jeff Buckley meets Underoath". In 2006, the band signed with Boomtown Records and released an EP, Hold Conversation. The label is said to have been chosen for the fact they do not control the music the band wishes to produce.
Tracks from the EP have received airplay on Australian national youth radio station Triple J, including medium rotation for the track "If The Suspense Doesn't Kill Us, Something Else Will..."
The Getaway Plan are known for their intense live shows.
