"Shut Down" was the first single from Sons of Beaches and reached #17 on the Australian Singles Chart in 1982. It was written by drummer Bill McDonough and features lead vocals by James Reyne.

The other singles, "Daughters of the Northern Coast" and "Runaway Girls" / "Santa Claus is Back in Town" charted poorly at #76 and #88 respectively.
