Last week, Australian rockers Slowly Slowly almost broke social media announcing that their forthcoming album, Race Car Blues will finally be released on February 28th (Preorders here), and today they're backing that up with a...wait for it... NATIONWIDE ALBUM TOUR! The tour kicks off in April and will hit most cities on the east and west coast (sorry Radelaide!), and you can bet the band will be playing some fresh new tracks off the album for us all.
Frontman Ben Stewart is particularly excited about taking these new songs on the road:
"Over the past few years we have really come to love our time on stage, from someone who dreaded the spotlight a few years ago, I now feel so impatient to take this record around the country. I feel like a kid with a bunch of new toys or a painter with a set of new colours. I love how a live show evolves once you start to interpret the songs in front of an audience – the songs we have been playing for a few years have developed so much on stage to where although they have the same bones, they have become different beasts. I can’t wait to watch these songs get injected with the same energy and watch them stand on their own feet, taking us along for the ride. They mean so much to me and I have a feeling they will resonate with our truest fans."
Tickets for this tour are bound to fly, so get yours via here from 9am AEDT.
