Slow Club News

Slow Club Australian Tour supports!!!

Here are the Slow Club Australian supports!

Opening proceedings in Sydney will be Al Grigg's (Red Riders, Straight Arrows) and Tom Wallace (Red Riders) new garage-pop project Palms. With their summery, albeit anti-summer rock music, Palms will be joined by DIY girl/boy folk duo Achoo! Bless You. Having supported the likes of Passenger and Matthew Barber, Slow Club are yet another reputable act to add to the duo's live discography

Warming the stage in Melbourne will be Australia's brightest surf-pop quartet The Harpoons. Sounding as if they've been plucked straight from the 60s, this loveable band will have you doing the boogaloo, the shimmy and any other jig from a lost generation. Maintaining the good vibrations, jangle-pop group Monnone Alone will also be playing a set, on the back of their various 2011 single releases.

Over in Adelaide, spirits will be running high when indie-pop seven-piece 20th Century Graduates play main support. With music quoted as being like 'a shot of red cordial', their carefree, catchy tunes and brass section will have you in tears and bouncing from wall to wall.
