A Tales In Space Australian Tour 2014 has been announced to coincide with the release of the Sydney electropop duo’s long awaited debut album Formula.

Set for release on 6th June (via MGM), Tales In Space celebrate the arrival of Formula by hitting the road for a five-date tour, including shows in Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne.

Bursting with quirky and imaginative indie-pop gems, Formula builds upon the same rousing, anthemic stylings of ‘Shades’, a track that featured in the top 35 songs played on Triple J in 2013.

‘Shades’ also won Tales In Space – who use a montage of samples, loops, radios, keyboards and triggers – the International John Lennon Songwriting Competition in the ‘Rock’ category, as well as being a finalist in the Vanda & Young Songwriting Competition.

From the buoyant, can’t-get-out-of-your-head chorus in ‘Grow Up Together’ to the cosmic rock of ‘In A Million Places At Once’, Formula‘s musical nuances are held firmly together by the group’s fun, creative style. A cathartic journey that explores the trials and tribulations of love, life and everything in-between, the uplifting collection will give you that ‘new lease on life’ feeling.

Recorded in their own studio, this is the start of an exciting new chapter for band mates Luke Bert and Simon Widauer. The synth-loving pair met while studying audio engineering, a shared passion that began their musical partnership – forming Tales in Space in 2009. Fast-forward to 2014 and we have Formula – a collection that builds upon years of hard work, cementing their ability to produce an array of infectious, dance-pop numbers.

Renowned for their animated live show, the upcoming July tour will be a chance for their loyal fans to hear Formula come alive in the flesh.
