A Pierce Brothers Australian Tour 2014 has been announced as the musical siblings reveal the release date for their highly anticipated EP

Following on from managing to sell 15,000 CDs in a year without the aid of a record labelMelbourne multi-instrumentalists the Pierce Brothers are excited to reveal that The Night Tree EP will be released on Friday 30th May 2014.

To celebrate, the charismatic indie-folk duo are gearing up to hit the road once more this year for a huge 11-date tour, spanning capital cities and regional venues across Victoria, New South Wales, and Queensland.

Twin brothers Jack and Pat Pierce – who boast one of the most exhilarating live shows around – have amassed a fiercely loyal following over the last two years. The buzz band’s swelling fan base is a testament to their compelling collection of hook-laden songs.

Building upon fan favourites such as the 2013 single ‘Blind Boys Run’, all five tracks on The Night Tree capture a feeling of universality through creative instrumentation, poignant narratives and stomping, catchy-as-all-hell choruses.

Current single ‘It’s My Fault’ is a worldly tale, a lyrical exploration of forgiveness that builds over a steady beat before exploding into a cathartic, singalong chorus. The track is currently sitting in the Netherlands top 100 iTunes charts and receiving prime time radio play on Netherlands commercial radio giant 3FM – a momentous feat for the local artists.

Their overseas momentum is also building having played shows all over the UK – collecting new fans in each town they pass.

Get your daily dose of meta, rock, indie, pop, and everything else in between.

That includes Australia, where they’ve played all over, including performing to a sold-out crowd at Ding Dong Lounge recently, and the two-piece have literally stopped traffic when busking in Melbourne’s Bourke St Mall.

Don’t miss your chance to see the duo before your very eyes before they’re lured back to the throngs in Europe awaiting their return!
