The Fat Freddy’s Drop Australian Tour 2013 has announced a third Melbourne show for their Blackbird Tour, which now marks the biggest Australian tour ever for Fat Freddy’s Drop as they return to showcase their stunning new album.
Following on from their breathtaking audio-visual album preview at Sydney Opera House for Graphic 2012 (shortlisted by Sydney Morning Herald as one of the best live shows of the year), Fat Freddy’s Drop return to Australia with a brand new album, Blackbird, in tow, proving that good things come to those who wait.
Released Friday June 21st via Remote Control, Blackbird is an exceptional release in its own right. As a document of the band’s progression, it is something of a watershed record that perfectly encapsulates all influences of The Drop; with moments of Ethio-Jazz, Detroit Techno, Blues, Soul and much much more in the mix.
The perennial soul providers will perform four Australian shows in August/September as part of a worldwide celebration for the release of Blackbird.
With international demand for the band at an all time high around their third studio album release, Freddys are set to embark on a second run of shows in Europe for 2013. The October European tour features 21 headline shows across UK, France, Germany, Denmark, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, Italy and Portugal.
