Melbourne band Slowly Slowly have announced a huge tour of regional Australia, taking in 17 shows this winter.
Beginning in Gold Coast on Friday, August 5th, the four-piece will head to towns including Torquay, Frankston, Camden, and Croydon, before concluding the tour in Mackay on Saturday, October 8th (see full dates below). Tickets for the regional tour go on sale this Thursday, June 9th at 9am local time via the band’s official website.
“This year we want to see some new parts of Australia and return to some of our favourite spots,” frontman Ben Stewart says. “Some of our fondest memories are in these towns – it’s time to replace them with new ones. It’s been a while between drinks and we are stoked to be back on the road again.”
The under-18s show in Croydon on Friday, September 16th carries extra importance, with the town and venue being a huge part of Stewart’s musical journey. “Croydon is where I grew up and we’ll be playing at the venue where I played my first ever show at age 15,” he explains. “That was why we insisted it go on the tour!”
