One of the United Kingdom’s most dynamic and hardest working bands, Stereophonics are also one of its most celebrated, heading overseas in support of the critically acclaimed album Graffiti On The Train, one of their most revered and well-received albums in their illustrious career.

With a stellar career history spanning 21 years – from 1998’s BRIT Award for Best New Band, through five consecutive UK #1 albums, to last month’s release of their eighth studio recording – Stereophonics have time and again cemented themselves as one of the UK’s greatest rock bands.

Stereophonics acclaimed live performances are peppered with a heady repertoire of international smash singles such as ‘Dakota’, ‘Maybe Tomorrow’, ‘Have A Nice Day’, ‘Superman’, ‘Pick A Part That’s New’ and ‘Mr. Writer’, plus classic album tracks from their superb seven album back catalogue and their latest studio offering Graffiti On The Train.

Joining as special guests for Stereophonics’ East Coast dates are Atlas Genius, with the Adelaide indie rockers being at the center of reave reviews and international attention since their SXSW showcase and a massive two-month-plus US headline tour, including two sold out shows at New York City’s infamous Bowery Ballroom.

Having travelled America with bands such as Silversun Pickups, Wolf Gang and Imagine Dragons, teamed with strong performances on major US chat shows Jimmy Fallon, The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live and Letterman have propelled the band into the international spotlight, along with their hit debut single ‘Trojans’ with US sales of more than 250,000.

After signing to Warner Music and releasing their debut EP Through The Glass, Atlas Genius delivered their sophisticated and critically acclaimed album When It Was Now in April this year.
