After cancelling their February tour due to the ailing health of keyboardist Heather Shannon, who was diagnosed with a unique type of ovarian cancer, The Jezabels have announced Shannon is fighting fit again and the band are ready to hit the road once more.
“We are so thrilled to be announcing this new tour after the heartbreak of cancelling our tour earlier this year. Heather is feeling strong again after her treatment and we are all impassioned and eager to finally give SYNTHIA the tour she deserves,” they write.
“We were so touched by the outpouring of support toward us over the course of this year, we cannot think of any better way to show our gratitude than bringing SYNTHIA out on the road. We cannot wait to introduce her to you all, to see your beautiful faces and to celebrate the end of this unique and challenging year.”
Joining The Jezabels for the tour, which is set to kick off in October, will be Melbourne’s Ali Barter. triple j have been pumping her singles ‘Far Away’ and ‘Hypercolour’ virtually non-stop and now the classically trained singer and songwriter is taking her incredible talents on the road.
