Just weeks after wrapping up a tour in support of current single ‘Raiders’, Owl Eyes is at it again! The girl has just announced a new 16-date tour around the country, taking in the usual metro centres as well as regional dates in Hepburn Springs, Dunsborough and Byron Bay. Owl Eyes will also be teaming up with label mates Stonefield for a trio of shows in Tasmania, including a one-off under-18′s show in Hobart. All the info can be found on our Tours page.

Tijuana dub stars
In what’s probably a wet dream for any aspiring roots band, Tijuana Cartel have just been confirmed as the supporting act for legendary Kiwi crew Salmonella Dub when they tour Australia’s east coast this October. It’s great news for the Queensland outfit, who are currently busy piecing together a new album while new single ‘Letting It Go’ gets a work out on the radio.
The untitled third album, due out in the coming months, is shaping up as a bit of a departure from Tijuana Cartel’s trademark sound, with lots of electronic elements adding to their organic instrumentation. For now, check out our tours page for all the info on TC’s upcoming shows with SD!
