Official Press Release:
Since
Don't miss a beat with our FREE daily newsletter
heading to the US in June to
record, Melbourne
band The Getaway Plan has been working towards one hell of a return!
With an exciting full-length debut album, hard-hitting lead single and a stack
of tour dates lined up, The Getaway Plan arrive back in Oz next month to
headline the Boomtown Showdown 2007 tour.
For a group
of twenty year olds, there is no doubt that The Getaway Plan have
achieved more than almost anyone at their age. Since the release of their debut
EP, ‘Hold Conversation’ in 2006, they have been handpicked by both The Used and
Taking Back Sunday to support them on their sold out Australian tours, had a
huge amount of exposure via Triple J and played live-to-air on MTV’s “The Lair”
program. Most recently, they were given the opportunity to head to the US to record
their debut album, ‘Other Voices, Other Rooms’, with reknowned producer James
Paul Wisner (Underoath, New Found Glory, Dashboard Confessional). The album is
set for release in February 2008.
Now, as the
band prepares to headline this year’s national Boomtown Showdown tour, they
will release the album’s first single, ‘Streetlight’, on November 3. The track
is the perfect introduction to the diverse soundscape that is Other Voices, and
will give fans something to tie them over as they wait for the full-length
release. A film clip will accompany the single, with radio and TV being
serviced with their first taste of the highly anticipated debut in October.
The
Getaway Plan’s ‘Streetlight’
will be released with exclusive B-Sides for only $5 both digitally and on
compact disc, with fans having an opportunity to pre-order the record from
selected outlets as from mid September.
The
Getaway Plan will release Streetlight on November 3 via Boomtown / Shock, and
will headline the
Boomtown Showdown 2007 tour throughout November. Their debut album ‘Over
Voices, Other Rooms’
will be in stores February 2008.
Stay
tuned, as the Boomtown Showdown 2007 tour lineup & dates will be announced this week!
