After

selling out almost every show on their national Other Voices, Other

Don't miss a beat with our FREE daily newsletter

Rooms album tour, THE GETAWAY PLAN are getting ready to embark on their

largest headline journey yet. 



Announced just two weeks ago,

tickets are already selling fast. The ‘Where the City Meets The Sea’

Tour - named after their latest hit single - will run from June to

August, taking in nineteen cities and regional centers around the

country. Due to intense demand, three new shows have been added! 


THE

GETAWAY PLAN will now also play an all ages show in Brisbane on 19 July

at The University of Queensland’s Red Room, in Toowoomba on 20 July at

the Empire Church Theatre and in Rockhampton on 26 July at O’Dowds

Irish Pub. 


With

them, they bring New Zealand’s GOODNIGHT NURSE and Melbournians CLOSURE

IN MOSCOW on the road as supports. GOODNIGHT NURSE is New Zealand’s

answer to honest and catchy pop punk. Since forming in 2001, GOODNIGHT

NURSE has released two full-studio albums - the first, ‘Always and

Never’ went gold in their home country and the latest, ‘Keep Me On Your

Side’ (recorded here in Australia), has so far spawned the radio

singles ‘The Night’ and ‘I Need You’. In 2007 they won the MTV

Australia Video Music Award for NZ Viewers Choice and the band continue

to have great success with ‘The Night’ as the track spends its 10th week

in the NZ Top 40 Charts. Having previously played alongside

internationals such as Fall Out Boy, Story Of The Year, HIM and One

Republic, GOODNIGHT NURSE will strut their stuff at all twenty shows on

THE GETAWAY PLAN’s Where The City Meets The Sea tour.


At

an average age of just 21, five-piece rock outfit CLOSURE IN MOSCOW has

in their short time as a band achieve great heights - touring with

artists including Saosin, Aiden, Coheed & Cambria, A Static Lullaby

and played to packed crowds at their own headline shows. With a brand

new label (Taperjean Records – Fifty Sixx, Limbeck, Stealing O’Neal and

Copeland), solid international radio play and increasing pressure from

American and European audiences to tour, CLOSURE IN MOSCOW cement

themselves as one of Australia’s most promising young acts. Be sure to

get to the shows early to see CLOSURE IN MOSCOW warm up the room as

only they know how.

With

THE GETAWAY PLAN in line to become one of Australia’s greatest success

stories, tickets for the ‘Where The City Meets The Sea’ tour are sure

to sell out. Catch them in all their glory while you can still say you

we’re there before the take over.
