Explosions In The Sky announce Australian tour supports

Joining instrumental Texan quartet Explosions In The Sky on their return to Australia this December will be Melbourne’s Harmony, bringing their almighty concoction of rock, blues and balladry to the Forum Theatre and Brisbane’s Hi Fi, and opening The Metro in Sydney will be the powerfully dynamic four-piece Charge Group. Tickets to both Melbourne and Sydney shows are selling quickly!

Explosions In The Sky’s intense live show is equal parts romance and tragedy, their beautiful melodies have the tendency to ignite into head-spinning walls of noise. Made up of Mark Smith, Michael James and Munaf Rayani on guitars and Christopher Hrasky on drums, the band signed to Temporary Residence Limited in 2000 after one listen to their demo, which was submitted by Texan allies the American Analog Set with a note simply stating "This totally fucking destroys." The band have since released seven albums, the latest being Take Care, Take Care, Take Care, described by the BBC as an ”eye-opening surge of splendour, like the first gasp of a newborn baby taking in the world for the very first time.”

In addition to the already announced Meredith Music Festival, Explosions In The Sky will bring their epically moving and inspiring show to the Forum in Melbourne, The Metro in Sydney and The Hi Fi in Brisbane.
