Band Of Skulls are heading to Australia in June in support of a brand new album.
The rock trio out of Southampton are not far away from dropping their third album, Himalayan, after having secured some very positive Australian exposure with 2012’s Sweet Sour, which hit No.35 on the ARIA album chart thanks to the success of singles ‘The Devil Takes Care Of His Own’, ‘Sweet Sour’ and ‘Bruises’.
Himalayan is due at the end of March and was recorded with English producer Nick Launay, who has previously worked with Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Arcade Fire, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
Tickets to the Band Of Skulls Aussie tour will be available from Tuesday, February 18, however cheeky pre-sale tickets can be obtained by signing up to the Secret Sounds newsletter.
