Oh Mercy Announce National Album Tour

Australian indie-rock outfit Oh Mercy have announced that they will be hitting the road for a national tour in support of their upcoming album, When We Talk About Love.

The fourth studio album is due out on June 19 and the tour will kick off this August. 

Oh Mercy fronted by lead man Alex Gow will perform shows in Melbourne, Sydney, Newcastle, Brisbane, Darwin, Fremantle and Perth. 

Talking about the new album Gow said: "Its genetics are the sum of my musical loves. Bacharach, Cohen, The Triffids. Grand, proud and not self-conscious."

"I accessed all that I’ve learnt, all that I know, or think I know, and importantly, all that I love, to create this record.”

The premiere video for the new single If You Come Around Tonight was also released this week — check it out below. 

Oh Mercy will also perform at this year's Splendour In The Grass in July just a month before they head out on the road to kick the national tour off in Melbourne on August 22. 

Supports acts will be announced soon and tickets are on sale now.
