Stella Donnelly & Alex The Astronaut To Embark On Co-headline Australian Tour

Two of Australia's most exciting artists — Stella Donnelly and Alex The Astronaut​ — are teaming up this year for a massive co-headline tour of the country. 

Set to kick off in April, the burgeoning songwriters will perform shows in Byron Bay, Gold Coast, South Bank, Sunshine Coast, Sydney, Fremantle, Margaret River, Adelaide, Hobart, Melbourne, Ballarat and Bendigo.

After meeting at last year's BIGSOUND​, which saw Donnelly take out the inaugural Levi's Music Prize and Alex score the highest-attended showcase of the week, the two quickly struck up a friendship.

"We both think the other is funny and we like each other’s music," they said.

"Stella can’t really bake. And Alex just made her first cake. Thought it’d be a good recipe to head out on the road together!"
