Minnesota rockers Motion City Soundtrack have released their Soundwave sidewaves ahead of the Australia-wide sold out festival, and they will be joined by fellow Soundwave acts The Early November and Deaf Havana for two big dates in Melbourne and Sydney.

Powering through their 14-year career, punk rock Motion City Soundtrack are gloating in the success of their 2012 release Go which has been described as the most developed and mature album of their entire catalogue. The guys are taking time from their busy Soundwave schedule to bring their five-piece punk outfit to headlining Australian shows, also joined by two critically acclaimed acts.


Much to the excitement of fans, New Jersey's The Early November announced their reformation in 2011 after an indefinite hiatus called in 2007, releasing their third record In Currents last year in an introspective fashion that showed the guys had grown a lot from their initial split.

Additionally, Deaf Havana will round out the three international acts venturing to Sydney and Melbourne, the English alt. rockers on an unstoppable roll with Australia in their sights and with a new record Fools And Worthless Liars under their belt, fans can also experience their brutally honest storytelling away from Soundwave.

Monday 25 February – The HiFi – Melbourne (18+)
Tickets from The HiFi.
Thursday 28 February – The Factory – Sydney (Licensed All Ages)
