Ben Howard, Nick Mulvey Team Up For Splendour Sideshows

Even though English folk troubadour Ben Howard returns to Australia ahead of the release of his second album, tracks from his 2011 album Every Kingdom are still sounding fresh.

One of the key mid-level artists on the Splendour In the Grass bill this year (which has the strongest mid-level line-up in years), he'll be playing three Australian sideshows, visiting Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.

Joining him for the run will be fellow English folk rocker Nick Mulvey.

Dates in theGuide below, tickets on sale 9am Friday 9 May.
