Their new album drops in September

More Big Scary Big Scary

Ahead of their third studio album Animal, Melbourne duo Big Scary have announced their first headline tour in about three years. 

Animal will be Tom Iansek and Jo Syme's follow-up to 2013's Not Art, with the national tour a chance for fans to hear new Big Scary material for the first time live. The pair will have an expanded live show with sax-man Gus Rigby, along with Christopher Port and Ted O'Neill helping round out their live sound.

Big Scary recently dished out a taste of Animal, due out 2 September, by way of Over Matter — check it out below. 

The tour will kick off in Brisbane on 30 September before moving onto Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide until 15 October.
