What comes before Part B?

PARTAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!

The debut LP is a milestone in any musician’s career. When offered the opportunity to record in another country, with a highly renowned producer in a world-class studio, one would imagine this would result in that memorable milestone. The four shaggy-haired, long legged boys from Adelaide band CITY RIOTS would have agreed not so long ago. However, time, personal growth and creative integrity, have re-written their story.

Debut single ‘Burning Me Out’ from CITY RIOTS’ ‘08 EP Socialize, was the first glimpse of their enticing indie-pop charm that caught the attention of national broadcaster triple j. As momentum spurred and an uncanny friend of a friend connection was revealed, five months later, CITY RIOTS found themselves shacked up in a two bedroom apartment in Chicago, USA working with producer Bjorn Thorsrud whose resume sights the likes of The Smashing Pumpkins and The Dandy Warhols.

October 7th has been a long time coming for CITY RIOTS. On that day they will unleash a five track EP, Matchsticks, featuring their brand new single of the same name. With Australia the firm focus for the foreseeable future,CITY RIOTS have already made an impressive impact upon their return. Leading into the 2011 EP release, City Riots have been touring extensively. A massive tour opening for British India and Boy in a Box and shows alongside Alpine and Papa vs Pretty and the national support for Ball Park Music, marked by a digital single release of ‘In My Head’. Another lap of the country quickly followed, supporting The Get Up Kids (US).

Live COSMO BLACK has supported Delphic, Miami Horror, The Swiss, Strange Talk and World's End Press.  'When Night Becomes the Morn' (Single) was released in 2010. DCUP remixed it, JJJ played it, Top Shop licensed it in the US, and bloggers blogged it.  Since then,  two COSMO BLACK bootleg remixes have charted in Hype Machine (HypeM.com) Top 20 global Popular Chars, with youtube views in the thousands.

Supports from Residents; MAT CANT, SWICK and J HEASY!
