Meanwhile, Philadelphia’s The War on Drugs are making their first trip to Australia, bringing with them `their signature brand of rock, folk, blues and everything in between’ with choice selections from the albums Slave Ambient and Wagonwheel Blues.
If that wasn’t enough, you can also count on Multi-instrumentalist Zach Condon (a.k.a Beirut) to stir up audiences with the worldly sounds from his debut Gulag Orkestar all the way through to 2011 LP The Rip Tide.
