Looptroop Rockers And Sage Francis Unveil Co-Headline Australian Tour

Making the trip Down Under for the first time, Sweden's massive hip-hop outfit Looptroop Rockers have announced five dates across the country this December, and they'll be bringing their American mate Sage Francis and local outfit Tenfold along for the ride.

Fans in capital cities Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth will get their first chance to catch the act from Västerås who have cemented their position in the world's hip-hop scene for over a decade.

Their messages of politics, independence, love, death and life have transcended national boundaries making them popular throughout Europe, America and Australia, while their five studio albums under the Looptroop Rockers moniker have come to their career highlight with 2013's collective reunion record, Mitt hjärta är en bomb.

Check out Professional Dreamers from their 2011 record of the same title.

Sage Francis joins the fray as co-headliner, the Miami-born, Rhode Island-based hip-hop master well-known as the “forefather of indie-hop” and the first hip-hop artist signed to Epitaph Records. Get yourself a taste of 2010's The Best Of Times below.

Additionally joined in the support slot by Frankston, Victoria's Tenfold, Looptroop Rockers and Sage Francis will begin their journey around Australia on Thursday 12 December in Brisbane's HiFi before winding up in Perth on Wednesday 18 December at the Villa Nightclub.
