Noah And The Whale Confirm Aus Touring Plans

It's early days to start throwing names around for the summer festival season but Brit indie outfit Noah & The Whale are determined to be one of them.

In an interview with theMusic, the folk-rock fused band said they are planning on returning for their second trip down under.

"We'll definitely be coming out either at the end of this year [or] beginning of next – but we're certainly planning to come out," admitted frontman Charlie Fink.

"Because our drummer [Michael Petulla] is Australian, he's always pestering us, Let's do Australian dates – and, I mean, to be honest, it doesn't take a lot of convincing to go back to Australia because we had such a great time last time we were there. So fingers crossed – sooner rather than later!"

Noah & The Whale first visited our shores for Splendour In The Grass in 2011.

Their latest album Heart Of Nowhere was released last week.
