Saskwatch Announce New Shows And Drop Trippy Video

The launch for Nose Dive, the newest album from nine-piece Melburnian ensemble Saskwatch, keeps getting bigger, with the announcement today of an extra show in Melbourne and the addition of Hobart to the list of destinations for their impending June/July tour.

With the original Melbourne date of July 5 having sold out, the band has seen fit to slot in another appearance at the Corner Hotel on Thursday, July 3. In addition, they'll be swinging through the Tasmanian capital's Waratah Hotel on Friday, July 11.

The shows will complement the rest of the collective's 14-date national tour, which sees them pass through the state capitals and several regional locations, including Castlemaine, Gold Coast, Newcastle, Margaret River, Fremantle and Ballarat.

Concurrent with the announcement of the new shows comes the release of the band's glitchy, digitally driven clip for their single A Love Divine, which was created in collaboration with Canberran visual artist Danny Wild, and you can watch right here:

Saskwatch will be joined by a fine crop of support acts for the tour, including The Exit Crowd in Castlemaine, Little Odessa in Brisbane, Naughty Rappers Collective in Sydney, Newcastle and Canberra, Foam in Perth and Fremantle, Hollow Everdaze in Castlemaine and Ballarat, and DJ Fraser A. Gorman and New Gods in Melbourne. Troubadour Jim Lawrie will be a fixture of the entire tour, sans the Castlemaine show.
