The Coronas Announce Australian 'Trust The Wire' Album Tour

Irish rockers The Coronas are set to return to Australian shores next month to reacquaint themselves with their army of local fans on the heels of their fifth full-length, Trust The Wire.

Hitting both east and west coasts on the jaunt, The Coronas will kick off in the most fitting of settings — at Fortitude Valley's Irish watering hole Finn McCool's, in Brisbane — before taking their globally acclaimed show to Sydney, Perth and Melbourne.

The successor to 2014's The Long Way, Trust The Wire landed back in June, heading to #1 on the charts in their homeland and bringing the band their best such result to date, making four of their five albums top-three placers on the ladder.

Led by their shimmering single We Couldn't Fake It, the album takes a long look at relationships both personal and professional, the song itself being a reflection on the band's decision not to sign with a major label — despite multiple opportunities to do so — and instead pursue their career and creative vision on their own independent terms.

"We had to ask ourselves why we do this and what’s important to us," the band said in a joint statement. "Is our aim to be as big as possible or be the best band we can? Our motivation had always been to make music that we love and keep improving. Maybe we lost sight of that. We had to step aside to refocus and, in doing that, we got our ambition back."

That ambition is set to carry them across the oceans back to one of their homes away from home next month, where a legion of expat and locally bred fans await them with open arms.

Tickets for The Coronas' Trust The Wire tour are available now.
