The Nation Blue To Play New Material Live

Are they the world's best band?

More The Nation Blue The Nation Blue

The National Blue, Australia's best band, will be playing some of their first new material since 2009 at a show at Melbourne's The Tote.

Taking place Saturday 8 June, the suburban-punk wall-of-sweat Melbourne via-Tasmania outfit have been on-and-off the past few years, so the news of new material is really fucking exciting.

They'll be joined by Brisbane's No Anchor and Dead on the night, which is a one-off at the moment.
