Touché Amoré Announce 2017 Australian Tour

Hard-hitting LA favourites Touché Amoré have announced a week-long tour of Australia mid-this year in support of their acclaimed new studio full-length, Stage Four.

Kicking off in Brisbane with a licensed all-ages outing at The Triffid on Wednesday 5 July, the tour will blitz through Newcastle, Sydney (licensed AA), Melbourne (two shows — one AA, one 18+), Adelaide (licensed AA) and Perth, where they close out with an 18+ affair at Amplifier Bar on Wednesday 12 July.

The deeply personal Stage Four — the band's fourth album, fittingly enough — was released in September last year, and was heavily influenced by the passing of frontman Jeremy Bolm's mother from cancer in 2014.

It's picked up rave reviews from pretty much anyone who's come within earshot, and Australian audiences will have the chance to hear a choice selection of tunes from the record and the rest of Touché Amoré's decade-spanning repertoire when the band touch down for their national run in a few months' time.

They'll be joined for the sojourn by respected US rockers Turnover, whose most recent album is 2015's sophomore LP Peripheral Vision, though new non-album single, Humblest Pleasures, landed last year. 

Touché Amoré's Stage Four is out now through Epitaph Records.

Tickets for the tour will go on sale from 9am local time this Friday, 24 February.
