VillagersIrish folk outfit Villagers have already been named on the Splendour In The Grass lineup, now they've announced a trio of gigs to go with the tour.
The band will visit NSW, VIC and WA for the intimate shows - a treat for fans who may have lucked out on SITG tix, which sold out yesterday. Local singer/songwriter Courtney Barnett has been named as the support act.
Villagers released their second album Awayland earlier this year, three years after their Mercury Award nominated debut Becoming A Jackal.
This is one of several Splendour sideshow announcements you can expect over the coming weeks, as we revealed yesterday. Darwin Deez and Of Monsters & Men shows have also been confirmed this morning.
Tickets are on sale now. Here are the dates:
Tuesday 30 July - Corner Hotel, Melbourne VIC
Thursday 1 August - Factory Theatre, Sydney NSW
Friday 2 August - Fly By Night, Fremantle WA
